3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general public and Federal agencies with
an opportunity to comment on proposed, revised, and continuing
collections of information. This helps the Department assess the impact
of its information collection requirements and minimize the public's
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand the Department's
information collection requirements and provide the requested data in
the desired format. ED is soliciting comments on the proposed
information collection request (ICR) that is described below. The
Department of Education is especially interested in public comment
addressing the following issues: (1) Is this collection necessary to
the proper functions of the Department; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden
accurate; (4) how might the Department enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be collected; and (5) how might the
Department minimize the burden of this collection on the respondents,
including through the use of information technology. Please note that
written comments received in response to this notice will be considered
public records.
Title of Collection: Application for Grants under the Upward Bound
Program.
OMB Control Number: 1840-0550.
Type of Review: A reinstatement with change of a previously
approved collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: Private Sector; State, Local, and
Tribal Governments.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 1,540.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 51,080.
Abstract: The Department of Education is requesting a reinstatement
with change of the application for grants under the Upward Bound (UB)
Program. The Department is requesting a reinstatement with change
because the previous UB application expired in October 2019 and the
application will be needed for a Fiscal Year (FY) 2022 competition for
new awards. The Department expects an increase in respondents for the
FY 2022 competition for new awards. The FY 2022 application
incorporates one competitive preference priority. This collection is
being submitted under the Streamlined Clearance Process for
Discretionary Grant Information Collections (1894-0001). Therefore, the
30-day public comment period notice will be the only public comment
notice published for this information collection request.
