    Abstract: This is a request for a new information collection. The 
Rural, Insular, and Native Achievement Programs (RINAP) administers 
Section 1121 of Title I, Part A of the ESEA; Title II of Public Law 
108-118 (Supplemental Education Grant (SEG)), CARES Act--Outlying 
Areas; Title III of CRRSA--Outlying Areas, Sections 2005 and 11006(2-3) 
of the ARP; Title V, Part B of the ESEA (Rural Education Achievement 
Program), Title VI, Part B of the ESEA (Native Hawaiian Education); and 
Title VI, Part C of the ESEA (Alaska Native Education). Periodic 
progress updates, phone, virtual, or in-person conversations during a 
fiscal year with authorized representatives and project directors help 
ensure grantees are making progress toward meeting program goals and 
objectives. The information shared with RINAP helps inform the 
selection and delivery of technical assistance to grantees and aligns 
structures, processes, and routines so RINAP can monitor the connection 
between grant administration and intended outcomes.
