Department’s information collection
requirements and provide the requested
data in the desired format. ED is
soliciting comments on the proposed
information collection request (ICR) that
is described below. 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. Please note
that written comments received in
response to this notice will be
considered public records.
Title of Collection: Trends in
International Mathematics and Science
Study (TIMSS 2019) Pilot Test
Recruitment.
OMB Control Number: 1850–0695.
Type of Review: A revision of an
existing information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals or Households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual

Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 324.
Abstract: The Trends in Mathematics
and Science Study (TIMSS) is an
international assessment of fourth and
eighth grade students’ achievement in
mathematics and science. Since its
inception in 1995, TIMSS has continued
to assess students every 4 years. The
United States will participate in TIMSS
2019 to continue to monitor the progress
of its students compared to that of other
nations and to provide data on factors
that may influence student
achievement. New in 2019, TIMSS will
be a technology-based assessment
conducted in an electronic format.
TIMSS is designed by the International
Association for the Evaluation of
Educational Achievement (IEA), and is
conducted in the U.S. by the National
Center for Education Statistics (NCES).
In preparation for the TIMSS 2019 main
study, in April 2017, U.S. will
participate in a pilot study to assist in
the development of eTIMSS, and then

U.S. will implement a field test, from
March through April 2018, to evaluate
new assessment items and background
questions. This submission describes
the plans for recruiting schools,
teachers, and students for the pilot
study beginning in October 2016.
Recruitment for the field test will begin
in May 2017, and recruitment for the
main study in May of 2018. In the
summer of 2016, NCES will submit a
separate request for the pilot data
collection and recruitment for the 2018
field test, including draft versions of the
pilot test questionnaires.

Application
Take notice that on June 3, 2016, ANR
Pipeline Company (ANR), 700 Louisiana
Street, Suite 700, Houston, TX 77002–
2700, filed an application pursuant to
section 7(b) of the Natural Gas Act
(NGA), and Part 157 of the
Commission’s regulations, requesting
authorization to implement the
permanent and temporary abandonment
of certain facilities, horsepower, and
design capacity at its Grand Chenier
Compressor Station (CS), located in
Cameron Parish, Louisiana, all as more
fully set forth in the application which
is on file with the Commission and open
to public inspection.
The filing may also be viewed on the

Specifically, ANR states that Grand
Chenier CS is currently certificated at
16,200 horsepower (HP) and has two
units, one rated at 8,100 HP and the
other ISO-rated at 9,700 HP. However,
ANR has determined that it can
continue to meet current transportation
requirements without compression at
the Grand Chenier CS. Thus, ANR
proposes to permanently abandon 6,500
HP of certificated horsepower at its
Grand Chenier CS. In order to effectuate
this, ANR proposes to abandon in place
its 8,100 HP compressor unit. In
addition, ANR proposes to temporarily
abandon the remaining certificated
9,700 HP and 192 million cubic feet per
day of design capacity for a period of up
