DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
34 CFR Parts 690
RIN 1840-AB73
Federal Pell Grant Program
AGENCY: Department of Education.
[[Page 30789]] ACTION: Final regulations.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Secretary amends the regulations governing the Federal
Pell Grant Program to add the Office of Management and Budget (OMB)
control number to certain sections of the regulations. Those sections
contain information collection requirements approved by OMB. The
Secretary takes this action to inform the public that these
requirements have been approved, and therefore affected parties must
comply with them.
EFFECTIVE DATE: These regulations are effective on July 1, 1995.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Greg Gerrans, Student Financial
Assistance Programs, Office of Postsecondary Education, U.S. Department
of Education, 600 Independence Avenue, S.W., (Room 3042, ROB-3),
Washington, D.C. 20202-5447. Telephone (202) 708-4607. Individuals who
use a telecommunications device for the deaf (TDD) may call the Federal
Information Relay Service (FIRS) at 1-800-877-8339 between 8 a.m. and 8
p.m. Eastern time, Monday through Friday.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Final regulations for the Federal Pell Grant
Program were published in the Federal Register on November 1, 1994 (59
FR 54718). Compliance with information collection requirements in
certain sections of these regulations was delayed until those
requirements were approved by OMB under the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1980. OMB approved the information collection requirements in the
regulations on December 5, 1994. The information collection
requirements in these regulations will therefore become effective with
all of the other provisions of the regulations on July 1, 1995.
Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking
It is the practice of the Secretary to offer interested parties the
opportunity to comment on proposed regulations. However, the
publication of OMB control numbers is purely technical and does not
establish substantive policy. Therefore, the Secretary has determined
under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), that public comment on the regulations is
unnecessary and contrary to the public interest.
