SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The regulations at 20 CFR 651, 653, and 658 under the Wagner Peyser 
Act, as amended by the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) of 1998, set 
forth requirements to ensure that Migrant and Seasonal Farmworkers 
(MSFWs) receive services that are qualitatively equivalent and 
quantitatively proportionate to the services provided to non-MSFWs. In 
compliance with 20 CFR 653.109, DOL established record keeping 
requirements to allow for the efficient and effective monitoring of 
State Workforce Agencies' (SWAs) regulatory compliance. The ETA Form 
5148, Services to Migrant and Seasonal Farm Workers Report, is used to 
collect data which are primarily used to monitor and measure the extent 
and effectiveness of SWA service delivery to MSFWs. The ETA Form 8429, 
One-Stop Career Center Compliant Referral Record, is used to collect 
and document complaints filed by MSFWs and non-MSFWs pursuant to the 
regulatory framework established at 20 CFR 658.400.

     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 by including the use of appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or
