replacement), and as-needed repairs by
the system operator would follow to
ensure proper operation of the solar PV
system.
The alternatives considered and
analyzed in the PEA are the No Action
alternative and three action alternatives,
which are to implement the proposed
action on greenfield sites (Alternative
1), on previously developed sites
(Alternative 2), and on or over
structures or impervious surfaces, such
as buildings and carports (Alternative
3). Installations may choose any or all
of the action alternative approaches to
solar PV.
The goal of this programmatic
approach is to streamline the NEPA
process for the construction, operation,
and maintenance of solar PV renewable
energy projects by providing
installations with sufficient detail about
environmental impacts on resources to
enable them to tier off of the PEA, as
appropriate. Tiering from this PEA
would avoid or reduce the costs of
repetitive, similar analyses, and allow
the Army to focus resources on only
those site-specific environmental issues
that merit a deeper analysis.
Installations tiering from the PEA would
use the checklist contained in the PEA
to identify site-specific NEPA
requirements. Where further analysis
would be required to meet site-specific
NEPA requirements, the PEA may still
be used for tiering, allowing the
installation to focus on those resources
which require site-specific analysis.
Members of the public, federallyrecognized Native American Tribes,
Alaska Native Tribes, Native Hawaiian
Organizations, and federal, state, and
local agencies are invited to submit
written comments on the PEA and/or
draft FNSI.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Department of Education (ED), in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general
public and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed,
revised, and continuing collections of
information. This helps the Department
assess the impact of its information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. It also
helps the public understand the
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

Title of Collection: William D. Ford
Federal Direct Loan Program—150%
Limitation.
OMB Control Number: 1845–0116.
Type of Review: An extension of an
existing information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: State,
Local, and Tribal Governments;
Individuals or Households; Private
Sector.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 7,770,494.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 282,713.
Abstract: These data will allow the
Department to calculate the borrowers
maximum eligibility period, subsidized
usage period, and remaining eligibility
period as described in 685.200(f)(1)(ii)–
(f)(1)(iv), determine whether the
borrower is eligible to receive an
additional Direct Subsidized Loan, and
ensure that borrowers do not receive
Direct Subsidized Loans if they are no
longer eligible to receive a Direct
Subsidized Loan under 685.200(f)(2).
The Department will determine
whether the borrower is responsible for
accruing interest on their previously
received Direct Subsidized Loans. To
ensure that the Department has the
information to necessary to make that
determination, institutions will be
required to report additional
information to NSLDS. For example,
institutions will be required to report:
The CIP code and the credential level
for the program in which a borrower is
enrolled; the length of the program in
academic years, weeks, or months
(consistent with current institutional
reporting in the COD System); and a
more detailed enrollment status of the
borrower (e.g., full-time, three-quartertime, half-time, or less-than-half-time).
These data will allow the Department
to determine whether a borrower who is
not eligible for additional Direct
Subsidized Loans is responsible for
accruing interest on his or her
previously received Direct Subsidized
Loans.
The regulations implement a new
statutory requirement that significantly
limits a borrowers eligibility for Direct
Subsidized Loans and potentially
results in the borrower becoming
responsible for accruing interest on
existing Direct Subsidized Loans. Under
section 485(l) of the HEA, which
requires that borrowers be provided
with entrance and exit counseling on
the provisions governing federal student
aid, institutions will be required to
revise the entrance and exit counseling
provided to borrowers.

new provisions to borrowers.
