Title of Collection: Student Assistance
General Provisions—Annual Fire Safety
Report.
OMB Control Number: 1845–0097.
Type of Review: An extension without
change of a currently approved
collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: Private

Abstract: The Department of
Education regulations at 34 CFR 668.49
require institutions to collect statistics
on fires occurring in on-campus student
housing facilities, including the number
and cause of each fire, the number of
injuries related to each fire that required
treatment at a medical facility, the
number of deaths related to each fire,
and the value of property damage
caused by each fire. Institutions must
also publish an annual fire safety report
containing the institution’s policies
regarding fire safety and the fire
statistics information. Further
institutions are required to maintain a
fire log that records the date, time,
nature, and general location of each fire
in on-campus student housing facilities.
Due to the effects of the COVID–9
pandemic, the Department lacks

sufficient data to allow for more

students and staff as well as for
reporting to Congress through the

Responses: 14,652.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 2,051,943.
Abstract: Under the current
unprecedented national health
emergency, the legislative and executive
branches of government have come
together to offer relief to those
individuals and industries affected by
the COVID–19 virus under the
Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic
Security (CARES) Act (Pub. L. 116–136)
authorized on March 27, 2020, and
expanded through the Coronavirus
Response and Relief Supplemental
Appropriations (CRRSA) Act, and the
American Rescue Plan (ARP) Act. The
ESSER Fund awards grants to SEAs and
for the purpose of providing local
educational agencies (LEAs), including
charter schools that are LEAs, as well as
Outlying Areas, with emergency relief
funds to address the impact that Novel
Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID–19)
has had, and continues to have, on
elementary and secondary schools
across the Nation. This information
collection requests emergency approval
for a revision to a previously approved
collection that includes annual
reporting requirements to comply with
the requirements of the ESSER program
and obtain information on how the
funds were used by State and Local
Education Agencies. Emergency
processing is necessary to provide states
with sufficient time to collect the
required data regarding the use of SEA
reserve funds. Retrospectively creating
this data after the activities have
concluded is much more burdensome
than prospectively collecting the data as
the activities occur. The form currently
collects information regarding the use of
SEA reserve funds at the LEA level.
However, questions addressing SEA use
of Reserve Funds were not included in
the forms submitted for 60- and 30-day
public comment.
The Department addressed all public
comments from the recently approved
information collection. The only change
to the approved collection is the
additional three questions to address the
use of SEA reserve funds. When
considering your comments, please refer
to Attachment A, which outlines the
additional 3 questions.
