The Additional Supplemental Appropriations for Disaster Relief Act, 2019 (P.L. 116-20, hereafter referred to as the Disaster Supplemental) was signed into law by President Trump on June 6, 2019. The law provides $165 million for education-related disaster recovery activities for certain natural disasters in 2018 and 2019 for which a major disaster or emergency (covered disasters) has been declared by the President. The Department of Education plans to use the discretion afforded to the Secretary by the Disaster Supplemental to implement four programs: Immediate Aid to Restart School Operations program (Restart), Emergency Impact Aid for Displaced Students (EIA), Emergency Assistance to Institutions of Higher Education program (Emergency Assistance to IHEs), and Project School Emergency Response to Violence (Project SERV). Under this request, the Department is seeking emergency clearance for the 2019 Restart Program. Under this program, the Department will award Restart funding to SEAs, which, in turn, will provide assistance to LEAs to defray expenses related to the restart of operations in, the reopening of, and the re-enrollment of students in elementary and secondary schools that serve an area affected by a covered disaster. Due to the severe impact (e.g., physical, social, emotional) of the covered programs and the degree to which they have disrupted teaching and learning, we are requesting emergency clearance by August 30, 2019. In light of the late enactment of the Disaster Supplemental and the fact that the 2018-2019 school year is effectively over, it is critical that these data are collected quickly, to enable ED to make timely payments and provide necessary relief.
The Additional Supplemental Appropriations for Disaster Relief Act of 2019, signed into law by President Trump on June 06, 2019, included new funding to support disaster relief. The U.S. Department of Education (Department) will award up to $165 million to assist K-12 schools and school districts in meeting the educational needs of students affected by Hurricanes Florence and Michael, Typhoon Mangkhut, Super Typhoon Yutu, and wildfires, earthquakes, and volcanic eruptions occurring in calendar year 2018 and tornadoes and floods occurring in calendar year 2019 in those areas for which a major disaster or emergency is declared under section 401 or 501 of the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Act (42 U.S.C. 5170 and 5190).This disaster assistance will help schools and school districts return to their full capabilities as quickly and effectively as possible. Pursuant to 5 CFR 1320.13, the Department requests that OMB review and approved this collection by August 30, 2019 under its emergency procedures, based on harm to public due to an unanticipated/unforeseen natural disaster event that occurred beyond ED’s control.
