early opportunity to comment on information collection requests. OMB 
may amend or waive the requirement for public consultation to the 
extent that public participation in the approval process would defeat 
the purpose of the information collection, violate State or Federal

its statutory obligations. The Acting Leader, Information Management 
Case Services Team, Regulatory Information Management Services, Office 
of Management, publishes that notice containing proposed information

Competition.
    Frequency: Annually.
    Affected Public: Not-for-profit institutions.

    Abstract: This grant competition identifies and disseminates 
information about exemplary and effective alcohol or other drug abuse 
prevention programs implemented on college campuses. Through this grant 
competition, ED also will recognize colleges and universities whose 
programs, while not yet exemplary or effective, show evidence that they 
are promising. Section 4121 of the No Child Left Behind Act of 2001 
authorizes funds for drug abuse and violence prevention programs for 
students enrolled in institutions of higher education. This form 
requests programmatic and budgetary information needed to evaluate 
applications based on the authorizing legislation and selection 
criteria identified in the notice of proposed priority, definitions, 
requirements, and selection criteria. The application package, which 
uses program-specific selection criteria, is a revised version of the 
previously used generic application.
    This information collection is being submitted under the 
Streamlined Clearance Process for Discretionary Grant Information 
Collections (1890-0001). Therefore, the 30-day public comment period 
notice will be the only public comment notice published for this 
information collection.
