SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.) and 5 CFR 1320.8(d)(1), we
provide the general public and other federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on new, proposed, revised, and continuing
collections of information. This helps us assess the impact of our
information collection requirements and minimize the public's reporting
burden. It also helps the public understand our information collection
requirements and provide the requested data in the desired format.
On April 6, 2023, we published the 60-day Federal Register Notice
in the Federal Register (88 FR 20548) to request OMB to approve the
renewal of the information collection associated with the Youth
Conservation Corps Application and Medical History Forms. We solicited
public comments for 60 days, ending June 5, 2023. We did not receive
any comments from the public.
As part of our continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent
burdens, we are again soliciting comments from the public and other
federal agencies on the proposed ICR that is described below. We are
especially interested in public comment addressing the following:
(1) Whether or not the collection of information is necessary for
the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including
whether or not the information will have practical utility;
(2) The accuracy of our estimate of the burden for this collection
of information, including the validity of the methodology and
assumptions used;
(3) Ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and
(4) How might the agency 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 response.
Comments that you submit in response to this notice are a matter of
public record. Before including your address, phone number, email
address, or other personal identifying information in your comment, you
should be aware that your entire comment--including your personal
identifying information--may be made publicly available at any time.
While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your personal
identifying information from public review, we cannot guarantee that we
will be able to do so.
Abstract: The Youth Conservation Corps (YCC) is a summer youth
employment program that engages young people in meaningful work
experiences at national parks, forests, wildlife refuges, and fish
hatcheries while developing an ethic of environmental stewardship and
civic responsibility. YCC programs are generally eight to ten weeks and
members are paid at least the state or federal minimum wage (whichever
is higher) for a 40-hour work week. YCC opportunities provide paid
daytime work activities with members who commute to the federal unit
daily. Authorized by the Youth Conservation Corps Act of August 13,
1970, as amended (U.S. 1701-1706), participating agencies (National
Park Service, U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Forest Service) use
common forms: DI- 4014, ``Youth Conservation Corps Application'' and
DI-4015, ``Youth Conservation Corps Medical History'' to collect
information to determine the eligibility of each youth for employment
with the YCC. Parents or guardians must sign both forms if the
applicant is under 18 years of age.
Title of Collection: Youth Conservation Corps Application and
Medical History Form.
OMB Control Number: 1093-0010.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Respondents/Affected Public: Youths 15 through 18 years old seeking
seasonal employment in the YCC Program.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Respondents: 11,409 (8,599/
application 2,810/medical history).
Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 11,409 (8,599/
application 2,810/medical history).
Estimated Completion Time per Response: 25 minutes/application and
14 minutes/medical history form.
Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 4,239 hours (3,583
hours/application and 656 hours/medical history forms).
Respondent's Obligation: Required to obtain or retain a benefit.
Frequency of Collection: On occasion.
Total Estimated Annual Non-Hour Burden Cost: None.
An agency may not conduct, or sponsor, and a person is not required
to respond to a collection of information unless it displays a
currently valid OMB control number.
The authority for this action is the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.).

Departmental Information Collection Clearance Officer.
