Approved as
amended by ED's memoranda to OMB of 11/13/91, 12/2/91, and 12/3/91.
The burden hour increase has been registered as a program change
because this form expired in January 1991. ED should not allow
forms that remain part of program operations to expire, and lengthy
expiration periods will result in program increases. Also, the next
submission of this form for PRA clearance shall provide grantees an
option of reporting data as either raw numbers (which would allow
ED t calculate the percentages) or percentages with raw numbers for
the tot lines (which would allow ED to calculate the raw numbers
for individua data elements that comprise these totals) unless ED
can demonstrate substantial need to collect both numbers and
percentages.
