### 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.

Dated: October 23, 2012. Darrin A. King, Director, Information Collection Clearance Division, Privacy, Information and Records Management Services, Office of Management.
