Title of Collection: ESEA Fiscal 

Waiver Requests. 

OMB Control Number: 1810–0760. 

Type of Review: A new information 

collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local, and Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 53. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 53. 

Abstract: Due to the continued 

extraordinary circumstances created by 

the COVID–19 pandemic and 

unprecedented obstacles students, 

educators, and schools are facing during 

the 2020–2021 school year, the U.S. 

Department of Education (the 

Department) is offering each State 

educational agency (SEA) the 

opportunity to request waivers that will 

afford additional fiscal flexibility for 

certain funds received under the 

Elementary and Secondary Education 

Act of 1965 (ESEA), pursuant to the 

Department’s authority under section 

8401 of the ESEA. Specifically, the 

Department is offering a waiver for an 

SEA to be able to approve a local 

educational agency (LEA) to carry over 

more than 15 percent of its fiscal year 

(FY) 2020 Title I, Part A funds (i.e., the 

Title I, Part A funds that will become 

carryover funds on October 1, 2021), 

even if the LEA has received a waiver 

from its SEA to exceed this limitation 

for its FY 2018 or FY 2019 Title I, Part 

A funds. Second, we are also offering 

flexibility to each SEA to be able to 


jbell on DSKJLSW7X2PROD with NOTICES
Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 134 / Friday, July 16, 2021 / Notices 37749 

extend for itself and its subgrantees the 

period of availability of FY 2019 funds 

for programs included in the State’s 

consolidated State plan to allow 

additional time to obligate those funds. 

As the end of the current school year 

approaches and districts and schools 

continue to plan for the 2021–2022 

school year, knowing whether their SEA 

is granted the invited waivers is 

essential to informing their planning 

because it provides more certainty about 

the availability of Federal funds for 

ESEA programs. Providing a 

streamlined process for SEA waiver 

requests will speed the process for both 

the SEA and the Department and help 

ensure State and local staff are able to 

maintain focus on the pressing needs of 

students. Any additional delay will 

have a negative impact on schools and 

students. In order to reduce the burden 

on States, the Department has created an 

optional template for States to collect 

the information required under ESEA 

section 8401 to request waivers of 

certain fiscal requirements. The optional 

template requests only information that 

is required under ESEA section 8401. 

The Department obtained OMB 

approval through emergency processing, 

and is now offering the public an 

opportunity to comment on this 

information collection.
