Proposed Agency Information Collection, 27128 [2016-10537]

Download as PDF 27128 Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 87 / Thursday, May 5, 2016 / Notices Abstract: Section 3505(a)(2) of the PRA of 1995 provides the OMB Director authority to approve the streamlined clearance process proposed in this information collection request. This information collection request was originally approved by OMB in February of 2007. This information collection streamlines the clearance process for all discretionary grant information collections which do not fit the generic application process. The streamlined clearance process continues to reduce the clearance time for the U.S. Department of Education’s (ED’s) discretionary grant information collections by 60 days. This clearance would allow ED to provide better customer service to grant applicants and help meet ED’s goal for timely awards of discretionary grants. Dated: May 2, 2016.
