DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION

34 CFR Part 668

RIN 1840-AB80, 1840-AB85 and 1840-AC09


Student Assistance General Provisions

AGENCY: Department of Education.

ACTION: Final regulations.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Secretary amends the regulations governing the Student 
Assistance General Provisions to add the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) control number to certain sections of the regulations. 
Those sections contain information collection requirements approved by 
OMB. The Secretary takes this action to inform the public that these 
requirements have been approved, and therefore affected parties must 
comply with them.

EFFECTIVE DATE: These regulations are effective on August 15, 1995.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Cheryl Leibovitz, U.S. Department of 
Education, 600 Independence Avenue SW., (Room 3045, ROB-3), Washington, 
D.C. 20202. Telephone: (202) 708-7888. Individuals who use a 
telecommunications device for the deaf (TDD) may call the Federal 
Information Relay Service (FIRS) at 1-800-877-8339 between 8 a.m. and 8 
p.m. Eastern time, Monday through Friday.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Final regulations for the Student Assistance 
General Provisions; Federal Family Education Loan Programs were 
published in the Federal Register on November 29, 1994 at (59 FR 61142) 
and the Student Assistance General Provisions at (59 FR 61192). 
Compliance with information collection requirements in certain sections 
of these regulations was delayed until those requirements were approved 
by OMB under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1980. OMB approved the 
information collection requirements in the regulations on January 26, 
1995.

Waiver of Proposed Rulemaking

    It is the practice of the Secretary to offer interested parties the 
opportunity to comment on proposed regulations. However, the 
publication of OMB control numbers simply shows that OMB has approved 
the paperwork collection requirements that correspond to the above-
referenced regulations, and does not establish substantive policy. 
Therefore, the Secretary has determined under 5 U.S.C. 553(b)(B), that 
public comment on this technical amendment to the regulations is 
unnecessary and contrary to the public interest.
