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.

    Abstract: The U.S. Department of Education Grant Application Form

be entered by applicants at the time that grant applications are 
entered in Grants.gov.
    The Grant Application Form for Project Objectives and Performance 
Measures Information form and instructions are used by many ED 
discretionary grant programs to enable grantees to meet ED deadline 
dates for submission of performance reports to the Department.
