3. Open Licensing Requirements:
Unless an exception applies, if you are
awarded a grant under this competition,
you will be required to openly license
to the public grant deliverables created
in whole, or in part, with Department
grant funds. When the deliverable
consists of modifications to pre-existing
works, the license extends only to those
modifications that can be separately
identified and only to the extent that
open licensing is permitted under the
terms of any licenses or other legal
restrictions on the use of pre-existing
works. Additionally, a grantee or
subgrantee that is awarded competitive
grant funds must have a plan to
disseminate these public grant
deliverables. This dissemination plan
can be developed and submitted after
your application has been reviewed and
selected for funding. For additional
information on the open licensing
requirements please refer to 2 CFR
3474.20(c).
4. Reporting: (a) If you apply for a
grant under this competition, you must
ensure that you have in place the
necessary processes and systems to
comply with the reporting requirements
in 2 CFR part 170 should you receive
funding under the competition. This
does not apply if you have an exception
under 2 CFR 170.110(b).
(b) At the end of your project period,
you must submit a final performance
report, including financial information,
as directed by the Secretary. If you
receive a multiyear award, you must
submit an annual performance report
(APR) that provides the most current
performance and financial expenditure
information as directed by the Secretary
under 34 CFR 75.118. The Secretary
may also require more frequent
performance reports under 34 CFR
75.720(c). For specific requirements on
reporting, please go to www.ed.gov/
fund/grant/apply/appforms/
appforms.html.
5. Performance Measures: The
Department has established the
following Government Performance and
Results Act of 1993 performance
measures for the IAL program: (1) The
percentage of four-year-old children
participating in the project who achieve
significant gains in oral language skills;
(2) the percentage of fourth graders
participating in the project who
demonstrated individual student growth
(i.e., an improvement in their
achievement) over the past year on State
reading or language arts assessments
under section 1111(b)(3) of the ESEA;
(3) the percentage of eighth graders
participating in the project who
demonstrated individual student growth
(i.e., an improvement in their

achievement) over the past year on State
reading or language arts assessments
under section 1111(b)(3) of the ESEA;
(4) the percentage of schools
participating in the project whose bookto-student ratios increase from the
previous year; and (5) the percentage of
participating children who receive at
least one free, grade- and languageappropriate book of their own.
All grantees will be expected to
submit an APR that includes data
addressing these performance measures
to the extent that they apply to the
grantee’s project.
6. Continuation Awards: In making a
continuation award under 34 CFR
75.253, the Secretary considers, among
other things: Whether a grantee has
made substantial progress in achieving
the goals and objectives of the project;
whether the grantee has expended funds
in a manner that is consistent with its
approved application and budget; and,
if the Secretary has established
performance measurement
requirements, the performance targets in
the grantee’s approved application.
In making a continuation award, the
Secretary also considers whether the
grantee is operating in compliance with
the assurances in its approved
application, including those applicable
to Federal civil rights laws that prohibit
discrimination in programs or activities
receiving Federal financial assistance
from the Department (34 CFR 100.4,
104.5, 106.4, 108.8, and 110.23).

Agency Information Collection
Extension
Office of Energy Efficiency and
Renewable Energy, Department of
Energy (DOE).
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:

The Department of Energy has
submitted an information collection
package to the OMB for extension under
the provisions of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995. The package
requests a three-year extension of its
‘‘Superior Energy Performance (SEP)
Certification and 50001 Ready
Recognition,’’ OMB Control Number
1910–5177. The proposed collection of
information relates to tracking partner
participation and calculating the energy
efficiency impact of DOE’s Superior
Energy Performance certification and
50001 Ready recognition programs.
DATES: Comments regarding this
collection must be received on or before
May 18, 2018. If you anticipate that you
will be submitting comments, but find
it difficult to do so within the period of
time allowed by this notice, please
advise the OMB Desk Officer of your
intention to make a submission as soon
as possible. The Desk Officer may be
telephoned at 202–395–4650 or
contacted by email at chad_s_
whiteman@omb.eop.gov.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should
be sent to the: Desk Officer for the

copies of the information collection
instrument and instructions should be
directed to Mr. Paul Scheihing at the
contact information listed above or
phone at 202–586–7234.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This
package contains: (1) OMB No. 1910–
5177; (2) Information Collection Request
Title: Department of Energy Superior
Energy Performance (SEP) Certification
and 50001 Ready Recognition; (3) Type
of Review: Renewal; (4) Purpose: This
Information Collection Request applies
to the Department of Energy (DOE)
voluntary ISO 50001 programs for
industrial facilities: Superior Energy
Performance® (SEP®) and 50001
ReadyTM recognition. SEP is an energy
efficiency certification and recognition
program for commercial, institutional,
and industrial facilities demonstrating
excellence in energy management as
well as continual improvement in
energy efficiency through third-party
verified energy performance. 50001
Ready recognition is a self-attestation of
the implementation of an ISO 50001
energy management system without the
need for external audits.
DOE’s 50001 Ready provides an onramp towards SEP certification. It is a
self-guided approach for facilities to
establish an energy management system
and self-attest to the structure of the ISO
50001 energy management system. SEP
certification builds on ISO 50001
provides a rigorous, internationallyrecognized business process for
companies to continually improve their
energy performance. The SEP thirdparty verification of energy performance
improvement is unique in the
marketplace, and assists to differentiate
certified companies from their
competitors. This request for
information consists of a voluntary data
collection process for SEP participation:
to manage and track certification cycles,
and provide recognition for verified
energy performance improvements.
50001 Ready collects a minimal amount
of self-attested information to manage
and track recognition cycles and to
recognize the achievements of its
participants.
The following types of information
are collected from primary participants:
(1) Background data, including contact
information and basic information and
basic facility information about its
energy use, energy consumption, and
energy performance indicators—
collected in the SEP Application Form;
(2) Information on energy performance
improvement in SEP-certified
facilities—collected in the SEP Energy
Performance Improvement Report.
50001 Ready collects only a subset of

VerDate Sep<11>2014

17:31 Apr 17, 2018

Jkt 244001

the same types of information, and
without the need for external audit.
Background data will primarily be used
to track basic information about SEP
and 50001 Ready participants and
identify opportunities to provide
participants with technical assistance.
Basic information about a facility’s
energy use, energy consumption, and
energy performance indicators will be
used to administer SEP and 50001
Ready. Information on energy
performance improvement will be used
by DOE to manage and track
participation cycles, and to track the
results of participation in SEP and
50001 Ready. Responses to the DOE’s
Information Collection Request will be
voluntary. (5) Annual Estimated
Number of Respondents: 233; (6)
Annual Estimated Number of
Responses: 233; (7) Annual Estimated
Number of Burden Hours: 333; (8)
Annual Estimated Reporting and
Recordkeeping Cost Burden: $18,667.
