SUMMARY: The Director, Information Resources Group, invites comments on

Information and Regulatory Affairs, Attention: Dan Chenok, Desk
Officer, Department of Education, Office of Management and Budget, 725

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.

submission of this request to OMB. This notice contains the following
information: (1) Type of review requested, e.g., expedited; (2) Title;
