Administration of Grants and Agreements With Institutions of
Higher Education, Hospitals, and other Non-Profit Organizations; Direct
Grant Programs
AGENCY: Department of Education.
ACTION: Final regulations.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Secretary amends 34 CFR parts 74 and 75 to add the Office
of Management and Budget (OMB) control numbers 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.
EFFECTIVE DATE: These regulations are effective on February 3, 1995.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Greg Vick, U. S. Department of
Education, 600 Independence Avenue, S.W., Room 3636, Regional Office
Building 3, Washington, D.C. 20202. Telephone (202) 708-8199.
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: On June 10, 1994, final regulations for
Direct Grant Programs (part 75) were published in the Federal Register
at 59 FR 30258, and on July 6, 1994, final regulations for the
Administration of Grants and Agreements with Institutions of Higher
Education, Hospitals, and other Non-Profit Organizations (part 74) were
published in the Federal Register at 59 FR 34722. Compliance with
information collection requirements in 34 CFR 74.12, 74.21, 74.25,
74.34, 74.44, 74.45, 74.46, 74.47, 74.51, 74.52, 74.53, 74.71, 74.72,
75.118 and 75.590 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 for part 75 on
June 3, 1994 and for part 74 on July 12, 1994.
Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking
In accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. 553),
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 proposed rulemaking is unnecessary and
contrary to the public interest and that a delayed effective date is
not required under 5 U.S.C. 553(d)(3).
