ADDRESSES:
SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden
conducts a preclearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and/or continuing collections of
VerDate Aug<31>2005
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
Employment and Training
Administration is soliciting comments
concerning the collection of data about
the Workforce Investment Act
Management Information and Reporting
System.
A copy of the proposed information
collection request (ICR) can be obtained
by contacting the office listed below in

I. Background
Each state administering a grant under
the WIA adult, dislocated worker, and
youth programs is required to submit
quarterly (ETA 9090) and annual (ETA
9091) reports containing information
related to levels of participation and
performance outcomes for each
program. In addition, each state submits
a file of individual records on all
participants who exit the programs,
formally called the Workforce
Investment Act Title 1–B Standardized
Record Data (WIASRD). These
participant records are submitted once a
year based on a July-to-June program
period. This notice is requesting the
extension of the current collection
without change.
The Employment and Training
Administration is proposing similar
changes to the reporting requirements
for Wagner-Peyser Employment Service
Programs and the Trade Adjustment
Assistance Act Programs. Please note
that ETA will seek comments regarding
extensions to these collections in
separate Federal Register notices.
II. Review Focus
The Department of Labor is
particularly interested in comments
which:
* 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
