This proposed information collection request (ICR) also proposes a few other technical edits to improve clarity. Current approval for this data collection expires February 29, 2024, but is it requested to use the new instructions at the start of FY 2024 for FY 2023. The Randolph-Sheppard Act (Act), at 20 U.S.C. 107a(6)(a), directs the Secretary of Education, through the Commissioner of RSA, to conduct periodic evaluations of the programs authorized under the Act. In addition, section 107b(4) requires State government entities designated as the SLA to ‘‘make such reports in such form and containing such information as the Secretary may from time to time require. . . .’’ Sections 107a(a)(2) and (4) of the Act also require the Secretary of Education to ‘‘. . . make annual surveys of concession vending opportunities for blind vendors on Federal and other property . . .’’ and to ‘‘. . . make available to the public . . . information obtained as a result of such surveys.’’ The information to be collected is a necessary component of the data gathering and evaluation process and forms the basis for the Randolph-Sheppard Act section of the RSA annual report to Congress, which is required by section 13 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973 (Rehabilitation Act) (29 U.S.C. 710). The RSA–15 form includes information on the activities under this program and is used in monitoring the States’ implementation of the program. In addition, the fiscal data collected by the RSA–15 highlight the fiscal nexus between the RSVFP and VR program in each State, particularly with respect to the use of Federal VR. This information collection (IC) will be implemented upon the expiration of the current IC on February 29, 2024; however it is requested to begin the use of this form and the new instructions for the FY 2023 data collection (October 1, 2023). The RSA–15: Report of VerDate Sep<11>2014 21:36 Aug 16, 2023 Jkt 259001 Randolph-Sheppard Vending Facility Program 1820–0009 is available both in hard copy and electronically; however, data will be submitted and collected through the RSAMIS on the rsa.ed.gov website by each of the 51 SLAs.
