will receive the questionnaire, and the
average time to complete will be about
15 minutes. (The number of students is
based on appropriate number of
students from fiscal years 2012 -2013).
Though we would like a 100% response
rate, we anticipate a 75% response rate
of those surveyed (or 750); with 25% of
the students not responding to the
questionnaire.
6 An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: Given that the approximately
75% of those surveyed (or 750) will
respond, the total public burden for
completing the questionnaire is 187
hours.

preclearance consultation program to
provide the public and Federal agencies
with an opportunity to comment on
proposed and/or continuing collections
of information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 [44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)] (PRA). The PRA

requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed.
Currently, ETA is soliciting comments
concerning the information collection
request (ICR) to collect data about the
extension of the currently approved
reporting and recordkeeping system to
support the Reintegration of ExOffenders-Adult (RExO-Adult) grants,
which expires on May 31, 2015.
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: 1025–

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
In applying for the Reintegration of
Ex-Offender-Adult grants, applicants
agree to submit participant data and
quarterly aggregate reports for
individuals who receive services
through RExO-Adult programs and their
partnerships with American Job Centers,
local Workforce Investment Boards,
employment providers, the criminal
justice system, and local housing
authorities. The reports include
aggregate data on demographic
characteristics, types of services
received, placements, outcomes, and
follow-up status. Specifically, they
summarize data on participants who
received employment and placement
services, housing assistance, mentoring,
and other services essential to
reintegrating ex-offenders through
RExO-Adult programs.

The Department requests an extension
of the currently approved information
collection to meet the reporting and
record-keeping requirements of the
Reintegration of Ex-Offenders-Adult
grants through an ETA-provided, Webbased Management Information System
(MIS). In addition to reporting
participant information and
performance-related outcomes, RExOAdult grantees demonstrate their ability
to establish effective partnerships with
the criminal justice system, local
Workforce Investment Boards, local
housing authorities, and other partner
agencies. They also document the cost
effectiveness of their projects. The MIS
reporting and record-keeping system
incorporates each of these aspects
necessary for program evaluation.
This information collection maintains
a reporting and record-keeping system
for a minimum level of information
collection that is necessary to comply
with Equal Opportunity requirements,
to hold RExO-Adult grantees
appropriately accountable for the
Federal funds they receive, including
common performance measures, and to
allow the Department to fulfill its
oversight and management
responsibilities.
II. Review Focus
The Department is particularly
interested in comments which:
• 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;
• Valuate 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 submissions
of responses.
