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

Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
6116 of the Elementary and Secondary
Education Act of 1965 (ESEA), as
amended by the Every Student Succeeds
Act (ESSA) is to assist grantees to
provide Indian students with the
opportunity to meet the same
challenging state standards as all other
students and meet the unique
educational and culturally related
academic needs of American Indian and
Alaska Native students. The Indian
Education Formula Grant (CFDA
84.060A), is neither competitive nor
discretionary and requires the annual
submission of the application from
either a local education agency, tribe,
Indian organization, or Indian
community-based organization. The
amount of the award for each applicant
is determined by a formula based on the
reported number of American Indian/
Alaska Native students identified in the
application, the state per pupil
expenditure, and the total appropriation
available. The Office of Indian
Education (OIE) of The Department of
Education (ED) collects annual
performance data within the same
system that collects the annual
application. The application and the
annual performance report are both be
housed in the Education Data Exchange
Network (EDEN) Submission System.
The 524B Annual Performance Report
(APR) was designed for discretionary
grants, however the title VI program is
a formula grant program. The EASIE
APR goes beyond the generic 524B APR
and facilitates the collection of more
specific and comprehensive data due to
grantees entering project specific data
into an online database.

Public Water System Supervision
Program Revision for the State of
Arizona
Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA).
ACTION: Notice of tentative approval.
AGENCY:
Notice is hereby given that
the State of Arizona revised its
approved Public Water System
Supervision (PWSS) Program under the
federal Safe Drinking Water Act (SDWA)
by adopting the Lead and Copper Rule
(LCR), LCR Minor Revisions (LCR–MR)
and LCR Short-Term Revisions (LCR–
STR). The Environmental Protection
Agency (EPA) has determined that these
revisions are no less stringent than the
corresponding Federal regulations and
otherwise meet applicable SDWA
primacy requirements. Therefore, EPA
intends to approve the stated revisions
to the State’s PWSS Program.
DATES: A request for a public hearing
must be received on or before April 12,
2021.
ADDRESSES: All documents relating to
this determination are available for
inspection between the hours of 8:30
a.m. and 4:30 p.m., Monday through
Friday, at the following office: Arizona
Department of Environmental Quality,
Records Center, 1110 West Washington
Street, Phoenix, AZ 85007; or please

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background. The EPA approved the
State of Arizona’s initial application for
SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:04 Mar 11, 2021
Jkt 253001
PWSS Program primary enforcement
authority (‘‘primacy’’), which became
effective on August 25, 1978 (43 FR
38083). States with primacy must adopt
and submit for EPA approval all new
and revised national primary drinking
water regulations. Since initial
approval, EPA has approved various
revisions to Arizona’s PWSS Program.
For the revisions covered by this action,
the EPA promulgated the Lead and
Copper Rule (LCR) on June 7, 1991 (56
FR 26460). EPA modified this rule with
technical amendments that were
published in the Federal Register on
July 15, 1991 (56 FR 32113), June 29,
1992 (57 FR 28786), and June 30, 1994
(59 FR 33860). The EPA proposed the
LCR–MR on April 12, 1996 (60 FR
16348) and finalized the LCR–MR on
January 12, 2000 (65 FR 1949). The EPA
proposed the LCR–STR on July 18, 2006
(71 FR 40828) and published the final
LCR–STR on October 10, 2007 (72 FR
57782). EPA has determined that the
LCR, LCR–MR and LCR–STR
requirements were incorporated by
reference into the Arizona
Administrative Code (AAC) Title 18,
Chapter 4, Article 1 and AAC Title 9,
Chapter 14, Article 1, in a manner that
Arizona’s regulations are comparable to
and no less stringent than federal
requirements for these programs.
Therefore, EPA intends to approve these
revisions as part of the State’s PWSS
Program.
Public Process. Any interested party
may request a public hearing on this
determination. A request for a public
hearing must be received or postmarked
by April 12, 2021, and addressed to the
Regional Administrator at the EPA
Region 9 via the following email
address: R9dw-program@epa.gov. The
Regional Administrator may deny
frivolous or insubstantial requests for a
hearing. If a substantial request for a
public hearing is made by April 12,
2021, EPA Region 9 will hold a public
hearing. Any request for a public
hearing shall include the following
information: 1. The name, address, and
telephone number of the individual,
organization, or other entity requesting
a hearing; 2. A brief statement of the
requesting person’s interest in the
Regional Administrator’s determination
and a brief statement of the information
that the requesting person intends to
submit at such hearing; and 3. The
signature of the individual making the
request, or, if the request is made on
behalf of an organization or other entity,
the signature of a responsible official of
the organization or other entity.

timely and appropriate request for a
hearing and the Regional Administrator
