necessary processes and systems to 

comply with the reporting requirements 

in 2 CFR part 170 should you receive 

funding under the competition. This 

does not apply if you have an exception 

under 2 CFR 170.110(b). 

(b) At the end of your project period, 

you must submit a final performance 

report, including financial information, 

as directed by the Secretary. If you 

receive a multiyear award, you must 

submit an annual performance report 

that provides the most current 

performance and financial expenditure 

information as directed by the Secretary 

under 34 CFR 75.118. The Secretary 

may also require more frequent 

performance reports under 34 CFR 

75.720(c). For specific requirements on 

reporting, please go to www.ed.gov/ 

fund/grant/apply/appforms/ 

appforms.html. 

(c) Under 34 CFR 75.250(b), the 

Secretary may provide a grantee with 

additional funding for data collection 

analysis and reporting. In this case the 

Secretary establishes a data collection 

period. 

4. Performance Measures: For the 

purpose of Department reporting under 

34 CFR 75.110, we have established the 

following performance measures for the 

NAL@ED program: 

(a) The number and percentage of 

students who attain proficiency in a 

Native language as determined by each 

grantee through pre- and postassessments of Native language 

proficiency; 

(b) The number and percentage of 

participating students who make 

progress in learning a Native language, 

as determined by each grantee, through 

pre- and post-assessments of Native 

language proficiency; 

(c) The number and percentage of 

participating students who show an 

improvement in academic outcomes, as 

measured by academic assessments or 

other indicators; and 

(d) The difference between the 

average daily attendance of participating 

students and the average daily 

attendance of all students in the 

comparison group (e.g., school, LEA, 

Tribe, or other). 

These measures constitute the 

Department’s indicators of success for 

this program. Consequently, we advise 

an applicant for a grant under this 

program to carefully consider these 

measures in conceptualizing the 

approach to, and evaluation for, its 

proposed project. Each grantee will be 

required to provide, in its annual 

performance and final reports, data 

about its progress in meeting these 

measures. 

5. Continuation Awards: In making a 

continuation award under 34 CFR 

75.253, the Secretary considers, among 

other things: Whether a grantee has 

made substantial progress in achieving 

the goals and objectives of the project; 

whether the grantee has expended funds 

in a manner that is consistent with its 

approved application and budget; and, 

if the Secretary has established 

performance measurement 

requirements, whether the grantee has 

made substantial progress in achieving 

the performance targets in the grantee’s 

approved application. 

In making a continuation award, the 

Secretary also considers whether the 

grantee is operating in compliance with 

the assurances in its approved 

application, including those applicable 

to Federal civil rights laws that prohibit 

discrimination in programs or activities 

receiving Federal financial assistance 

from the Department (34 CFR 100.4, 

104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY 

Agency Information Collection 

Extension 

AGENCY: Office of Energy Efficiency and 

Renewable Energy, Department of 

Energy. 

ACTION: Notice and request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Energy 

(DOE), pursuant to the Paperwork 

Reduction Act of 1995, intends to 

extend for three years, an information 

collection request with the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB). 

DATES: Comments regarding this 

proposed information collection must 

be received on or before August 2, 2022. 

If you anticipate difficulty in submitting 

comments within that period, contact 

the person listed in the FOR FURTHER

INFORMATION CONTACT section as soon as 

possible. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments may be 

sent to Maria Vargas, EE–5A/Forrestal 

Building, 1000 Independence Avenue 

SW, Washington, DC 20585, by fax at 

(202) 586–8177, or by email at 

maria.vargas@ee.doe.gov. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Requests for additional information or 

copies of the information collection 

instrument and instructions should be 

directed to Maria Vargas, EE–5A/ 

Forrestal Building, 1000 Independence 

Avenue SW, Washington, DC 20585, by 

fax at (202) 586–8177, or by email at 

maria.vargas@ee.doe.gov or by 

telephone (202) 586–7899. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Comments 

are invited on: (a) Whether the extended 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information shall have 

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including through the 

use of automated collection techniques 

or other forms of information 

technology. 

