This
notice of meeting is provided per the
Federal Advisory Committee Act, as
amended (5 U.S.C. App.). The executive
session of the meeting from 11:00 a.m.
to 12:00 p.m. on March 3, 2014, will

pending administrative/minor
disciplinary infractions and non-judicial
punishment proceedings involving
Midshipmen attending the U.S. Naval

such information cannot be adequately
segregated from other topics, which
precludes opening the executive session

Accordingly, the Secretary of the Navy
has determined in writing that the

public because the discussions during
the executive session from 11:00 a.m. to
12:00 p.m. will be concerned with
matters coming under sections 552b(c)
(5), (6), and (7) of Title 5, United States

DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE

Record of Decision for the Proposed
Modernization and Expansion of
Townsend Bombing Range, Georgia
Department of the Navy, DoD.
Notice of Record of Decision.

AGENCY:
ACTION:

Pursuant to Section
(102)(2)(c) of the National
Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) of
1969 (42 United States Code [U.S.C.]
4321–4370h); the Council on
Environmental Quality regulations for
implementing the procedural provisions
of NEPA (40 CFR parts 1500–1508);
Department of the Navy (DoN)
Procedures for Implementing NEPA (32
CFR part 775); and United States Marine
Corps (USMC) NEPA directives (Marine
Corps Order P5090.2A), the DoN
announces its decision to modernize
and expand Townsend Bombing Range
(TBR) in Long and McIntosh Counties,
Georgia. The DoN has decided to
implement Alternative 4, the Preferred
Alternative, to include acquisition of
Acquisition Areas 1B and 3.
To support this decision, DoN will
implement the following four actions:
(1) Acquire Acquisition Areas 1B and 3
(28,630 acres); (2) terminate a 3,007-acre
timber easement held by McIntosh
County on DoN-owned land within the
current TBR boundary; (3) modify
Restricted Area R–3007 airspace by
extending the current 100-foot floor to
ground level over the land to be
acquired (Acquisition Areas 1B and 3)
to match the existing restricted airspace
over the current range; and (4) construct
infrastructure to support precisionguided munitions (PGM) training,
including Target Areas 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and
8. This modernization and expansion of
TBR to accommodate inert PGM training
will significantly enhance USMC east
coast aviation unit training efficiency.
Presently, TBR can accommodate only
47% of the required F/A–18 Hornet
individual fixed-wing air crew air-toground training syllabus. The Proposed
Action will allow air crews to meet up
to 85% of their air-to-ground
proficiency requirements at TBR. All
practical means to avoid or minimize
environmental impacts resulting from
implementation of the Preferred
Alternative that were identified in the
EIS have been adopted.

accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA) (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)), provides the general
public and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed,
revised, and continuing collections of
information. This helps the Department
assess the impact of its information
collection requirements and minimize
the public’s reporting burden. It also
helps the public understand the
Department’s information collection
requirements and provide the requested
data in the desired format. ED is
soliciting comments on the proposed
information collection request (ICR) that
is described below. The Department of
Education is especially interested in
public comment addressing the
following issues: (1) Is this collection
necessary to the proper functions of the
Department; (2) will this information be
processed and used in a timely manner;
(3) is the estimate of burden accurate;
(4) how might the Department enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (5) how
might the Department minimize the
burden of this collection on the
respondents, including through the use
of information technology. Please note
that written comments received in
response to this notice will be

Title of Collection: Financial Status
and Program Performance Final Report
for State and Partnership for the Gaining
Early Awareness and Readiness for
Undergraduate Programs (GEAR UP).
OMB Control Number: 1840–0782.
Type of Review: A revision of an
existing information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: State,
Local, or Tribal Governments.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 125.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 5,625.
Abstract: The purpose of this
information collection is to determine
whether recipients of Gaining Early
Awareness and Readiness for
Undergraduate Programs (GEAR UP)
have made substantial progress towards
meeting the objectives of their
respective projects, as outlined in their
grant applications and/or subsequent
work plans. In addition, the final report
will enable the Department to evaluate
each grant project’s fiscal operations for
the entire grant performance period, and
compare total expenditures relative to
federal funds awarded, and actual costshare/matching relative to the total
amount in the approved grant
application. This report is a means for
grantees to share the overall experience
of their projects and document
achievements and concerns, and

describe effects of their projects on
participants being served; project
barriers and major accomplishments;
and evidence of sustainability. The
report will be GEAR UP’s primary
method to collect/analyze data on
students’ high school graduation and
immediate college enrollment rates.
Summary of Changes
If grantees choose to serve students
for 7 years, they must report on the 7th
year of activities which include
following GEAR UP students into the
first year of postsecondary education
and any students still in high school.
The 5 hour burden increase is due to the
additional time required to collect data
on GEAR UP students enrolled in
postsecondary education.
