of its information collection requirements and minimize the public's 
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 
addressing the following issues: (1) Is this collection necessary to 
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 Client Assistance Program (CAP) Report.
    OMB Control Number: 1820-0528.
    Type of Review: An extension of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Private Sector, Federal Government.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 112.

    Abstract: Form RSA 227 is used to meet specific data collection 
requirements contained in Section 112 of the Rehabilitation Act of 
1973, as amended, and its implementing Federal Regulations at 34 CFR 
Part 370. Data from the form have been used to evaluate individual 
programs. These data also have been used to indicate trends in the 
provision of services from year-to-year. In addition, Form RSA-227 is 
used to analyze and evaluate the effectiveness of individual Client 
Assistance Program (CAP) grantees. These agencies provide services to 
individuals seeking or receiving services from programs and projects 
authorized by the Rehabilitation Act of 1973, as amended. Form RSA-227 
has enabled RSA to furnish the President and Congress with data on the 
provision of advocacy services and has helped to establish a sound 
basis for future funding requests.
