The U.S. Department of Education is
requesting approval for the Application for Assistance under
Section 7002 of Title VII of the Elementary and Secondary Education
Act (ESEA). This application is for a grant program otherwise known
as Impact Aid Payments for Federal Property. Local Educational
Agencies (LEAs) that have lost taxable property due to Federal
activities request financial assistance by completing an annual
application. Regulations for Section 7002 of the Impact Aid Program
are found at 34 CFR 222, Subpart B. Applicants prepare and submit
these applications through an e-application on ED’s Impact Aid
Grant System Website. The e-application offers recurring LEA
applicants significant advantages in preparing the application
because it pre-populates much of the LEA’s identifying information
and Federal property data. The e-application automatically checks
for completion of all necessary items and includes arithmetic
checks for table subtotals and the application total. This software
reduces the number of errors in applications submitted to
ED.

This revision requests approval
for a decrease in burden due to an adjustment in the agency
estimate. The number of applicants fluctuates over the years. We
now estimate that 35 fewer applicants will be submitting
applications. Therefore we estimate 52 fewer burden hours.
