3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general public and Federal agencies with 
an opportunity to comment on proposed, revised, and continuing

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

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: Teacher Education Assistance for College and 
Higher Education Grant Eligibility Regulations.
    OMB Control Number: 1845-0084.
    Type of Review: An extension of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local, and Tribal Governments; 
Individuals or Households; Private Sector.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 232,324.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 36,673.
    Abstract: The Teacher Education Assistance for College and Higher 
Education (TEACH) Grant program is a non-need-based grant program that 
provides up to $4,000 per year to students who are enrolled in an 
eligible program and who agree to teach in a high-need field, at a low-
income elementary or secondary school for at least four years within 
eight years of

completing the program for which the Teach Grant was awarded. The TEACH 
Grant program regulations are required to ensure accountability of the 
program participants, both institutions and student recipients, for 
proper program administration, to determine eligibility to receive 
program benefits and to prevent fraud and abuse of program funds. The 
regulations include both record-keeping and reporting requirements. The 
record-keeping by the school allows for review of compliance with the 
regulation during on-site institutional reviews. The Department uses 
the required reporting to allow for close-out of institutions that are 
no longer participating or who lose eligibility to participate in the 
program.

    Dated: January 16, 2018.

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