    Title of Collection: Impact Aid Discretionary Construction Grant 
Program (1894-0001).
    OMB Control Number: 1810-0657.
    Type of Review: An extension of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local, and Tribal Governments.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 40.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 240.
    Abstract: The Impact Aid Program, authorized by Title VII of the 
Elementary and Secondary Education Act, as amended, provides financial 
assistance to Local Educational Agencies (LEA) whose enrollment or 
revenues are adversely affected by Federal activities. The ESEA, as 
amended, authorized a Discretionary Construction Grant program under 
Section 7007(b). The Impact Aid Discretionary Construction Program 
provides grants to eligible Impact Aid school districts for emergency 
repairs and modernization of school facilitates. The eligible Impact 
Aid school districts have a limited ability to raise revenues for 
capital improvements because they have large areas of Federal land 
within their boundaries. As a result, these districts find it difficult 
to respond when their school facilities are in need of emergency 
repairs or modernization; the Impact Aid Discretionary Construction 
Program assists these LEAs.

the Chief Privacy Officer, Office of Management.
