DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION
34 CFR Part 600
Institutional Eligibility Under the Higher Education Act of 1965,
as Amended
AGENCY: Department of Education.
ACTION: Final regulations, correction, compliance with information
collection requirements.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: The Secretary amends the regulations governing Institutional
Eligibility Under the Higher Education Act of 1965, as Amended 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,
and therefore affected parties must comply with them. The Secretary
also corrects an error in the preamble to these regulations published
in the Federal Register on April 29, 1994.
EFFECTIVE DATE: September 19, 1994.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Ms. Cheryl Leibovitz, U.S. Department
of Education, 400 Maryland Avenue, SW., Room 4318, ROB-3, Washington,
DC 20202. Telephone (202) 708-7888. 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 April 29, 1994, final regulations were
published in the Federal Register governing Institutional Eligibility
Under the Higher Education Act of 1965, as Amended (59 FR 22324).
Compliance with information collection requirements in 34 CFR 600.5,
600.7, 600.10, 600.20, 600.30, and 600.31 was delayed until those
requirements were approved by OMB under the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1980. On July 25, 1994 OMB approved those information collection
requirements under that Act; therefore affected parties must now comply
with those requirements.
Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking
In accordance with section 431(b)(2)(A) of the General Education
Provisions Act (20 U.S.C. 1232(b)(2)(A)) and 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).

The Secretary amends Part 600 of Title 34 of the Code of Federal
Regulations as follows:
PART 600--INSTITUTIONAL ELIGIBILITY UNDER THE HIGHER EDUCATION ACT
OF 1965, AS AMENDED
1. The authority citation for Part 600 continues to read as
follows:
Authority: 20 U.S.C. 1088, 1091, 1094, 1099b, 1099c, and 1141,
unless otherwise noted.
2. Sections 600.5, 600.7, 600.10, 600.20, 600.30, and 600.31 are
amended by adding an OMB control number at the end of these sections to
read as follows: ``(Approved by the Office of Management and Budget
under control number 1840-0098)''
3. The following correction is made in FR Doc. 94-10139, published
in the Federal Register of April 29, 1994, (59 FR 22324):
On page 22324, column 1, the first sentence after the heading
``EFFECTIVE DATE'' is corrected to read as follows: These regulations
take effect on July 1, 1994. However, affected parties do not have to
comply with information collection requirements contained in
Secs. 600.5, 600.7, 600.10, 600.20, 600.30 and 600.31 until the
information collection requirements contained in these sections have
been submitted by the Department of Education and approved by the
Office of Management and Budget under the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1980.
