Education will
resubmit this collection for review in conjunction with the final
rule. Prior Terms of Clearance must still be completed. "OMB
approves this request for two years only. This request does not
disaggregate the burden for the majority of the FFEL program
requirements, but rather provides it in a lump sum amount
(10,128,562 hours). At this point, FSA has not maintained adequate
historical records to disaggregate the burdens into ICs as required
by ROCIS. FSA agrees to investigate the burden issue for this and
all other affected collections. The next submission of this ICR for
OMB approval will provide a detailed breakout of the burden and
will group ICs according to a mutual agreement between OMB and
FSA."
