Title of Collection: Federal Student 

Loan Program: Internship/Residency 

and Loan Debt Burden Forbearance 

Forms. 

OMB Control Number: 1845–0018. 

Type of Review: A revision of a 

currently approved ICR. 

Respondents/Affected Public: 

Individuals and Households. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 2,215,812. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 181,495. 

Abstract: These forms serve as the 

means by which borrowers in the 

William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan 

(Direct Loan), Federal Family Education 

Loan (FFEL) and the Federal Perkins 

Loan (Perkins Loan) Programs may 

request forbearance of repayment on 

their loans if they meet certain 

conditions. The U.S. Department of 

Education and other loan holders uses 

the information collected on these forms 

to determine whether a borrower meets 

the eligibility requirements for the 

specific type of forbearance. The Service 

forbearance (SERV Forb) and the 

Student Loan Debt forbearance (SLDB 

Forb) forms are currently approved 

under OMB No. 1845–0018. The 

General forbearance (GEN Forb) form is 

currently approved under OMB No. 

1845–0031. For greater simplicity and to 

make it easier to maintain consistency 

among the various forbearance forms, 

the Department is consolidating the two 

current collections into a single 

collection under OMB No. 1845–0018. 

This review request merges the number 

of respondents/responses/burden hours 

for both collections.

Abstract: To determine compliance 

with the NAAQS, State air monitoring 

agencies are required to use, in their air 

quality monitoring networks, air 

monitoring methods that have been 

formally designated by the EPA as either 

reference or equivalent methods under 

EPA regulations at 40 CFR part 53. A 

manufacturer or seller of an air 

monitoring method (e.g., an air 

monitoring sampler or analyzer) that 

seeks to obtain such EPA designation of 

one of its products must carry out 

prescribed tests of the method. The test 

results and other information must then 

be submitted to the EPA in the form of 

an application for a reference or 

equivalent method determination in 

accordance with 40 CFR part 53. The 

EPA uses this information, under the 

provisions of Part 53, to determine 

whether the particular method should 

be designated as either a reference or 

equivalent method. After a method is 

designated, the applicant must also 

maintain records of the names and 

mailing addresses of all ultimate 

purchasers of all analyzers or samplers 

sold as designated methods under the 

method designation. If the method 

designated is a method for fine 

particulate matter (PM2.5) and coarse 

particulate matter (PM10¥2.5), the 

applicant must also submit a checklist 

signed by an ISO-certified auditor to 

indicate that the samplers or analyzers 

sold as part of the designated method 

are manufactured in an ISO 9001- 

registered facility. Also, an applicant 

must submit a minor application to seek 

approval for any proposed 

modifications to previously designated 

methods. 

Form Numbers: None. 

Respondents/affected entities: Private 

manufacturers, states. 

Respondent’s obligation to respond: 

Required to obtain the benefit of EPA 

designation under 40 CFR part 53. 

Submission of some information that is 

claimed by the applicant to be 

confidential business information may 

be necessary to make a reference or 

equivalent method determination. The 

confidentiality of any submitted 

information identified as confidential 

business information by the applicant 

will be protected in full accordance 

with 40 CFR 53.15 and all applicable 

provisions of 40 CFR part 2. 

Estimated number of respondents: 22 

(total). 

Frequency of response: Annual. 

Total estimated burden: 7,492 hours 

(per year). Burden is defined at 5 CFR 

1320.03(b). 

Total estimated cost: $846.791 (per 

year), which includes $172,692 

annualized capital or operation & 

maintenance costs. 

Changes in the Estimates: There is no 

change in hours in the total estimated 

respondent hour burden compared with 

the ICR currently approved by OMB. 

Based on a review of historical BLS 

indices for 2020 and 2024, cost index 

factors were used to update the estimate 

2024 respondent costs for capital/startup costs and O&M costs.
