Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 6 / Monday, January 10, 2011 / Notices Summary of Potential Costs and Benefits Note: This notice does not solicit applications. In any year in which we choose to use these priorities, requirements, and selection criteria, we invite applications through a notice in the Federal Register.4 srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with NOTICES the maximum possible points assigned to each criterion. This proposed regulatory action affects only LEAs and nonprofit organizations that are applying for assistance under the i3 program. This regulatory action creates flexibility for the Department to (a) select from among the priorities and selection criteria that were established in the 2010 NFP specific priorities and criteria to use in the FY 2011 i3 grant competition and those in subsequent years, and (b) select other selection criteria under 34 CFR 75.209 and 75.210. We believe that any priority or criterion that would be used in a future grant competition would not impose a financial burden that LEAs and nonprofit organizations would not otherwise incur in the development and submission of a grant application under the i3 program, and under some circumstances (for example, if the Department elected to use fewer criteria or factors in a given competition) the proposed changes could reduce the financial burden of preparing an i3 grant application by a modest amount. Additionally, although the ‘‘Limits on Grant Awards’’ and ‘‘Cost Sharing or Matching’’ requirements are i3 program requirements, both requirements affect only the highest-rated applications from the peer review process that are also determined to be eligible for an i3 grant award. Therefore, we believe that the proposed modifications to the requirements would not impose a financial burden that LEAs and nonprofit organizations would not otherwise incur in the development and submission of a grant application under the i3 program. Executive Order 12866: Under Executive Order 12866, the Secretary must determine whether a regulatory action is ‘‘significant’’ and therefore subject to the requirements of the Executive order and subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget. Section 3(f) of Executive Order 12866 defines a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ as an action likely to result in a rule that may (1) have an annual effect on the economy of $100 million or more, or adversely affect a sector of the economy, productivity, competition, jobs, the environment, public health or safety, or State, local or Tribal governments or communities in a material way (also referred to as an ‘‘economically significant’’ rule); (2) create serious inconsistency or otherwise interfere with an action taken or planned by another agency; (3) materially alter the budgetary impacts of entitlement grants, user fees, or local programs or the rights and obligations of recipients thereof; or (4) raise novel legal or policy issues arising out of legal mandates, the President’s priorities, or the principles set forth in the Executive order. The Secretary has determined that this regulatory action is not significant under section 3(f) of the Executive order. This notice has been reviewed in accordance with Executive Order 12866. Under the terms of the order, we have assessed the potential costs and benefits of this proposed regulatory action. The potential costs associated with this proposed regulatory action are those resulting from statutory requirements and those we have determined as necessary for administering the Department’s discretionary grant programs effectively and efficiently. In assessing the potential costs and benefits—both quantitative and qualitative—of this proposed regulatory action, we have determined that the benefits of the proposed priorities and definitions justify the costs. We have determined, also, that this proposed regulatory action does not unduly interfere with State, local, and Tribal governments in the exercise of their governmental functions. 4 Availability of funds for the i3 program in FY 2011 and in subsequent years is contingent upon an appropriation of funds for the program by the Congress. VerDate Mar<15>2010 18:19 Jan 07, 2011 Jkt 223001 Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 This notice contains information collection requirements that are subject to review by the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501– 3520). The burden associated with CFDA Nos. 84.396A/B/C was approved by OMB under OMB Control Number 1855–0021, which expires on October 31, 2013. These proposed revisions to priorities, requirements, and selection criteria would allow the Department to improve the design of the i3 program to better achieve its purposes and goals by (a) establishing the flexibility to select priorities and selection criteria and (b) modifying the ‘‘Limits on Grant Awards’’ and ‘‘Cost Sharing or Matching’’ requirements. However, the revisions do not change the number of applications an organization may submit or the burden that an applicant would otherwise incur in the development and PO 00000 Frm 00016 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 1415 submission of a grant application under the i3 program. Therefore, the Department expects that this proposed regulatory action will not affect the total burden of 150,000 hours. Intergovernmental Review: This program is subject to Executive Order 12372 and the regulations in 34 CFR part 79. One of the objectives of the Executive order is to foster an intergovernmental partnership and a strengthened federalism. The Executive order relies on processes developed by State and local governments for coordination and review of proposed Federal financial assistance.
