OMB Control Number: 1870–0505.
Type of Review: An extension without
change of a currently approved ICR.
Respondents/Affected Public: Private
sector; State, local, and Tribal
governments.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 119,860.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 1,892,188.
Abstract: This is an extension of an
existing collection under OMB Control
No. 1870–0505. This collection was
originally submitted by the U.S.
Department of Education (the
Department) in December 2018 in
connection with a Notice of Proposed
Rulemaking for the Nondiscrimination
on the Basis of Sex in Education
Programs or Activities Receiving
Federal Financial Assistance to propose
amendments to the Department’s
implementing regulations for title IX of
the Education Amendments of 1972.
(ICR Reference No. 201811–1870–001).
The Department finalized its rulemaking
in May 2020 and the ICR was approved
by OMB on December 8, 2020 (ICR
Reference No. 202005–1870–001). The
ICR is scheduled to expire on December
31, 2023. The regulations that require
the collection of information are set
forth below.
Section 106.45(b)(2) Notice of
Allegations requires all recipients, upon
PO 00000
Frm 00017
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
84313
receipt of a formal complaint, to provide
written notice to the complainant and
the respondent, informing the parties of
the recipient’s grievance process and
providing sufficient details of the sexual
harassment allegations being
investigated. This written notice will
help ensure that the nature and scope of
the investigation, and the recipient’s
procedures, are clearly understood by
the parties at the commencement of an
investigation.
Section 106.45(b)(9) Informal
resolution requires that recipients who
wish to provide parties with the option
of informal resolution of formal
complaints, may offer this option to the
parties but may only proceed by: first,
providing the parties with written
notice disclosing the sexual harassment
allegations, the requirements of an
informal resolution process, any
consequences from participating in the
informal resolution process; and second,
obtaining the parties’ voluntary, written
consent to the informal resolution
process. This provision permits—but
does not require—recipients to allow for
voluntary participation in an informal
resolution as a method of resolving the
allegations raised in formal complaints
without completing the investigation
and adjudication. Additionally,
recipients may not offer or facilitate an
informal resolution process to resolve
allegations that an employee sexually
harassed a student.
Section 106.45(b)(10) requires
recipients to maintain certain
documentation regarding their title IX
activities. Recipients would be required
to maintain for a period of seven years
records of: sexual harassment
investigations, including any
determination regarding responsibility
and any audio or audiovisual recording
or transcript required under
§ 106.45(b)(6)(i), any disciplinary
sanctions imposed on the respondent,
and any remedies provided to the
complainant designed to restore or
preserve equal access to the recipient’s
education program or activity; any
appeal and the result therefrom; any
informal resolution; and all materials
used to train Title IX Coordinators,
investigators, decision-makers, and any
person who facilitates an informal
resolution process. Additionally, for
each response required under
§ 106.44(a), a recipient must create, and
maintain for a period of seven years,
records of any actions, including any
supportive measures, taken in response
to a report or formal complaint of sexual
harassment.

Type of Review: An extension without change of a currently approved
ICR.
Respondents/Affected Public: Private sector; State, local, and

Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 119,860.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 1,892,188.
Abstract: This is an extension of an existing collection under OMB
Control No. 1870-0505. This collection was originally submitted by the
U.S. Department of Education (the Department) in December 2018 in
connection with a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for the
Nondiscrimination on the Basis of Sex in Education Programs or
Activities Receiving Federal Financial Assistance to propose amendments
to the Department's implementing regulations for title IX of the
Education Amendments of 1972. (ICR Reference No. 201811-1870-001). The
Department finalized its rulemaking in May 2020 and the ICR was
approved by OMB on December 8, 2020 (ICR Reference No. 202005-1870-
001). The ICR is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2023. The
regulations that require the collection of information are set forth
below.
Section 106.45(b)(2) Notice of Allegations requires all recipients,
upon receipt of a formal complaint, to provide written notice to the
complainant and the respondent, informing the parties of the
recipient's grievance process and providing sufficient details of the
sexual harassment allegations being investigated. This written notice
will help ensure that the nature and scope of the investigation, and
the recipient's procedures, are clearly understood by the parties at
the commencement of an investigation.
Section 106.45(b)(9) Informal resolution requires that recipients
who wish to provide parties with the option of informal resolution of
formal complaints, may offer this option to the parties but may only
proceed by: first, providing the parties with written notice disclosing
the sexual harassment allegations, the requirements of an informal
resolution process, any consequences from participating in the informal
resolution process; and second, obtaining the parties' voluntary,
written consent to the informal resolution process. This provision
permits--but does not require--recipients to allow for voluntary
participation in an informal resolution as a method of resolving the
allegations raised in formal complaints without completing the
investigation and adjudication. Additionally, recipients may not offer
or facilitate an informal resolution process to resolve allegations
that an employee sexually harassed a student.
Section 106.45(b)(10) requires recipients to maintain certain
documentation regarding their title IX activities. Recipients would be
required to maintain for a period of seven years records of: sexual
harassment investigations, including any determination regarding
responsibility and any audio or audiovisual recording or transcript
required under Sec. 106.45(b)(6)(i), any disciplinary sanctions
imposed on the respondent, and any remedies provided to the complainant
designed to restore or preserve equal access to the recipient's
education program or activity; any appeal and the result therefrom; any
informal resolution; and all materials used to train Title IX
Coordinators, investigators, decision-makers, and any person who
facilitates an informal resolution process. Additionally, for each
response required under Sec. 106.44(a), a recipient must create, and
maintain for a period of seven years, records of any actions, including
any supportive measures, taken in response to a report or formal
complaint of sexual harassment.
