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 Director of the

Information Resources Group publishes

this 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 at

the address specified above. Copies of

the requests are available from Patrick J.

Sherrill at the address specified above.

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.

Office of Management

Type of Review: Revision.

Title: Amendment to the Education

Department General Administrative

Regulations (EDGAR), 34 CFR 75.200–

75.211.

Frequency: Annually.

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit; Not for Profit institutions; State,

Local or Tribal Government, SEAs or

LEAs.

Annual Reporting and Recordkeeping

Hour Burden:

Responses: 1.

Burden Hours: 1.

Abstract: The proposed rulemaking

would amend EDGAR to establish a

menu of selection criteria. For each

competition, the Secretary would select

one or more criteria that best enable the

Department to identify the highest

quality applications consistent with the

program purpose, statutory

requirements, and any priorities

established. The amendments would

also allow the Secretary the flexibility to

weight the criteria according to the

needs of each individual program. This

menu of selection criteria will provide

the Department the flexibility to choose

a set of criteria tailored to a given

competition and obviate the need to

create specific selection criteria through

individual program regulations.
