burden. OMB 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 the
respondents, including through the use
of information technology.

Type of Review: Revision.
Title: Annual Mandatory Collection of
Elementary and Secondary Education
Data through EDFacts.
Frequency: Annually.
Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal
Gov’t, SEAs or LEAs.

Burden:
Responses: 7,059.
Burden Hours: 1,113,034.
Abstract: EDFacts is in the
implementation phase of a multiple year
effort to consolidate the collection of
education information about States,
Districts, and Schools in a way that
improves data quality and reduces
paperwork burden for all of the national
education partners. To minimize the
burden on the data providers, EDEN
seeks the transfer of the proposed data
as soon as it has been processed for
State, District, and School use. These
data will then be stored in EDFacts and
accessed by Federal education program
managers and analysts as needed to
make program management decisions.
This process will eliminate redundant
data collections while providing for the
timeliness of data submission and use.
Additional Information: The
Department of Education (ED) is
specifically requesting the data
providers in each the State Education
PO 00000
Frm 00018
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703

Agency (SEA) to review Attachment D
which ask specific questions about the
proposed data elements. These
questions will help ED to determine
which of these data can be provided for
the upcoming school year and which
data would be available in later years
and which data, if any, is never
expected to be available from the SEA.
If information for a data group is not
available, please provide information
beyond the fact that it is not available.
Are there specific impediments to
providing this data that you can
describe? Is the definition for the data
group unclear or ambiguous? Do the
requested permitted values align with
the way your state collects the data?
This is very important information
because the collection of these data is
mandatory. ED also seeks to know if the
SEA data definitions are consistent and
compatible with the EDEN definitions
and accurately reflect the way data is
stored and used for education by the
States, Districts, and Schools. The
answers to these questions by the data
providers will influence the timing and
content of the final EDEN proposal for
the collection of this elementary and
secondary data.

information collection request may be
