SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Education (ED), in 
accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C. 
3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general public and Federal agencies with 
an opportunity to comment on proposed, revised, and continuing 
collections of information. This helps the Department assess the impact 
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: Student Assistance General Provisions--Non-
Title IV Revenue Requirements (90/10).
    OMB Control Number: 1845-0096.
    Type of Review: An extension of an existing information collection.
    Respondents/Affected Public: State, Local and Tribal Governments.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 3,360.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 5,040.
    Abstract: As enacted by the Higher Education Opportunity Act (Pub. 
L. 110-315), the regulations in 34 CFR 668.28 provide that a 
proprietary institution must derive at least 10% of its annual revenue 
from sources other than Title IV, HEA funds, sanctions for failing to 
meet this requirement, and otherwise implement the statute by (1) 
specifying a Net Present Value (NPV) formula used to establish the 
revenue for institutional loans, (2) providing an administratively 
easier alternative to the NPV calculation, and (3) describing more 
fully the non-Title IV eligible programs from which revenue may be 
counted for 90/10 purposes. The regulations require an institution to 
disclose in a footnote to its audited financial statements the amounts 
of Federal and non-Federal revenues, by category, that it used in 
calculating its 90/10 ratio (see section 487(d) of the HEA). This is a 
request to extend the information collection that identifies the 
reporting burden for this regulation.

    Dated: December 16, 2015.

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