submit an annual performance report
that provides the most current
performance and financial expenditure
information as directed by the Secretary
under 34 CFR 75.118. The Secretary
may also require more frequent
performance reports under 34 CFR
75.720(c). For specific requirements on
reporting, please go to www.ed.gov/
fund/grant/apply/appforms/
appforms.html.
5. Performance Measures: Under the
Government Performance and Results
Act of 1993 (GPRA), the Department
developed the following performance
measures to evaluate the overall
effectiveness of CAMP: (1) The
percentage of CAMP participants
completing the first academic year of
their postsecondary program, and (2) the
percentage of CAMP participants who,
after completing the first academic year
of college, continue their postsecondary
education.
Applicants must propose annual
targets for these measures in their
applications. The national target for
GPRA measure 1 for FY 2020 is that 86
percent of CAMP participants will
complete the first academic year of their
postsecondary program. The national
target for GPRA measure 2 for FY 2020
is that 92 percent of CAMP participants
continue their postsecondary education
after completing the first academic year
of college. The national targets for
subsequent years may be adjusted based
on additional baseline data. The peer
reviewers will score related selection
criteria on the basis of how well an
applicant addresses these GPRA
measures. Therefore, applicants will
want to consider how to demonstrate a
sound capacity to provide reliable data
on the GPRA measures, including the
project’s annual performance targets for
addressing the GPRA performance
measures, as is required by OMBapproved annual performance report
that is included in the application
package. All grantees will be required to
submit, as part of their annual
performance report, information with
respect to these GPRA performance
measures.
6. Continuation Awards: In making a
continuation award under 34 CFR
75.253, the Secretary considers, among
other things: Whether a grantee has
made substantial progress in achieving
the goals and objectives of the project;
whether the grantee has expended funds
in a manner that is consistent with its
approved application and budget; and,
if the Secretary has established
performance measurement
requirements, the performance targets in
the grantee’s approved application.

In making a continuation award, the
Secretary also considers whether the
grantee is operating in compliance with
the assurances in its approved
application, including those applicable
to Federal civil rights laws that prohibit
discrimination in programs or activities
receiving Federal financial assistance
from the Department (34 CFR 100.4,
104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).

might the Department minimize the
burden of this collection on the
respondents, including through the use

Title of Collection: National Teacher
and Principal Survey of 2020–2021
(NTPS 2020–21).
OMB Control Number: 1850–0598.
Type of Review: A revision of an
existing information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals or Households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 103,326.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 52,585.
Abstract: The National Teacher and
Principal Survey (NTPS), conducted
every two or three years by the National
Center for Education Statistics (NCES),
is a system of related questionnaires that
provides descriptive data on the context
of elementary and secondary education.
Redesigned from the Schools and
Staffing Survey (SASS) with a focus on
flexibility, timeliness, and integration
with other ED data, the NTPS system
allows for school, principal, and teacher
characteristics to be analyzed in relation
to one another. NTPS is an in-depth,
nationally representative survey of first
through twelfth grade public and private
school teachers, principals, and schools.
Kindergarten teachers in schools with at
least a first grade are also surveyed.
NTPS utilizes core content and a series
of rotating modules to allow timely
collection of important education trends
as well as trend analysis. Topics
covered include characteristics of
teachers, principals, schools, teacher
training opportunities, retention,
retirement, hiring, and shortages. The
NTPS 2019–20 preliminary activities
were approved in July 2019 (OMB#
1850–0598 v.26), with a change request
to update the sampling plan approved
in November 2019 (OMB# 1850–0598
v.27). This request is to conduct NTPS
2020–21, including all of its recruitment
and data collection activities.

Northern Natural Gas Company; Notice
of Intent To Prepare an Environmental
Assessment for the Planned South
Sioux City to Sioux Falls A-Line
Replacement Project, Request for
Comments on Environmental Issues,
and Notice of Public Scoping Sessions
The staff of the Federal Energy
Regulatory Commission (FERC or
Commission) will prepare an
environmental assessment (EA) that will
discuss the environmental impacts of
the South Sioux City to Sioux Falls ALine Replacement Project involving the
abandonment, construction, and
operation of pipeline facilities in Dakota
and Dixon Counties, Nebraska and
Lincoln and Union Counties, South
Dakota by Northern Natural Gas
Company (Northern). The Commission
will use this EA in its decision-making
process to determine whether the
project is in the public convenience and
necessity.
This notice announces the opening of
the scoping process the Commission
will use to gather input from the public
and interested agencies about issues
regarding the project. The National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA)
requires the Commission to take into
account the environmental impacts that
could result from its action whenever it
considers the issuance of a Certificate of
Public Convenience and Necessity.
NEPA also requires the Commission to
discover concerns the public may have
about proposals. This process is referred
to as ‘‘scoping.’’ The main goal of the
scoping process is to focus the analysis
in the EA on the important
environmental issues. By this notice, the
Commission requests public comments
on the scope of issues to address in the
EA. To ensure that your comments are
timely and properly recorded, please
submit your comments so that the
Commission receives them in
Washington, DC on or before 5:00 p.m.
