    Title of Collection: Application for New Grants Under the Indian

    OMB Control Number: 1810-0580.
    Type of Review: An extension of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local, and Tribal Governments.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 50.

    Abstract: The Office of Indian Education (OIE) of the Department of 
Education (ED) requests a revision of this previously approved 
information collection for the Indian Education Discretionary Grant 
Application authorized under Title VI, Part A, of the Elementary and 
Secondary Education Act, as amended. The Professional Development (PD) 
(CFDA 84.299B) program is a competitive discretionary grant program. 
The grant applications submitted for this program are evaluated on the 
basis of how well an applicant addresses the selection criteria, and 
are used to determine applicant eligibility and amount of award for 
projects selected for funding. The Department will use the information 
collected through the application package to enable external reviewers 
to evaluate applications submitted for the PD grant competition. 
Eligible applicants submit the information to describe the project for 
which funding is requested. The information the applicant provides 
addresses the program selection criteria, in 34 CFR 263.6 and as 
required by statute under the ESEA amended section 6122. The 
application is evaluated through a peer review process and an 
application's score is used to determine its ranking and selection for 
funding. The information collected reflects the specific components of 
the selection criteria and program services that are to be provided.

Tomakie Washington,
Acting Director, Information Collection Clearance Division, Office of 
the Chief Privacy Officer, Office of Management.
