[[Page 86639]]
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. The
Department is soliciting comments on the proposed information
collection request (ICR) that is described below. The Department 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: Revised Second Chance Pell Experiment and
Prison Education Program (PEP) Data Collection.
OMB Control Number: 1845-NEW.
Type of Review: A new ICR.
Respondents/Affected Public: Private sector; State, local, and
Tribal governments.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 675.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 6,750.
Abstract: This is a request for a new information collection to
collect programmatic and student information from participating
institutions. This collection will cover the required statutory
reporting for both the revised Second Chance Pell experiment and Prison
Education Programs (PEPs) for confined or incarcerated individuals.
Since schools participating in the Second Chance Pell experiment have
three years to transition their programs under the experiment to comply
with the PEP requirements, the data collected for the experiment and
the PEP provisions is almost identical. The only difference is the
specific information collected from institutions participating in the
Second Chance Pell to provide a status of their progress in converting
their current programs under the experiment to be in compliance with
the PEP provisions.

PRA Coordinator, Strategic Collections and Clearance, Governance and
Strategy Division, Office of Chief Data Officer, Office of Planning,
