data in the desired format. ED is 

soliciting comments on the proposed 

information collection request (ICR) that 

is described below. The Department of 

Education is especially interested in 

public comment addressing the 

following issues: (1) is this collection 

necessary to the proper functions of the 

Department; (2) will this information be 

processed and used in a timely manner; 

(3) is the estimate of burden accurate; 

(4) how might the Department enhance 

the quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (5) how 

might the Department minimize the 

burden of this collection on the 

respondents, including through the use 

of information technology. Please note 

that written comments received in 

response to this notice will be 

considered public records. 

Title of Collection: ARP–HCY State 

Coordinators Survey. 

OMB Control Number: 1810–NEW. 

Type of Review: A new information 

collection. 

Respondents/Affected Public: State, 

Local, and Tribal Governments. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Responses: 52. 

Total Estimated Number of Annual 

Burden Hours: 52. 

Abstract: The American Rescue Plan 

Act of 2021 (ARP) included an 

unprecedented $800 million to support 

the specific needs of homeless children 

and youth via the American Rescue Plan 

Elementary and Secondary School 

Emergency Relief—Homeless Children 

and Youth (ARP–HCY) Fund. State 

educational agencies (SEAs) and local 

educational agencies (LEAs) must use 

ARP–HCY funds to identify homeless 

children and youth, to provide homeless 

children and youth with wrap-around 

services to address the challenges of 

COVID–19, and to enable homeless 

children and youth to attend school and 

fully participate in school activities. 

This is a one-time grant program 

administered as part of the American 

Rescue Plan. The U.S. Department of 

Education (the Department) is seeking to 

understand how funds under this onetime grant program are being used. 

Specifically, the Department is 

seeking to learn about the distribution of 

ARP–HCY funds by SEAs, the 

characteristics of LEAs receiving funds, 

and the characteristics of LEAs who 

chose not to participate in the 

distribution of funds in each state. 

Additionally, the Department would 

like to gather information on how SEAs 

are using the funds that were set aside 

at the State level under this program. 

Information obtained in this survey will 

be used to inform technical assistance 

and support provided by the 

Department and the National Center for 

Homeless Education (NCHE), resources 

developed by NCHE, and further 

studies.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PCAST is 

an advisory group of the nation’s 

leading scientists and engineers, 

appointed by the President to augment 

the science and technology advice 

available to him from the White House, 

cabinet departments, and other Federal 

agencies. PCAST is consulted on and 

provides analyses and recommendations 

concerning a wide range of issues where 

understanding of science, technology, 

and innovation may bear on the policy 

choices before the President. The 

Designated Federal Officer is Dr. Sarah 

Domnitz. Information about PCAST can

approximately one hour with the 

President on July 28, 2022 or July 29, 

2022, which must take place in the 

White House for scheduling 

convenience and to maintain Secret 

Service protection. This meeting will be 

closed to the public because a portion

12:00 p.m. Eastern Time on July 21, 

2022, so that the comments can be made

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: FERC–914, Cogeneration and 

Small Power Production—Tariff Filings. 

OMB Control No.: 1902–0231. 

Type of Request: Three-year extension 

of the FERC–914 information collection 

requirements with no changes to the 

current reporting requirements. 

Abstract: The Commission published 

a 60-day notice in the Federal Register 

on May 2, 2022.1 The Commission 

received no comments. Section 205(c) of 

the Federal Power Act (FPA) (16 U.S.C. 

824d(c)) and 18 CFR 292 require that 

every public utility have all its 

jurisdictional rates and tariffs on file 

with the Commission and make them 

available for public inspection, within 

such time and in such form as the 

Commission designates. Section 205(d) 

of the FPA (16 U.S.C. 824d(d)) requires 

that every public utility must provide 

notice to the Commission and the public 

of any changes to its jurisdictional rates 

and tariffs, file such changes with the 

Commission, and make them available 

for public inspection as directed by the 

Commission. In addition, FPA section 

206 (16 U.S.C. 82e) requires the 

Commission, upon complaint or its own 

motion, to modify existing rates or 

services that are found to be unjust, 

unreasonable, unduly discriminatory, or 

preferential. FPA section 207 (16 U.S.C. 

824f) requires the Commission upon 

complaint by a state commission and a 

finding of insufficient interstate service, 

to order the rendering of adequate 

interstate service by public utilities, the 

rates for which would be filed in 

accordance with FPA sections 205 and 

206. 

In Order Nos. 671 and 671–A,2 the 

Commission revised its regulations that 

govern qualifying small power 

production and cogeneration facilities. 

The Commission eliminated certain 

exemptions from rate regulation that 

were previously available to qualifying 

facilities (QFs). New QFs may need to 

make tariff filings if they do not meet 

the exemption requirements. 

FERC implemented the Congressional 

mandate of the Energy Policy Act of 

2005 (EPAct 2005) to establish criteria 

for new qualifying cogeneration 

facilities by: (1) amending the 

exemptions available to qualifying 

facilities from the FPA and from Public 

Utility Holding Company Act (PUHCA) 

[resulting in the burden imposed by 

FERC–914, the subject of this notice]; (2) 

ensuring that these facilities are using 

their thermal output in a productive and 

beneficial manner; that the electrical, 

thermal, chemical and mechanical 

output of new qualifying cogeneration 

facilities is used fundamentally for 

commercial, residential or industrial 

purposes; and there is continuing 

progress in the development of efficient 

electric energy generating technology; 

(3) amending the FERC Form No. 556 3

to reflect the criteria for new 

cogeneration QFs; and (4) eliminating 

ownership limitations for cogeneration 

and small power production QFs. The 

Commission satisfied the statutory 

mandate and its continuing obligation to 

review its policies encouraging 

cogeneration and small power 

production, energy conservation, 

efficient use of facilities and resources 

by electric utilities, and equitable rates 

for energy customers. 

Type of Respondents: New QFs and 

small power producers that do not meet 

Commission exemption criteria.
