Department of Education (ED), in 

accordance with the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 

3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general

requirements and provide the requested 

data in the desired format. ED is 

soliciting comments on the proposed 

information collection request (ICR) that 

is described below. The Department of 

Education is especially interested in 

public comment addressing the 

following issues: (1) Is this collection 

necessary to the proper functions of the 

Department; (2) will this information be 

processed and used in a timely manner; 

(3) is the estimate of burden accurate; 

(4) how might the Department enhance 

the quality, utility, and clarity of the

Abstract: The National Center for

Department of Education (ED), requests 


rmajette on DSK2TPTVN1PROD with 
65542 Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 209 / Monday, October 29, 2012 / Notices 

OMB approval under the NCES system 

clearance for the Quick Response 

Information System (QRIS) (OMB 

#1850–0733) to conduct data collection 

for the Fast Response Survey System 

(FRSS) survey #105 on the condition of 

public school facilities. Congress has 

appropriated funds for NCES to conduct 

an FRSS survey on the condition of 

public school facilities, with a First 

Look report on the results to be released 

in late 2013. FRSS previously 

conducted a survey on this topic in 

1999. The 2012–13 FRSS survey will 

cover many of the same topics as the 

1999 survey, but will use a revised 

questionnaire. The current survey 

reflects lessons learned from the 1999 

survey, topics and issues identified 

through literature review, with 

modifications based on two rounds of 

feasibility calls and two rounds of 

pretest calls (OMB# 1850–0803) with 

public school district personnel most 

knowledgeable about school facilities. 

As was done in 1999, schools will be 

sampled, but surveys will be sent to 

districts, where facilities personnel and 

records are located. Changes to 

questionnaires were made based on the 

feedback received from pretests. A 

revised questionnaire is being submitted 

with this request for OMB clearance.
