SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014

This ICR
seeks approval under the PRA for
revisions to the National Longitudinal
Survey of Youth 1979 (NLSY79). The
NLSY79 is a representative national
sample of persons who were born in the
years 1957 to 1964 and lived in the U.S.
in 1978. These respondents were ages
14 to 22 when the first round of
interviews began in 1979; they will be
ages 51 to 58 when the planned round
twenty-seven of interviews is conducted
in 2016 and 2017. The NLSY79 was
conducted annually from 1979 to 1994
and has been conducted biennially
since 1994. The longitudinal focus of
this survey requires information to be
collected from the same individuals
over many years in order to trace their
education, training, work experience,
fertility, income, and program
participation. In addition to the main
NLSY79, the biological children of
female NLSY79 respondents have been
surveyed since 1986. A battery of child
cognitive, socio-emotional, and
physiological assessments has been
administered biennially since 1986 to
NLSY79 mothers and their children.
Starting in 1994, children who had
reached age 15 by December 31, of the
survey year (the Young Adults) were
interviewed about their work
experiences, training, schooling, health,
fertility, self-esteem, and other topics.
By 2016, the sample includes very few
children age 14 and under and so we
will no longer conduct a separate child
survey; children age 12 and older will
join the Young Adults. The Young
Adult group will include 1,492
respondents ages 12–22 and 5,178
respondents age 23 and older in Round

27. One DOL goal is to produce and
disseminate timely, accurate, and
relevant information about the U.S.
labor force. The BLS contributes to this
goal by gathering information about the
labor force and labor market and
disseminating it to policymakers and
the public so that participants in those
markets can make more informed, and
thus more efficient, choices. Research
based on the NLSY79 contributes to the
formation of national policy in the areas
of education, training, employment
programs, and school-to-work
transitions. The BLS has undertaken a
continuing redesign effort to examine
the current content of the NLSY79 and
provide direction for changes that may
be appropriate as the respondents age.
The 2016 instrument reflects a number
of changes recommended by experts in
various fields of social science and by
our own internal review of the survey’s
content. Additions to the questionnaire
are accompanied by deletions of
previous questions that largely offset the
burden as compared to 2014. The BLS
Authorizing Statute authorizes this
information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 1
and 2.
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 1220–0109. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on
September 30, 2016; 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
March 29, 2016 (81 FR 17496).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within thirty (30) days of
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register. In order to help ensure
appropriate consideration, comments
should mention OMB Control Number

22JYN1
Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 141 / Friday, July 22, 2016 / Notices
1220–0109. The OMB 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.

This ICR

Petition for Finding Under Employee
Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)
section 3(40) (29 U.S.C. 1002(40))
information collection. Regulations 29
CFR 2570.150 et seq. provide
procedures for an entity against whom
State jurisdiction has been asserted to
petition the Secretary to make a finding
under ERISA section 3(40)(A)(i) (29
U.S.C. 1002(40)(A)(i)) that the entity is
established or maintained under or
pursuant to one or more collective
bargaining agreements. The regulations
establish procedures for initiating an
administrative proceeding before the
Office of Administrative Law Judges
(OALJ) and establish that an OALJ

decision shall constitute a finding under
ERISA section 3(40)(A)(i). The
regulations also provide for an appeal of
an OALJ decision to the Secretary.
ERISA sections 3(40) and 505 authorize
this information collection. See 29
U.S.C. 1002(40), 1135.
This information collection is subject

obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1210–0119.
OMB authorization for an ICR cannot
be for more than three (3) years without
renewal, and the current approval for
this collection is scheduled to expire on
July 31, 2016. The DOL seeks to extend
PRA authorization for this information
collection for three (3) more years,
without any change to existing
requirements. The DOL notes that
existing information collection
requirements submitted to the OMB
receive a month-to-month extension
while they undergo review. For
