ACTION: Notice.

Administration (ETA) is soliciting comments concerning a proposed
extension for the authority to conduct the information collection
request (ICR) titled, ``Program Reporting and Performance Standards
System for Indian and Native American Programs Under Title I, Section
166 of the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act (WIOA).'' This
comment request is part of continuing Departmental efforts to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden in accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA).
DATES: Consideration will be given to all written comments received by
January 14, 2020.

Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOL, as part of continuing efforts to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public and Federal agencies an
opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of
information before submitting them to the Office of Management and
Budget (OMB) for final approval. This program helps to ensure requested
data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection requirements can be properly
assessed.
ETA requires the collection and reporting of data on eligible
persons served under the WIOA, Section 166, Comprehensive Services
Program (CSP) and Supplemental Youth Services (SYS) Program to assess
the performance and delivery of services. Each Indian and Native
American (INA) grantee receiving WIOA, Section 166 funds (non-Pub. L.
102-477 grantees) shall submit a CSP report (ETA Form 9084) on a
quarterly basis. Grantees receiving WIOA Section 166 (SYS) funds (non-
Pub. L. 102-477 grantees) shall submit a SYS program report (ETA Form
9085) semi-annually. This request is to extend the existing ETA form
9084 and 9085 report submitted each quarter/semi-annually, by INA
grantees. The current ETA forms 9084 and 9085 expire on January 31,
2020. 29 U.S.C. Chapter 30, Subchapter V, Sec. 2935(2), authorizes
this information collection.
This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency
generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and
the public is generally not required to respond to an information
collection, unless it is approved by OMB under the PRA and displays a
currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any
other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to
penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information that
does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and
1320.6.
Interested parties are encouraged to provide comments to the
contact shown in the ADDRESSES section. Comments must be written to
receive consideration, and they will be summarized and included in the
request for OMB approval of the final ICR. In order to help ensure
appropriate consideration, comments should mention OMB control number
1205-0422.
Submitted comments will also be a matter of public record for this
ICR and posted on the internet, without redaction. DOL encourages
commenters not to include personally identifiable information,
confidential business data, or other sensitive statements/information
in any comments.
DOL is particularly interested in comments that:
Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency,
including whether the information will have practical utility;
Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the
burden of the proposed collection of information, including the
validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and
Minimize the burden of the collection of information on
those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection
techniques or other forms of information technology, (e.g., permitting
electronic submission of responses).
