SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general 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
(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. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics (BLS) is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed extension of
the ‘‘Report on Occupational
Employment and Wages.’’ 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.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted to the office listed in the
ADDRESSES section of this notice on or
before April 9, 2007.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Occupational Employment
Statistics (OES) survey is a Federal/State
establishment survey of wage and salary
workers designed to produce data on
current occupational employment and
wages. OES survey data assist in the
development of employment and
training programs established by the
1998 Workforce Investment Act (WIA),
and the Perkins Vocational Education
Act of 1998.
The OES program operates a periodic
mail survey of a sample of non-farm
establishments conducted by all fifty
States, Guam, Puerto Rico, the District
of Columbia, and the Virgin Islands.
Over three-year periods, data on
occupational employment and wages
are collected by industry at the fourand five-digit North American Industry
Classification System (NAICS) levels.
The Department of Labor uses OES data
in the administration of the Foreign
Labor Certification process under the
Immigration Act of 1990.
II. Current Action
Office of Management and Budget
clearance is being sought for the
Occupational Employment Statistics
(OES) program. Occupational
employment data obtained by the OES
survey are used to develop information
regarding current and projected
employment needs and job
opportunities. These data assist in the
development of State vocational
education plans. OES wage data provide
a significant source of information to
support a number of different Federal,
State, and local efforts.
After being rigorously tested in six
volunteer States, email collection has
been implemented successfully in all
fifty States. Currently, six percent of
establishments submit data by email.
These six percent of establishments
account for twenty six percent of
collected employment for the November
2005 panel.
III. Desired Focus of Comments
The Bureau of Labor Statistics 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
