Short Statement: There is no material change in the public burden imposed by this information collection. Adjustments have been recorded in the ROCIS database to reflect the three parts covered by the overall WECEP information collection request and the fact that schools would be independent respondents from States. These adjustments result in an increase of two additional information collections being identified and 280 additional respondents. In addition, prior estimates reflected only a single recordkeeping item for each State Education Agency to record each school enrolling students under a WECEP. Identifying each entry as a separate response results in an adjustment reflecting an increase of 273 estimated responses but no additional burden hours, because prior submissions reflected the total time. Finally, the Department has increased the maintenance and operational cost publicly reported via www.reginfo.gov Web site by $3.00, rounded, because Form OMB-83-I that was previously used to report costs sought entries in $1,000 increments. The ROCIS database reports costs more precisely. The Department has mentioned these costs in prior supporting statements for this collection of information.

Annual Cost to Federal Government: $577
