Summary of Information Collection
Community property owners and
managers establish an account to
publish property listings for Service
Members to review. The property owner
and manager information allows
military housing offices to validate
property owners and managers
intentions to list properties on the
public Web site for renting to service
members. Property owner and manager
names and contact information, along
with information about their rental
properties is displayed on the Web site,
allowing services members to make
contact if interested in their listings.
Information collected on the Web site
is also used to create metrics on the use
and success of the Web site, i.e.,
quantitative metrics on rental listings,
listing costs and amenities, and metrics
on the number of views by page. Listing
information may also be used to support
the annual DoD survey for the Basic
Allowance for Housing (BAH) and the
Overseas Housing Allowance (OHA).

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

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

burden of this collection on the
respondents, including through the use

Title of Collection: Streamlined
Clearance Process for Discretionary
Grants.
OMB Control Number: 1894–0001.
Type of Review: A revision of an
existing information collection.
Respondents/Affected Public:
Individuals or households.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Responses: 1.
Total Estimated Number of Annual
Burden Hours: 1.
Abstract: Section 3505(a)(2) of the
PRA of 1995 provides the OMB Director
authority to approve the streamlined
clearance process proposed in this
information collection request. This
information collection request was
originally approved by OMB in January
of 1997. This information collection
streamlines the clearance process for all
discretionary grant information
collections which do not fit the generic
application process. The streamlined
clearance process continues to reduce
the clearance time for the U.S.
Department of Education’s (ED’s)
discretionary grant information
collections by two months or 60 days.
This is desirable for two major reasons:
It would allow ED to provide better
customer service to grant applicants and
help meet ED’s goal for timely awards
of discretionary grants.
Dated: February 18, 2016.
