This information collection package describes the proposed criteria and procedures that govern the consolidated State application under which State educational agencies will apply to obtain funds for implementing ESEA programs. The option of submitting a consolidated application for obtaining federal formula program grant funds is provided for in the reauthorized ESEA (No Child Left Behind - NCLB) Sections 9302. This information collection package will guide the States in identifying the information and data required in the application.
This OMB83C change represents a transfer of 3,900 hours from the OMB control # 1820-0681 which was approved earlier this year.
