    ACTION: Proposed collection; comment request.
    
    -----------------------------------------------------------------------
    
    SUMMARY: The Director, Information Resources Group, invites comments on 
    the proposed information collection requests as required by the 
    Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
    
    DATES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments on or before 
    August 19, 1996.
    
    ADDRESSES: Written comments and requests for copies of the proposed 
    information collection requests should be addressed to Patrick J. 
    Sherrill, Department of Education, 600 Independence Avenue, S.W., Room 
    5624, Regional Office Building 3, Washington, DC 20202-4651.
    
    FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Patrick J. Sherrill (202) 708-8196. 
    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: 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.
