Title of Collection: Regional
Educational Laboratory Southwest
Leading Early Childhood Achievement
and Development (LEAD) Efficacy
Study.
OMB Control Number: 1850–NEW.
Type of Review: A new ICR.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals and Households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 408.
Total Estimated Number of Annual

Abstract: The Oklahoma State
Department of Education (OSDE) would
like to address disparities in
instructional quality by increasing the
use of research-based early learning
practices in PreK and kindergarten
classrooms. OSDE, Anadarko Public
Schools, Shawnee Public Schools, and
the Regional Educational Laboratory
(REL) Southwest formed the Leading
Early Childhood Achievement and
Development (LEAD) partnership in
Oklahoma to respond to this need. Since
2023, REL Southwest has collaborated
with these partners to codevelop,
iteratively refine, and test a professional
learning intervention (referred to as the
LEAD intervention). The LEAD
intervention is designed to complement
and fully support the use of Oklahoma’s
Academic Standards and districtselected curricula. The intervention
aims to build school leaders’ and PreK
and kindergarten teachers’ knowledge of
research-based early learning
practices—play-based instructional
practices and high-quality interactions.
In addition, the LEAD intervention aims
to develop school leaders’ instructional
leadership skills and provide resources
to support PreK and kindergarten
teachers’ implementation of researchbased practices. In time, these practices
are expected to lead to better academic
outcomes for students.
REL Southwest is developing the
LEAD intervention through an approved
Training, Coaching, and Technical
Support (TCTS) project. To increase the
likelihood that the LEAD intervention
will achieve its intended outcomes, the
partnership is also studying the
usability, feasibility, and acceptability
of the core components of the LEAD

intervention, through two iterations of
piloting the LEAD intervention across
two cohorts: cohort 1 during the 2023/
24 school year and cohort 2 during the
2024/25 school year. To date, the LEAD
intervention has completed the cohort 1
pilot with two districts and their four
schools and is conducting the cohort 2
pilot with two districts and their two
schools.
REL Southwest is requesting
clearance to conduct an efficacy study
with a third cohort of schools. The
study will be conducted in 44 schools
across Oklahoma and will focus on
school leaders and preK and
kindergarten teachers and students. Data
collected for this study will be used to
measure the implementation of the
LEAD intervention in participating
schools and the LEAD intervention’s
efficacy in improving school leaders’
and teachers’ knowledge of researchbased early learning practices; teachers’
use of play-based learning practices and
high-quality teacher-student
interactions; and students’ attendance,
early academic skills, and skills to
support learning. This efficacy study
will provide evidence on LEAD
implementation and its impact on
educators and preK and kindergarten
students in Oklahoma.

Golden Triangle Storage, Inc; Request
for Extension of Time
Take notice that on October 31, 2024,
Golden Triangle Storage, Inc. (GTS)
requested that the Commission grant an
extension of time, until December 31,
2027, to complete the development of
Storage Caverns 1 and 2 to their
certificated storage capacities for the
GTS Project in Jefferson and Orange
Counties, Texas as authorized in the
Order Authorizing Certificates issued on
December 31, 2007.1 On January 11,
2022, the Commission granted GTS an
extension of time until December 31,
2024, to complete construction of the
GTS Project,2 the currently effective
deadline for constructing and placing
the GTS Project into service at
certificated levels.
GTS explains that as of June 16, 2012,
GTS placed all certificated facilities into
service except the completion of
Caverns 1 and 2 to their maximum
certificated capacities. GTS further
explains that, prior to this request, it
requested and received three extensions
of time, primarily to accommodate the
lengthy cavern rewatering process
required to enlarge the caverns to their
full capacity and to deal with salt creep
which slowly reduces cavern capacity.
GTS states that it will not be able to
complete the expansion of Caverns 1
and 2 by December 31, 2024, and
therefore requests an extension of time
until December 31, 2027.
This notice establishes a 15-calendar
day intervention and comment period
deadline. Any person wishing to
comment on GTS’s request for an
extension of time may do so. No reply
