requests as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) requires that the Director of OMB
provide interested Federal agencies and the public an early opportunity
to comment on information collection requests. The Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) may amend or waive the requirement for public
consultation to the extent that public participation in the approval
process would defeat the purpose of the information collection, violate
State or Federal law, or substantially interfere with any agency's
ability to perform its statutory obligations. The Acting Director,
Information Collection Clearance Division, Regulatory Information
Management Services, Office of Management, publishes this notice
containing proposed information collection requests at the beginning of
the Departmental review of the information collection. Each proposed
information collection, grouped by office, contains the following: (1)
Type of review requested, e.g., new, revision, extension, existing or
reinstatement; (2) Title; (3) Summary of the collection; (4)
Description of the need for, and proposed use of, the information; (5)
Respondents and frequency of collection; and (6) Reporting and/or
Recordkeeping burden. ED invites public comment.
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
respondents, including through the use of information technology.

Type of Review: Reinstatement.
Title: Application for Grants under the Training Program for
Federal TRIO Programs.
Abstract: This application is needed to conduct a national
competition for new grant awards under the Training Program for Federal
TRIO Programs for Fiscal Year 2010. The Training Program for Federal
TRIO programs is mandated by statute to provide training for leadership
personnel and staff emoloyed in, participating in, or preparing for
employment in Federal TRIO Program projects designed to indentify
individuals from disadvantaged backgrounds, prepare them for a program
of postsecondary education, and provide special services for such
students pursuing programs of postsecondary education.
Additional Information: Without the granting of the emergency
clearance, the Department will miss a statutory deadline and harm to
the public would be caused due to lack of training needed to operate
Federal TRIO Program's grants. All staff employed by Federal TRIO
Programs' grants provide support and esnure high school completion,
college entrance and competion among first generation and low income
students and individuals with disabilities. Without funding these
activities would go unsupported by training.
Frequency: Annually.
Affected Public: Not-for-profit institutions; State, Local, or
Tribal Gov't, SEAs or LEAs.
Reporting and Recordkeeping Hour Burden:
Responses: 60
Burden Hours: 2,040
