-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Director, Information Resources Group, invites comments on
proposed information collection requests as required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1980.
DATES: An expedited review has been requested in accordance with the

(OMB) has been requested by February 7, 1995.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should be addressed to the Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs, Attention: Dan Chenok, Desk
Officer, Department of Education, Office of Management and Budget, 725
17th Street NW., Room 3208, New Executive Office Building, Washington,

request should be addressed to Patrick J. Sherrill, Department of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 3517 of the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1980 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 3517) requires that the Director of OMB
provide interested Federal agencies and persons 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, Information Resources Group, publishes this notice
with the [[Page 5912]] attached proposed information collection request
prior to submission of this request to OMB. This notice contains the
following information: (1) Type of review requested, e.g., expedited;
(2) Title; (3) Abstract; (4) Additional Information; (5) Frequency of
collection; (6) Affected public; and (7) Reporting and/or Recordkeeping
burden. Because an expedited review is requested, a description of the
information to be collected is also included as an attachment to this
