Department of Education August 25, 2010 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Secretary announces a waiver of the requirements in 34 CFR 75.250 and 75.261(c)(2) of the Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR), as they apply to projects funded under the Presidential Academies for American History and Civics Education, and 34 CFR 75.261(c)(2), as it applies to the project funded under the Congressional Academies for Students of American History and Civics Education program. These regulations, respectively, generally prohibit project periods exceeding five years and any project period extensions involving the obligation of additional Federal funds. A waiver will extend the project period for 24 months through fiscal year (FY) 2012 for the two current five-year grants funded under the Presidential Academies for American History and Civics Education program and the one current three-year grant funded under the Congressional Academies for Students of American History and Civics Education program. These grantees will continue to receive additional Federal funds (from the FY 2010 appropriation for the program).

The Acting Director, Information Collection Clearance Division, Regulatory Information Management Services, Office of Management invites comments on the submission for OMB review as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13).
