Type of Review: Revision. 

Title: Section 704 Annual 

Performance Report (Parts I and II). 

Abstract: Section 706(d), 721(b)(3), 

and 725(c) of the Rehabilitation Act of 

1973, as amended (Act) and 

corresponding program regulations in 

34 CFR parts 364, 365, and 366 require 

centers for independent living, 

Statewide Independent Living Councils 

(SILCs) and Designated State Units 

(DSUs) supported under Parts B and C 

of Chapter 1 of Title VII of the Act to 

submit to the Secretary of Education 

(Secretary) annual performance 

information and identify training and 

technical assistance needs. 

Additional Information: If this 

collection does not receive special OMB 

consideration our public would be 

harmed by a delay in implementing the 

revised instrument. This would impair 

Education’s ability to discharge its 

oversight and technical responsibilities 

by limiting respondents’ ability to make 

the required changes in their 

information technology and data 

collection systems. 

Frequency: Annually. 

Affected Public: State, local, or tribal
