DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION


Notice of Proposed Collection Requests; Comment Request

AGENCY: Department of Education

ACTION: Correction Notice

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: On August 19, 2014, the U.S. Department of Education published 
a 60-day comment period notice in the Federal Register (Page 49069, 
Column 1) seeking public comment for an information collection 
entitled, ``Generic Application Package for Departmental Generic Grant 
Programs.'' This notice was published in error. The comment period for 
this information collection request ends on September 2, 2014.
    On July 3, 2014, the U.S. Department of Education published a 60-
day comment period notice in the Federal Register (Page 38017, Column 
1) seeking public comment for an information collection entitled, 
``Generic Application Package for Discretionary Grant Program.'' The 
abstract omitted a section of the CFR where selected criteria are also 
covered under generic applications. The abstract is corrected as 
follows.
    The Department is requesting an extension of the approval for the 
Generic Application Package that numerous ED discretionary grant 
programs use to provide to applicants the forms and information needed 
to apply for new grants under those grant program competitions. The 
Department will use this Generic Application package for discretionary 
grant programs that: (1) Use the standard ED or Federal-wide grant 
applications forms that have been cleared separately through OMB under 
the terms of this generic clearance as approved by OMB and (2) use 
selection criteria from the Education Department General Administrative 
Regulations (EDGAR); selection criteria that reflect statutory or 
regulatory provisions that have been developed under 34 CFR 75.209, or 
a combination of EDGAR, statutory or regulatory criteria or other 
provisions, as authorized under 34 CFR 75.200 and 75.209. The use of 
the standard ED grant application forms and the use of EDGAR and/or 
criteria developed under Sec. Sec.  75.200 and 75.209 promotes the 
standardization and streamlining of ED discretionary grant application 
packages.
    The Acting Director, Information Collection Clearance Division, 
Privacy, Information and Records Management Services, Office of 
Management, hereby issues a correction notice as required by the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.
