Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 92 / Friday, May 14, 2021 / Rules and Regulations
changed circumstances due to the coronavirus. As students are no longer required to show title IV eligibility to receive this additional aid, we are adjusting the time for students to make a request for additional funds from their institution. We estimate that it would take approximately 5 minutes per student to complete a request for additional aid for a total student burden of 1,280,908 hours .08 hours
16,011,355 students.
An emergency collection, 18400844, was previously approved by OMB on June 17, 2020 for the burden assessed to both institutions and students as noted in the IFR and ICR supporting statement. The emergency collection had an expiration date of December 31, 2020. The comment period for the ICR
closed August 18, 2020. Of the four comments received for the ICR two were substantive comments that echoed comments filed for the IFR. The emergency clearance lapsed without
filing either a 30-day public comment period request for the ICR or a request to discontinue the ICR.
The Department received emergency approval under OMB control number 18400857 in order to allow institutions to utilize the revised student definition for purposes of disbursing funds to students as soon as possible. The Department will publish 60-day and 30day Federal Register notices as required by 5 CFR 1320.8d, soliciting comments on the information collection.

Executive Order 13132 requires us to ensure meaningful and timely input by State and local elected officials in the development of regulatory policies that have federalism implications.
Federalism implications means substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship between the National Government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.
In the IFR, we solicited comments on whether the rule may have federalism implications and encouraged State and local elected officials to review and provide comments. In the Public Comment section of this preamble, we discuss any comments we received on this subject.
