ACTION:
Notice.
The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation

opportunity to comment on proposed
and/or continuing collections of
information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This
program helps to ensure that 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 on respondents can be
properly assessed. Currently, the Bureau
of Labor Statistics (BLS) is soliciting
comments concerning the proposed
extension of the ‘‘Current Population
Survey (CPS) Volunteer Supplement.’’ A
copy of the proposed information
collection request (ICR) can be obtained
by contacting the individual listed
below in the ADDRESSES section of this
notice.

submitted to the office listed in the

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
I. Background
The September 2005 CPS Volunteer
Supplement will be conducted at the
request of the Corporation for National
and Community Service, and USA
Freedom Corps. The Volunteer
Supplement will provide information
on the total number of individuals in
the U.S. involved in unpaid volunteer
activities, measures of the frequency or
intensity with which individuals
volunteer, types of organizations that
facilitate volunteerism, activities in
which volunteers participate, and
reasons why former volunteers no
longer do volunteer work.
Because the Volunteer Supplement is

the CPS will be available on
respondents to the Supplement.
Comparisons of volunteer activities will
be possible across characteristics such
as sex, race, age, and educational
attainment of the respondent. It is
intended that the Supplement will be
conducted annually, if resources permit,
in order to gauge changes in
volunteerism.
