SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Education (ED), in 
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 
3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general public and Federal agencies with 
an opportunity to comment on proposed, revised, and continuing 
collections of information. This helps the Department assess the impact 
of its information collection requirements and minimize the public's 
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand the Department's 
information collection requirements and provide the requested data in 
the desired format. ED is soliciting comments on the proposed 
information collection request (ICR) that is described below. 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 the respondents, 
including through the use of information technology. Please note that 
written comments received in response to this notice will be considered 
public records.
    Title of Collection: Grants to Charter Management Organizations for 
Replication and Expansion of High-Quality Charter Schools Program.
    OMB Control Number: 1855--New.
    Type of Review: A new information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Private Sector.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 50.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 2,000.
    Abstract: The major purposes of the CSP are to expand opportunities 
for all students, particularly traditionally underserved students, to 
attend charter schools and meet challenging State academic standards; 
provide financial assistance for the planning, program design, and 
initial implementation of public charter schools; increase the number 
of high-quality charter schools available to students across the United 
States; evaluate the impact of charter schools on student achievement, 
families, and communities; share best practices between charter schools 
and other public schools; encourage States to provide facilities 
support to charter schools; and support efforts to strengthen the 
charter school authorizing process. Through the CSP Grants to Charter 
Management Organizations for Replication and Expansion of High-Quality 
Charter Schools (Charter Management Organization (or CMO)) competition 
(CFDA number 84.282M), the Department awards grants to charter 
management organizations (CMOs) to enable them to replicate or expand 
one or more high-quality charter schools. Grant funds may be used to 
expand the enrollment of one or more existing high-quality charter 
schools, or to replicate one or more new charter schools that are based 
on an existing, high-quality charter school model.
    The application package requests programmatic and budgetary 
information needed to evaluate new applications and make funding 
decisions based on the authorizing statute, program regulations, and 
EDGAR. Respondents are non-profit Charter Management Organizations 
interested in applying for funding under the CMO program.
