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: Annual State Application Under Part B of the 
Individuals with Disabilities Education Act.
    OMB Control Number: 1820-0030.
    Type of Review: A revision of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local, and Tribal Governments.

    Abstract: The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act, signed 
on December 3, 2004, became Public Law 108-446. In accordance with 20 
U.S.C. 1412(a) a State is eligible for assistance under Part B for a 
fiscal year if the State submits a plan that provides assurances to the 
Secretary that the State has in effect policies and procedures to 
ensure that the State meets each of the conditions found in 20 U.S.C. 
1412. States will provide assurances that it either has or does not 
have in effect policies and procedures to meet the eligibility 
requirements of Part B of the Act as found in Public Law 108-446. 
Information Collection 1820-0030 corresponds with 34 CFR 300.100-176; 
300.199; 300.640-645; and 300.705. These sections include the 
requirement that the Secretary and local educational agencies located 
in the State be notified of any State-imposed rule, regulation, or 
policy that is not required by this title and Federal regulations. In 
addition, Information Collection 1820-0300 is being revised to include 
the reporting requirement in 34 CFR 300.647(b)(7). This new reporting 
requirement is pursuant to significant
