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: Federal Family Educational Loan Program--
Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA).
    OMB Control Number: 1845-0093.
    Type of Review: A revision of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local, and Tribal Governments; 
Private Sector.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 16,731.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 50,115.
    Abstract: The Department is requesting a revision of the current 
information collection. These Federal Family Education Loan (FFEL) 
Program regulations require a loan holder to match its database against 
the Defense Manpower Data Center (DMDC) and automatically apply the 
interest rate limitation, as appropriate, to borrowers under the 
Servicemembers Civil Relief Act (SCRA). There has been no change in the 
statute or in the regulations. The Department is revising downward the 
overall collection burden due to the decreasing number of FFEL loan 
holders and affected loans. Additionally, the Department is removing 
the minimal burden previously assessed individuals as a separate form 
was created subsequent to the initial information collection and the 
burden on individuals is more appropriate linked to that information 
collection.

    Dated: August 14, 2018.
Kate Mullan,
Acting Director, Information Collection Clearance Division, Office of 
the Chief Privacy Officer, Office of Management.