This information collection request 

contains: 

(1) OMB No.: 1910–5141; 

(2) Information Collection Request 

Title: Department of Energy Better 

Buildings Initiative Voluntary Pledge 

Program;

33770 Federal Register / Vol. 87, No. 107 / Friday, June 3, 2022 / Notices 

(3) Type of Review: Extension with 

Revision of a Currently Approved 

Collection; 

(4) Purpose: This Information 

Collection Request applies to four 

Department of Energy (DOE) voluntary 

leadership initiatives that fall under 

DOE’s Better Buildings Initiative: (1) 

The Better Buildings Challenge; (2) the 

Better Buildings, Better Plants Program 

(Better Plants); (3) the Better Buildings 

Alliance; and (4) the Better Climate 

Challenge. Five new information 

collection instruments are proposed so 

that Better Climate Challenge partners 

can share details about their projects 

and submit annual portfolio-wide 

emissions reductions data, and 

additionally so that the program may 

collect updates regarding partner’s 

waste reduction progress. Other preexisting collection forms are being 

amended for clarity and to reduce 

burden on respondents. Also, the total 

number of respondents and response 

time for individual program areas is 

being adjusted to align with practical 

experience and to account for changes 

to the program growth over time. For 

example, because many Better Buildings 

and Better Plants partners have joined 

the Better Climate Challenge, we 

anticipate a reduction in the amount 

time spent on Better Buildings and 

Better Plants documents as these 

organizations focus their efforts on the 

Better Climate Challenge. 

The leadership initiatives in the 

Better Buildings Initiative covered 

under this Information Collection 

Request are intended to drive greater 

energy, water efficiency, and emissions 

reduction in the commercial, public, 

residential, data center, and industrial 

marketplace to reduce pollution, cut 

costs, and create jobs. This is 

accomplished by highlighting the ways 

participants overcome market barriers to 

greater efficiency and decarbonization 

with replicable solutions. The program 

showcases real solutions and partners 

with industry leaders to better 

understand policy and technical 

opportunities. There are three types of 

information to be collected from 

primary participants, also referred to as 

‘‘Partners:’’ (1) Background data, 

including contact information, a 

partnership agreement form, logo(s), 

information needed to support public 

announcements, updates on 

participants’ showcase projects, and an 

energy savings/emissions reductions 

goals; (2) Portfolio-wide energy 

performance information; and (3) 

Information on market innovations 

participants are including in their 

energy efficiency and decarbonization 

processes. Background data is primarily 

used to develop website content that is 

publically available. Portfolio-wide 

facility-level energy performance and 

emissions reduction information is used 

by DOE to measure the participants’ 

progress in meeting the goals of the 

program, as well as to aggregate the 

change in energy and decarbonization 

performance and related metrics for the 

entire program. Information on market 

innovation is used to highlight 

successful strategies participants use to 

overcome challenges, and is made 

publicly available. Additional 

background information is being 

collected from ‘‘Allies,’’ which are 

financial organizations that make a 

public commitment to support energy 

efficiency and decarbonization. 

Background information including 

name, dollars committed to the market, 

and a company logo is also used to 

develop publically available website 

content. Responses to the DOE’s 

Information Collection Request are 

voluntary. 

(5) Annual Estimated Number of 

Respondents: 841. 

(6) Annual Estimated Number of 

Total Responses: 841. 

(7) Annual Estimated Number of 

Burden Hours: 1,854.25. 

(8) Annual Estimated Reporting and 

Recordkeeping Cost Burden: $84,869. 

Statutory Authority: Section 421 of 

the Energy Independence and Security 

Act of 2007 (42 U.S.C. 17081); Section 

911 of the Energy Policy Act of 2005, as 

amended (42 U.S.C. 16191).
