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.
The purpose of this ICR is to fulfill the performance and reporting
requirements of the Older Americans Act (OAA) (Reauthorized by the
Supporting Older Americans Act of 2020, Pub. L. 116-131 (March 25,
2020)). This revision request seeks to (1) restore with revisions the
SCSEP Data Collection Instrument (Form ETA-9191), (2) renew without
changes SCSEP's Customer Satisfaction Survey collection instruments
(Form ETA-9124A--Participant Survey, Form ETA-9124B--Host Agency
Survey, Form ETA-9124C1--Employer Survey for Host Agency Employers, and
Form ETA-9124C2--Employer Survey for Non-Host Agency Employers), and
(3) remove two pilot survey forms that have been completed (Form ETA-
9124A--Participant Survey Pilot Project and Form ETA-9124C2--Non-Host
Agency Employer Survey Pilot Project).
The restored Form ETA-9191 has been revised to eliminate data
elements already authorized under OMB Control Number 1205-0521 and
included in the DOL Participant Individual Record Layout document (Form
ETA-9172), while retaining program-specific information unique to
SCSEP's mission. The instrument also includes data elements to support
a demonstration project awarded to nine SCSEP grantees through FOA-ETA-
24-12. The SCSEP survey collection instruments (Form ETA-9124A-C) are
used to report the American Customer Satisfaction Index score to meet
the definition of one of the core SCSEP measures, indicators of
effectiveness in serving employers, host agencies, and participants.
These changes are required to ensure accurate data collection for
SCSEP's performance accountability and program management requirements
(OAA sections 513(b)(1)(E) and 20 CFR 641.700, 641.710, and 641.879).
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
1205-0040.
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:
<bullet> 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;
<bullet> 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;
<bullet> Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and
<bullet> 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).
