This information collection covers the following grantee reporting requirements: Workforce Information Database, State and local industry and occupational employment projections, and a statewide annual economic analysis report.

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 1205–0417.

Notice and Request for Comments—LSC merger of the two service areas covering the southern and mid-eastern regions of New Jersey. AGENCY: jstallworth on DSK7TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES ACTION: The Legal Services Corporation (LSC) proposes to merge the two service areas that cover the seven counties of the southern region of New Jersey and two counties of the mideastern region of the state. Grants for SUMMARY: VerDate Sep<11>2014 13:41 Feb 10, 2017 Jkt 241001 these individual service areas have been awarded to South Jersey Legal Services (SJLS) since 2015. LSC proposes to merge the two service areas into one service area and to award one grant for the new combined service area. Doing so will harmonize the grant structure with the current delivery model. DATES: All comments must be received on or before the close of business on March 15, 2017. ADDRESSES: Written comments may be submitted to LSC by email to competition@lsc.gov (this is the preferred option); by submitting a form online at https://www.lsc.gov/contact-us; or by mail to Legal Services Corporation, 3333 K Street NW., Third Floor, Washington, DC 20007, Attention: Reginald J. Haley. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Reginald J. Haley, Office of Program Performance, Legal Services Corporation, 3333 K Street NW., Washington, DC 20007; or by email at haleyr@lsc.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The mission of LSC is to promote equal access to justice and to provide funding for high-quality civil legal assistance to low-income persons. Pursuant to its statutory authority, LSC designates service areas in U.S. states, territories, possessions, and the District of Columbia for which it provides grants to legal aid programs to provide free civil legal services. LSC provides grants through a competitive bidding process, which is regulated by 45 CFR part 1634. Since 2015, through the competitive bidding process, SJLS has been awarded funding for the NJ–12 service area that comprises the two counties in the mideastern region of New Jersey, i.e., Ocean and Monmouth counties. During that same period, SJLS has been awarded funding for the NJ–16 service area covering the seven counties in the southern region of the service area, i.e., Atlantic, Burlington, Camden, Cape May, Cumberland, Gloucester, and Salem counties. Beginning January 1, 2018, LSC proposes to merge the two service areas into a single service area and merge the 2018 grants for those service areas into a single grant. The LSC Act charges LSC with ensuring that ‘‘grants and contracts are made so as to provide the most economical and effective delivery of legal assistance to persons in both urban and rural areas.’’ 42 U.S.C. 2996f(a)(3). Merging the two New Jersey service areas will provide an economical and effective delivery approach for serving the legal needs of the low-income population and will harmonize the grant PO 00000 Frm 00052 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 10501 structure with the current delivery model. LSC invites public comment on this proposal. Interested parties may submit comments to LSC no later than the close of business on March 15, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks approval under the PRA for 
revisions to the Workforce Information Grants to States information 
collection. This information collection covers the following grantee 
reporting requirements: Workforce Information Database, State and local 
industry and occupational employment projections, and a statewide 
annual economic analysis report. The ICR also covers related 
recordkeeping requirements. This information collection has been 
classified as a revision, because the ETA will not implement a 
previously approved online reporting system; rather, a respondent will 
copy its work onto a shared directory on an ETA Web site. Workforce 
Innovation and Opportunity Act of 2014 sections 101 and 308 authorize 
this information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 3111 and 49l-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 1205-0417. The current approval is scheduled to 
expire on March 31, 2017; 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 August 15, 2016 (81 FR 54126).
    Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, 
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in

ensure appropriate consideration, comments should mention OMB Control 
Number 1205-0417. The OMB is particularly interested in comments that:

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

     Minimize the burden of the collection of information on
