by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 

1995. 

DATES: Interested persons are invited to 

submit comments on or before June 25, 

2010. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments should 

be addressed to the Office of 

Information and Regulatory Affairs, 

Attention: Education Desk Officer, 

Office of Management and Budget, 725

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 

1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) requires 

that the Office of Management and 

Budget (OMB) provide interested 

Federal agencies and the public an early 

opportunity to comment on information 

collection requests. OMB may amend or 

waive the requirement for public 

consultation to the extent that public 

participation in the approval process 

would defeat the purpose of the 

information collection, violate State or 

Federal law, or substantially interfere 

with any agency’s ability to perform its 

statutory obligations. The Acting 

Director, Information Collection 

Clearance Division, Regulatory 

Information Management Services, 

Office of Management, publishes that 

notice containing proposed information 

collection requests prior to submission 

of these requests to OMB. Each 

proposed information collection, 

grouped by office, contains the 

following: (1) Type of review requested, 

e.g. new, revision, extension, existing or 

reinstatement; (2) Title; (3) Summary of 

the collection; (4) Description of the 

need for, and proposed use of, the 

information; (5) Respondents and 

frequency of collection; and (6) 

Reporting and/or Recordkeeping 

burden. OMB invites public comment.

Type of Review: Extension. 

Title: Streamlined Clearance Process 

for Discretionary Grant Information 

Collections.

Abstract: Section 3505(a)(2) of the 

Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 

provides the OMB Director authority to 

approve the steamlined clearance 

process proposed in this information 

collection request. This information 

collection request was originally 

approved by OMB in January of 1997. 

This information collection streamlines 

the clearance process for all 

discretionary grant information 

collections which do not fit the generic 

application process. The streamlined 

clearance process continues to reduce 

the clearance time for the U.S. 

Department of Education’s (ED’s) 

discretionary grant information 

collections by two months or 60 days. 

This is desirable for two major reasons: 

it would allow ED to provide better 

customer service to grant applicants and 

help meet ED’s goal for timely awards 

of discretionary grants. This is a request 

to extend the clearance process for 

discretionary grant information 

collections, and continue to be 

streamlined in the following manner: 

the clearance process begins when ED 

submits the collection to OMB and, 

simultaneously, publishes a 30-day 

public comment period notice in the 

Federal Register. OMB has 60 days, 

following the beginning of the public 

comment period, to reach a decision on 

the collection.

Act of 1965, as amended, for the 2009– 

2010 award year. The Federal student 

aid programs include the Federal 

Supplemental Educational Opportunity 

Grant, Federal Family Education Loan, 

Federal Work-Study, Federal Perkins 

Loan, Federal Pell Grant, Leveraging 

Educational Assistance Partnership, 

William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan, 

Academic Competitiveness Grant 

(ACG), National Science and 

Mathematics Access to Retain Talent 

Grant (National SMART Grant), and 

Teacher Education Assistance for 

College and Higher Education (TEACH) 

programs. 

These programs, administered by the 

U.S. Department of Education 

(Department), provide financial 

assistance to students attending eligible 

postsecondary educational institutions 

to help them pay their educational 

costs. 

Deadline and Submission Dates: See 

Tables A, B, and C at the end of this 

notice. 

Table A—Deadline Dates for 

Application Processing and Receipt of 

Student Aid Reports (SARs) or 

Institutional Student Information 

Records (ISIRs) by Institutions 

Table A provides information and 

deadline dates for application 

processing, including receipt of the Free 

Application for Federal Student Aid 

(FAFSA) and corrections to and 

signatures for the FAFSA, receipt of 

SARs and ISIRs, and receipt of 

verification documents. 

The deadline date for the receipt of a 

FAFSA by the Department’s Central 

Processing System is June 30, 2010, 

regardless of the method that the 

applicant uses to submit the FAFSA. 

The deadline date for the receipt of a 

signature page for the FAFSA (if 

required), corrections, changes of 

addresses or schools, or requests for a 

duplicate SAR is September 21, 2010. 

Verification documents must be 

received by the institution no later than 

the earlier of 120 days after the student’s 

last date of enrollment or September 28, 

2010. 

For all Federal student aid programs 

except Parent PLUS, a SAR or ISIR with 

an official expected family contribution 

must be received by the institution no 

later than the earlier of the student’s last 

date of enrollment or September 28, 

2010. For purposes of only the Federal 

Pell Grant, ACG, or National SMART 

Grant programs, a valid SAR or valid 

ISIR for a student not meeting the 

conditions for a late disbursement must 

be received no later than the earlier of 

the student’s last date of enrollment or 

September 28, 2010. A valid SAR or 

valid ISIR for a student meeting the 

conditions for a late disbursement under 

the Federal Pell Grant, ACG, or National 

SMART Grant programs must be 

received according to the deadline dates 

provided in Table A. 

In accordance with the regulations in 

34 CFR 668.164(g)(4)(i), an institution 

may not make a late disbursement later 

than 180 days after the date of the 

institution’s determination that the 

student withdrew or, for a student who 

did not withdraw, as provided in 34 

CFR 668.22, 180 days after the date the 

student otherwise became ineligible. 

