served. Additional indicators of
performance include: (1) Retention in
unsubsidized employment for one (1)
year; (2) satisfaction of the participants,
employers, and host agencies with their
experiences and the services provided;
and (3) exiting participants who enter
volunteer work. This information
collection has been classified as a
revision, because (1) of changes that will
provide additional data fields to
grantees that have received awards in
PY 2013 under a limited competition for
pilot grants; (2) the ETA is introducing
a quarterly narrative report to
standardize the quarterly submission;
(3) of changes to the Equitable
Distribution Report to reflect that all of
the data required for an analysis
equitable distribution of resources is
now provided to grantees on
SCSEPED.org; and (4) additional
questions to each of the customer
satisfaction surveys. Older Americans
Act section 513(f) authorizes this
information collection. See 42 U.S.C.
3056(f).
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 the 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. The DOL
obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1205–0040. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on
March 31, 2015; however, the DOL
notes that existing information
collection requirements submitted to the
OMB receive a month-to-month
extension while they undergo review.
New requirements would only take
effect upon OMB approval. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
November 5, 2014 (79 FR 65705).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section by April 30, 2015. In order to
help ensure appropriate consideration,
comments should mention OMB Control
Number 1205–0040. The OMB is
particularly interested in comments
that:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary

including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
