Approved as amended by ED's 7/17 memorandum to OMB. One-year approval is granted, which will allow sufficient time for ED to hold grant competitions under the Perkins Act in FY 1992, before the final regulation becomes effective. Should these final rules become effecti prior to July 1992, this approval will expire and ED shall use the program-specific selection criteria for grant competitions. Until suc time, ED should use program-specific criteria to the maximum extent possible, rather than general criteria outlined in EDGAR; OMB strongly discourages the use of EDGAR criteria unless a genuine emergency exist Last, ED's request to require 6 copies of of each application from grantees is approved on a test basis only. Upon resubmission of this form, ED shall report on the results of this test, including additiona respondent burden and cost and savings to the Department
