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
that written comments received in
response to this notice will be
considered public records.
Title of Collection: Impact Evaluation
of Academic Language Intervention.
OMB Control Number: 1850—NEW.
Type of Review: A new information
collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: State,
Local, and Tribal Governments;
Individuals or Households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 546.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 492.
Abstract: The purpose of the Impact
Evaluation of Academic Language
Intervention is to assess the impact of a
promising academic language
intervention on teachers’ instructional
practice and students’ language and
reading skills, with a particular focus on
students who are English Learners (ELs)
and disadvantaged non-EL students.
Although prior studies of academic
language instruction provide some
initial evidence of the efficacy of
instructional practices, confirmation of
large-scale effectiveness is needed. This
evaluation will contribute to the
knowledge base of the instructional
practices that improve language and
literacy outcomes for these high need
populations.
This submission covers data
collection for the baseline period prior
to implementing the selected academic
language intervention, during the
implementation year (the 2017–18
VerDate Sep<11>2014
16:37 Jun 06, 2017
Jkt 241001
school year), and a follow-up year
(spring 2019). The evaluation will
examine the implementation and impact
of an academic language program, using
a random assignment design in which
participating schools in each district are
randomly assigned to a treatment group
whose 4th and 5th grade teachers
receive training and materials to
implement the program or to a control
group whose teachers do not. This
submission covers the following data
collection activities: Teacher surveys,
teacher and student rosters, and school
district records data.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

[Case No. IES–001]
Notice of Petition for Waiver From
Acuity Brands From the Department of
Energy Illuminated Exit Signs Test
Procedure
Office of Energy Efficiency and
Renewable Energy, Department of
Energy.
ACTION: Notice of petition for waiver and
request for public comments.
AGENCY:
This notice announces receipt
of a petition from Acuity Brands
(Acuity) seeking a waiver from specific
portions of the U.S. Department of
Energy (DOE) test procedure for
determining the energy consumption of
illuminated exit signs. Acuity seeks to
use an alternate test procedure to
address issues involved in testing
certain basic models of illuminated exit
signs identified in its petition. Acuity
contends that its combination
illuminated exit signs cannot be
accurately tested using the currently
applicable DOE test procedure.
Although Acuity has proposed an
alternate test procedure, DOE is
proposing a different alternate test
procedure to test and rate specified
Acuity basic models in this notice. DOE
solicits comments, data, and
information concerning Acuity’s

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In an
updated petition received on March 22,
2016 (initially submitted on April 17,
2013) and in an email received on May
1, 2017, Acuity requested that DOE
grant a test procedure waiver for
specified models of illuminated exit
signs that cannot be tested under the
existing DOE test procedure. The basic
models of illuminated exit signs at issue
are models typically known as
combination illuminated exit signs.
These basic models include components
such as egress lighting or alarms that

typically require a larger battery to
power the auxiliary features, which
causes the test procedure to provide
inaccurate comparative data.
I. Background and Authority
Title III, Part B 1 of the Energy Policy
and Conservation Act of 1975 (‘‘EPCA’’),
Public Law 94–163 (42 U.S.C. 6291–
6309, as codified) established the
Energy Conservation Program for
Consumer Products Other Than
Automobiles, a program that includes
illuminated exit signs.2 Part B includes
definitions, test procedures, labeling
provisions, energy conservation
standards, and the authority to require
information and reports from
manufacturers. Further, Part B
authorizes the Secretary of Energy to
prescribe test procedures that are
reasonably designed to produce results
that measure energy efficiency, energy
use, or estimated operating costs during
a representative average-use cycle, and
that are not unduly burdensome to
conduct. (42 U.S.C. 6293(b)(3)) The test
procedure for illuminated exit signs is
contained in 10 CFR part 431, subpart
L.3
The regulations set forth in 10 CFR
431.401 contain provisions that allow a
person to seek a waiver from the test
procedure requirements for a particular
basic model of a type of covered product
when the petitioner’s basic model for
which the petition for waiver was
submitted contains one or more design
characteristics that: (1) Prevent testing
according to the prescribed test
procedure, or (2) cause the prescribed
test procedures to evaluate the basic
model in a manner so unrepresentative
of its true energy consumption
characteristics as to provide materially
inaccurate comparative data. 10 CFR
431.401(a)(1) A petitioner must include
in its petition any alternate test
procedures known to the petitioner to
evaluate the basic model in a manner
representative of its energy
consumption. 10 CFR 431.401(b)(1)(iii)
1 For editorial reasons Part B of title III was
redesignated as Part A upon incorporation into the
U.S. Code.
2 All references to EPCA refer to the statute as
amended through the Energy Efficiency
Improvement Act of 2015, Public Law 114–11
(April 30, 2015).
3 Although illuminated exit signs are covered
products pursuant to EPCA, as a matter of
administrative convenience and to minimize
confusion among interested parties, DOE adopted
illuminated exit sign provisions into subpart L of
10 CFR part 431 (the portion of DOE’s regulations
dealing with commercial and industrial equipment)
because typically businesses, rather than
individuals, purchase them. 70 FR 60407, 60409
(Oct. 18, 2005). DOE refers to illuminated exit signs
as either ‘‘products’’ or ‘‘equipment.’’
