[FR Doc Filed ; 8:45 am] BILLING CODE P DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION [CFDA Nos , , , , , , and ] Student Assistance General Provisions, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, Federal Family Education Loan, Federal Work-Study, Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Pell Grant, Leveraging Educational Assistance Partnership, and William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan Programs ACTION: Notice of deadline dates for receipt of applications, reports, and other records for the award year. SUMMARY: The Secretary announces deadline dates for the receipt of documents and other information from institutions and applicants for the Federal student aid programs authorized under Title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, for the award year. The Federal student aid programs include the Federal Perkins Loan, Federal Work-Study, Federal Supplemental Educational Opportunity Grant, Federal Family Education Loan, William D. Ford Federal Direct Loan, Federal Pell Grant, and Leveraging Educational Assistance Partnership programs. These programs, administered by the U.S. Department of Education (Department), provide financial assistance to students attending eligible postsecondary educational institutions to help them pay their educational costs. Deadline and Submission Dates: See Tables A and B at the end of this notice. Table A Deadline Dates for Application Processing and Receipt of Student Aid Reports (SARs) or Institutional Student Information Records (ISIRs) by Institutions Table A provides deadline dates for application processing, including corrections and submission of signatures, submission of verification documents and, for purposes of the Federal Pell Grant Program, receipt by institutions of SARs or ISIRs. We are using only three deadline dates in Table A for the award year. The single date for the submission of a Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is June 30, 2006, regardless of the method that the applicant uses to submit the FAFSA. September 15, 2006 is the deadline date for the submission and receipt of a signature page (if required), corrections, changes of addresses or schools, or requests for a duplicate SAR. September 22, 2006 is the deadline date for the submission and receipt of all other documents and materials that are specified in Table A. Table B Federal Pell Grant Program Submission Dates for Disbursement Information by Institutions Table B provides the earliest submission and deadline dates for institutions to submit Federal Pell Grant disbursement records to the Department s Common Origination and Disbursement (COD) System. In general, an institution must submit Federal Pell Grant disbursement records no later than 30 days after making a Federal Pell Grant disbursement or becoming aware of the need to adjust a student s previously reported Federal Pell Grant disbursement. In accordance with the regulations in 34 CFR , we consider that Federal Pell Grant funds are disbursed on the earlier of the date that the institution: (a) Credits those funds to a student s account in the institution s general ledger or any subledger of the general ledger, or (b) pays those funds to a student directly. We consider that Federal Pell Grant funds are disbursed even if an institution uses its own funds in advance of receiving program funds from the Department. An institution s failure to submit disbursement records within the required 30-day timeframe may result in an audit or program review finding. In addition, the Secretary may initiate an adverse action, such as a fine or other penalty for such failure. VerDate jul<14> :54 Jun 06, 2005 Jkt PO Frm Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\07JNN1.SGM 07JNN1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The information collected under the requirements of FERC Form 11 Natural Gas Monthly Quarterly Statement of Monthly Data (OMB No ) is used by the Commission to implement the statutory provisions of Sections 10(a) and 16 of the Natural Gas Act (NGA) 15 U.S.C w and the Natural Gas Policy Act of 1978 (NGPA) (15 U.S.C ). The NGA and NGPA authorize the Commission to prescribe rules and regulations requiring natural gas pipeline companies whose gas was transported or stored for a fee, which exceeded 50 million dekatherms in each of the three previous calendar years to submit FERC Form 11. The Commission implements these filing requirements in the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) under 18 CFR and Although the submission of the form is quarterly, the information is reported on a monthly basis. This permits the Commission to follow developing trends on a pipeline s system. Gas revenues and quantities of gas by rate schedule, transition cost from upstream pipelines, and reservation charges are reported. This information is used by the Commission to assess the reasonableness of the various revenues and cost of service items claimed in rate filings. It also provides the Commission with a view of the status pipeline activities, allows revenue comparisons between pipelines, and provides the financial status of the regulated pipelines. Action: The Commission is requesting a three-year extension of the current expiration date, with no changes to the existing collection of data. Burden Statement: Public reporting burden for this collection is estimated as: Number of respondents annually (1) Number of responses per respondent (2) Average burden hours per response (3) Total annual burden hours (1) (2) (3) Estimated cost burden to respondents is $39,457. (756 hours/2080 hours per year times $108,558 per year average per employee = $ 39,457.). The cost per respondent is $ The reporting burden includes the total time, effort, or financial resources expended to generate, maintain, retain, disclose, or provide the information including: (1) Reviewing instructions; (2) developing, acquiring, installing, and utilizing technology and systems for the purposes of collecting, validating, verifying, processing, maintaining, disclosing and providing information; (3) adjusting the existing ways to comply with any previously applicable instructions and requirements; (4) training personnel to respond to a collection of information; (5) searching data sources; (6) completing and reviewing the collection of information; and (7) transmitting, or otherwise disclosing the information. The estimate of cost for respondents is based upon salaries for professional and clerical support, as well as direct and indirect overhead costs. Direct costs include all costs directly attributable to providing this information, such as administrative costs and the cost for information technology. Indirect or overhead costs are costs incurred by an organization in support of its mission. These costs apply to activities which benefit the whole organization rather than any one particular function or activity. Comments are invited on: (1) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the Commission, including whether the information will have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of the agency s estimate of the burden of the proposed collection of information, including the validity of the methodology and assumptions used; (3) ways to enhance the quality, utility and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or VerDate jul<14> :54 Jun 06, 2005 Jkt PO Frm Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 E:\FR\FM\07JNN1.SGM 07JNN1
