Title of Collection: Annual State Application Under Part B of the

OMB Control Number: 1820-0030.

ICR.
Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local, and Tribal Governments.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 60.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 2,340.
Abstract: The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, signed
on December 3, 2004, became Public Law 108-446. In accordance with 20
U.S.C. 1412(a) a State is eligible for assistance under Part B for a
fiscal year if the State submits a plan that provides assurances to the
Secretary that the State has in effect policies and procedures to
ensure that the State meets each of the conditions found in 20 U.S.C.
1412. Information Collection 1820-0030 is being extended so that a
State can provide assurances that it either has or does not have in
effect policies and procedures to meet the eligibility requirements of
Part B of the Act as found in Public Law 108-446. Information
Collection 1820-0030 corresponds with 34 CFR 300.100-176; 300.199;
300.640-645; 300.646-647 and 300.705. These sections include the
requirement that the Secretary and local educational agencies located
in the State be notified of any State-imposed rule, regulation, or
policy that is not required by this title and Federal regulations.
In addition, Information Collection 1820-0300 is being updated to
make a nonsubstantive change to the application template to address a
statement that is referenced in two places in the application document.
The statement appears under Section II.C. (Certifications), item number
two and is also referenced under Section II.D (Statement). This
statement pertains to a provision, under the Education Department
General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR) at 34 CFR 76.104, relating
to State eligibility, authority and approval to submit and carry out
the provisions of its State application, and consistency of that
application with State law are in place within the State. The purpose
of the nonsubstantive change is to remove the statement from under
Section II.C. (Certifications) in order to eliminate the duplication of
the statement within the application template.

Strategy Division, Office of Chief Data Officer, Office of Planning,
