This package
collects information from both SEAs and LEAs. In the near future,
ED plans to begin collecting SEA data via the EDEN/ EDFacts system.
When this transition occurs, ED agrees to submit a change worksheet
(OMB Form 83-C) to account for the reduction in burden. ED will
continue to use this OMB number to collect data from LEAs.
