{"abstract":"We announce our intention to establish one negotiated rulemaking committee to prepare proposed regulations for the Federal Student Aid programs authorized under title IV of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended (HEA). The committee will include representatives of organizations or groups with interests that are significantly affected by the subject matter of the proposed regulations. We request nominations for individual negotiators who represent key stakeholder constituencies for the issues to be negotiated to serve on the committee, and we set a schedule for committee meetings. We also announce the creation of three subcommittees, and request nominations for individuals with pertinent expertise to participate on the subcommittees.","action":"Intent to establish negotiated rulemaking committee.","agencies":[{"raw_name":"DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION","name":"Education Department","id":126,"url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/agencies/education-department","json_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/api/v1/agencies/126","parent_id":null,"slug":"education-department"}],"body_html_url":"https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/full_text/html/2018/10/15/2018-22506.html","cfr_references":[{"chapter":0,"citation_url":null,"part":null,"title":34}],"citation":"83 FR 51906","comment_url":null,"comments_close_on":null,"correction_of":null,"corrections":[],"dates":"We must receive your nominations for negotiators to serve on the committees on or before November 15, 2018.
