SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Abstract
The IDEIA, 20 U.S.C. 1411(h)(4)(c)
and 1443(b)(3) require Tribes and Tribal
organizations to submit certain
information to the Secretary of the
Interior. Under the IDEIA, the U.S.
Department of Education provides
funding to the Secretary of the Interior
for the coordination of assistance for
special education and related services
for Indian children from birth through
age 5 with disabilities on reservations
served by Bureau-funded schools. The
Secretary of the Interior, through the
BIE, then allocates this funding to
Tribes and Tribal organizations based
on the number of such children served.
In order to allow the Secretary of the
Interior to determine what amounts to
allocate to whom, the IDEIA requires
Tribes and Tribal organizations to
submit information to Interior. The BIE
collects this information on two forms,
one for Indian children aged 3 through
5 covered by IDEIA Part B, and one for
Indian children from birth to age 2
covered by IDEIA Part C.
In IDEIA Part B—Assistance for
Education of All Children with
Disabilities, 20 U.S.C. 1411(h)(4)(D)
Tribes and Tribal organizations are
required to use the funds to assist in
child find, screening, and other

Indian children aged 3 through 5, parent
training, and the provision of direct
services. IDEIA Part C—Infants and
Toddlers with Disabilities, 20 U.S.C.
1443(b)(4) likewise requires Tribes and
Tribal organizations to use the fund to
assist in child find, screening, and other
procedures for early identification of
Indian children under 3 years of age and
for parent training and early
intervention services.
II. Request for Comments
The BIE requests your comments on
this collection concerning: (a) The
necessity of this information collection
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) The accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden (hours
and cost) of the collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(c) Ways we could enhance the quality,
utility, and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (d) Ways we could
minimize the burden of the collection of
the information on the respondents.
Please note that an agency may not
conduct or sponsor, and an individual
need not respond to, a collection of
information unless it displays a valid
OMB Control Number.
It is our policy to make all comments
available to the public for review at the