Table A provides that an institution 

must receive a valid SAR or valid ISIR 

no later than 180 days after its 

determination of a student’s withdrawal 

or, for a student who did not withdraw, 

180 days after the date the student 

otherwise became ineligible, but not 

later than September 28, 2010. 

Table B—Federal Pell Grant, ACG, and 

National SMART Grant Programs 

Submission Dates for Disbursement 

Information by Institutions 

Table B provides the earliest 

submission and deadline dates for 

institutions to submit Federal Pell 

Grant, ACG, and National SMART Grant 

disbursement records to the 

Department’s Common Origination and 

Disbursement (COD) System and 

deadline dates for requests for 

administrative relief if the institution 

cannot meet the established deadline for 

specified reasons. 

In general, an institution must submit 

Federal Pell Grant, ACG, or National 

SMART Grant disbursement records no 

later than 30 days after making a Federal 

Pell Grant, ACG, or National SMART 

Grant disbursement or becoming aware 

of the need to adjust a student’s 

previously reported Federal Pell Grant, 

ACG, or National SMART Grant 

disbursement. In accordance with the 

regulations in 34 CFR 668.164, we 

consider that Federal Pell Grant, ACG, 

and National SMART Grant funds are 

disbursed on the date that the 

institution: (a) Credits those funds to a 

student’s account in the institution’s 

general ledger or any subledger of the 

general ledger, or (b) pays those funds 

to a student directly. We consider that 

Federal Pell Grant, ACG, and National 

SMART Grant funds are disbursed even 

if an institution uses its own funds in 

advance of receiving program funds 

from the Department. An institution’s 

failure to submit disbursement records 

within the required 30-day timeframe 

may result in an audit or program 

review finding. In addition, the 

Secretary may initiate an adverse action, 

such as a fine or other penalty for such 

failure. 

Table C—Federal Pell Grant 

Disbursement Information for a 

Payment Period That Occurs in Two 

Award Years (Crossover Payment 

Period) 

Table C provides the deadline dates 

regarding when the receipt of 

information requires the institution to 

assign a student’s 2010 crossover 

payment period that occurs in the 2009– 

2010 and 2010–2011 award years to the 

award year in which the student would 

receive a greater Federal Pell Grant 

payment for the payment period. 

In accordance with 34 CFR 690.64, as 

amended by the final regulations 

published on October 29, 2009, and 

effective on July 1, 2010 (74 FR 55902, 

55951), an institution must, regardless 

of a student’s enrollment status, assign 

a crossover payment period (a payment 

period that includes both June 30 and 

July 1) to the award year in which the 

student would receive the greater 

payment for the crossover payment 

period based on the information 

available at the time the student’s 

Federal Pell Grant is initially calculated. 

Table C sets a September 10, 2010 

deadline for the receipt of any 

information that would require an 

institution to reassign the 2010 

crossover payment period to the award 

year providing the greater payment. 

During the subsequent period of time 

but not later than February 1, 2011, an 

institution may establish a policy 

concerning reassignment of the 2010 

crossover payment period (74 FR 

55922). 

It is important to note that for the 

2010 transition crossover payment 

period only, an institution is not 

required to award a Federal Pell Grant 

to a student from the award year that 

will provide the greater payment if the 

institution established a written 

crossover payment period policy prior 

to July 1, 2010 and under that policy a 

student would be awarded a Federal 

Pell Grant from the 2009–2010 award 

year without applying the regulations as 

amended on October 29, 2009 (74 FR 

55904).

Commission 

[131 FERC ¶ 61,161; Docket No. RM93–11–

Revisions to Oil Pipeline Regulations 

Pursuant to the Energy Policy Act of 

1992; Notice of Annual Change in the 

Producer Price Index for Finished 

Goods 

May 19, 2010. 

The Commission’s regulations include 

a methodology for oil pipelines to 

change their rates through use of an 

index system that establishes ceiling 

levels for such rates. The Commission 

bases the index system, found at 18 CFR 

342.3, on the annual change in the 

Producer Price Index for Finished 

Goods (PPI–FG), plus one point three 

percent (PPI+1.3). The Commission 

determined in an ‘‘Order Establishing 

Index For Oil Price Change Ceiling 

Levels’’ issued March 21, 2006, that 

PPI+1.3 is the appropriate oil pricing 

index factor for pipelines to use.1

The regulations provide that the 

Commission will publish annually, an 

index figure reflecting the final change 

in the PPI–FG, after the Bureau of Labor 

Statistics publishes the final PPI–FG in 

May of each calendar year. The annual 

average PPI–FG index figures were 

177.1 for 2008 and 172.5 for 2009.2

Thus, the percent change (expressed as 

a decimal) in the annual average PPI–FG 

from 2008 to 2009, plus 1.3 percent, is 

negative 0.012974.3 Oil pipelines must 

multiply their July 1, 2009, through June 

30, 2010, index ceiling levels by 

positive 0.987026 4 to compute their 

index ceiling levels for July 1, 2010, 

through June 30, 2011, in accordance 

with 18 CFR 342.3(d). For guidance in 

calculating the ceiling levels for each 12 

month period beginning January 1, 

1995,5 see Explorer Pipeline Company,
