Title: Student Assistance General
Provisions—Subpart K—Cash
Management.
Abstract: These regulations comprise
the existing provisions of the Student
Assistance General Provisions guidance
regarding cash management.
Information collection under these
regulations relates to cash management
requirements and practices for
institutions participating in the Title IV,
Higher Education Act (HEA), programs.
This request is for approval of reporting
and recordkeeping requirements
contained in the attached final
regulations related to the administrative
requirements of the Regulations
Governing the Student Assistance
General Provisions as revised by the
TEACH Grant final regulations. The
information collection requirements in
these regulations are necessary to
determine eligibility to receive program
benefits and to prevent fraud and abuse
of program funds.
Additional Information: The U.S.
Department of Education (the
Department) requests that OMB grant an
emergency clearance of 1845–0038. This
emergency clearance is necessary due to
new burden created from regulatory
changes resulting from 34 CFR 668.165,
the new regulations for the Teacher
Education Assistance for College and
Higher Education (TEACH) Grant
Program. 34 CFR 668.165 requires
institutions to notify recipients of when
and the amount of their Teach Grant
disbursements, in addition to their right
to cancel or reduce their grant amount,
as well as procedures the institution has
adopted for the recipient to contact their
school about cancellation or grant
reduction. The associated information
collection provisions relating to these
requirements are accounted for in 1845–
0038. These regulatory changes resulted
from public comments in response to
the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking
published in the Federal Register on
March 21, 2008 (73 FR 15336). The
Department requests emergency
clearance by June 12, 2008 so it can
implement procedures to make Teach
Grants available by the statutory
effective date of July 1, 2008.
Frequency: On Occasion.

AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: The IC Clearance Official,

Services, Office of Management, invites
comments on the proposed information
collection requests as required by the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
DATES: An emergency review has been
requested in accordance with the Act
(44 U.S.C. Chapter 3507 (j)), since
public harm is reasonably likely to
result if normal clearance procedures
are followed. Approval by the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) has
been requested by June 12, 2008.
ADDRESSES: Written comments
regarding the emergency review should
be addressed to the Office of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) requires
that the Director of OMB provide
interested Federal agencies and the
public an early opportunity to comment
on information collection requests. The
Office of Management and Budget
(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 IC Clearance Official,
Regulatory Information Management
Services, Office of Management,
publishes this notice containing
proposed information collection
requests at the beginning of the
Departmental review of the information
collection. 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. ED invites
public comment.
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 respondents, including
through the use of information
technology.

is for approval of reporting and
recordkeeping requirements contained
in the attached proposed regulations
related to the TEACH Grant
administrative requirements for the
Title IV, HEA programs. The
information collection requirements in
these proposed regulations are
necessary to determine eligibility to
receive program benefits and to prevent
fraud and abuse of program funds.
Additional Information: The U.S.
Department of Education (the
Department) requests that OMB grant an
emergency clearance of the proposed
regulations governing the Teacher
Education Assistance for College and
Higher Education (TEACH) Grant
Program. Sections 420L through 420O of
the Higher Education Act of 1965, as
amended, (the HEA) provides for
TEACH Grants to eligible students at
eligible and participating institutions of
higher education. The TEACH Grant
Program was established under the HEA
by the College Cost Reduction and
Access Act of 2007 (the CCRAA). In
accordance with section 420O of the
CCRAA, the effective date for the
TEACH Grant Program is July 1, 2008.
The Department is requesting an
emergency clearance of these TEACH
Grant regulations because the regular
clearance process would not enable us
to make an OMB-approved TEACH
Grant available to participants by the
statutory effective date for the TEACH
Grant Program. The Department
requests emergency clearance of the
proposed regulations by June 12, 2008,
in order to obtain an OMB Control
Number to be used in the TEACH Grant
Final Regulations which are being
prepared for submission.

Notice of proposed subsequent
arrangement.
AGENCY:
ACTION:
SUMMARY: This notice is being issued
under the authority of Section 131 of the
Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended
(42 U.S.C. 2160). The Department is
providing notice of a proposed
‘‘subsequent arrangement’’ under the
Agreement for Cooperation in the
Peaceful Uses of Nuclear Energy
between the United States and
Argentina.
This subsequent arrangement requests
to downblend material subject to an
earlier subsequent arrangement—
published in the Federal Register July 9,
2004 (69 FR 41460)—to a different level
than previously approved. Under the
2004 subsequent arrangement, Comision
Nacional de Energia Atomica (CNEA)
was approved to downblend material
from 89.79% enriched into lowenriched uranium (LEU). Under a
contract with DOE’s Global Threat
Reduction Initiative program, CNEA has
submitted the attached request to
downblend 304 g of that material to
58% weight of isotope U235 rather than
to LEU as originally approved. The
material will be fabricated into test
plates in Argentina and sent to Idaho
National Laboratory for testing and
irradiation. The material will remain in
the United States after irradiation.
In accordance with Section 131 of the
Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as amended,
we have determined that this
subsequent arrangement will not be
inimical to the common defense and
security.
This subsequent arrangement will
take effect no sooner than fifteen days
after the date of publication of this
notice.
