Approved as
amended by ED's memoranda to OMB of 11/5/91, 11/22/91, and
11/27/91. In addition, ED shall meet the following conditions: --
ED shall incorporate the burden estimate per SEA into the revised
burden estimate on this form, along with the total aggregate burden
estimate currently provided. -- Collection of this form shall be on
a voluntary basis for FY 1992. The underlying statute sets FY 1993
as the first year in which ED and States are to implement a new
system to collect these data. Given the absence of a statutory
requirement for FY 1992 and concerns about data quality in the
current system, voluntary collection will allow States maintain
their personnel planning data base while meeting statutory
guidelines. Moreover, ED has indicated that an interim strategy is
needed to help prepare States for the new system in FY 1993. The
next submission of this form for clearance shall summarize such
activities occurring during FY 1992. -- This form, along with those
cleared under OMB #s 1820-0043, -0517, -0518, -0521, -0543, -0556,
-0557, -0573, and -0577, collect the data required under Section
618(b) of the IDEA (which incorporates programs funded under
Chapter 1 of the ESEA). The forms appear to be sent to States as a
set of tables in a single package. ED's next clearance submission
for these forms as a group should merge the tables into a single
clearance document, to reflect how the data are collected.
