Proposed Extension of the Approval of
Information Collection Requirements
ACTION:
Notice.
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
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 Standards Administration
is soliciting comments concerning its
proposal to extend the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB)
approval of the Information Collection:
Secretary of Labor’s Opportunity Award,
Exemplary Voluntary Effort (EVE)
Award, and Exemplary Public Interest
Contribution (EPIC) Award. A copy of
the proposed information collection
request can be obtained by contacting

(EVE) Award, and Exemplary Public
Interest Contribution (EPIC) Award.
These awards are presented annually to
Federal contractors and non-profit
organizations whose activities support
the mission of the OFCCP. The
recognition of Federal contractors who
are in compliance with the OFCCP
regulations and who work with
community and public interest
organizations sends a positive message
throughout the U.S. Labor Force and
business community.
The Secretary of Labor’s Opportunity
Award and EVE Award recipients must
be Federal contractors covered by
Executive Order 11246, as amended;
Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act of
1973, as amended; and the Vietnam Era
Veterans’ Readjustment Assistance Act
of 1974, as amended.
The Secretary of Labor’s Opportunity
Award is presented to one contractor
each year that has established and
instituted comprehensive workforce
strategies to ensure equal employment
opportunity. The EVE Award is given to
those contractors who have
demonstrated through programs or
activities, exemplary and innovative
efforts to create an inclusive American
workforce. The EPIC Award is presented
to public interest organizations that
have supported equal employment
opportunity and linked their efforts
with those of the Federal contractors to
enhance employment opportunities for
those with the least opportunity to join
the workforce. Guidelines for the
nomination process can be found in
Administrative Notice Number 261
dated February 02, 2004; to view the
Notice visit OFCCP web page address at

II. Review Focus: The Department of
Labor 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
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 information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other

other forms of information technology,

three-year extension for the approval of
the Secretary of Labor’s Opportunity
Award, Exemplary Voluntary Effort
(EVE) Award, and Exemplary Public
Interest Contribution (EPIC) Award.
There is no change in the substance or
method of collection since the last OMB

received nominations for three (3)
Secretary of Labor’s Opportunity
Awards, nine (9) EVE Awards, and
fourteen (14) EPIC Awards. This

outstanding Federal contractors and
non-profit public interest organizations
that have created exceptional equal

mission.
