M. Campbell, Manager, Indian and
Native American Program, Room N–

Washington, DC 20210. Telephone

toll-free number).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Each Indian and Native American
(INA) grantee receiving WIA Section
166 funds to administer the
Comprehensive Services Program (CSP)
is required to submit a CSP Report (ETA
Form 9084) on a quarterly basis.
Grantees receiving WIA Section 166
Supplemental Youth Services Program
(SYSP) funds currently submit SYSP
Report (ETA Form 9085) semi-annually.
However, the request to modify and
extend the existing ETA Form 9085
report submitted each quarter by INA
grantees is based on the following:
The ETA requires the collection and
reporting of data on eligible persons
served under the WIA, Section 166
SYSP to assess the performance and
delivery of services. The recent release
of additional funds under the Recovery
Act is intended to serve a greater
number of youth and requires the
collection and reporting of participant
data to evaluate program performance.
INA grantees are now required to
submit quarterly participant data reports
on all youth served by the SYSP (see
Frequency of Reporting below) and to
distinguish between youth served with
Recovery Act funds and youth served
with regular WIA Section 166 funds and
report ‘‘Recovery Act’’ youth through a
supplemental (monthly) youth report. In
this supplemental report, INA grantees
report aggregate counts of all Recovery
Act youth participants, including the
characteristics of participants, the
number of participants in summer
employment, services received,
attainment of a work readiness skill,
required by the Recovery Act, and
successful completion of summer youth
employment.
The Recovery Act made it necessary
to create additional fields in ETA Form
9085 because of: (1) A change in
eligibility, increasing the age limit to 24;
and (2) an emphasis on using funds for
summer employment. By aligning
Recovery Act with regular program
reporting in ETA Form 9085, the
grantees are reporting critical
information with a minimal additional
burden.
Changes to Youth Reporting
Changes made to the SYSP Report
(ETA Form 9085) are provided below.
Copies of ETA Forms 9084 and 9085 can

be reviewed at: https://wdr.doleta.gov/
directives/attach/TEGL/TEGL0509a1.pdf.
Changes Made in Order To Incorporate
Recovery Act Participants
• Reporting frequency will be
monthly (Recovery Act Report only);
• Age requirement for eligibility has
been increased to 24 (Recovery Act
participants only);
• Collect information on participants
in summer employment;
• Collect information on participants
that exited summer employment;
• Collect information on participants
that successfully completed work
readiness;
• Collect information on participants
that successfully completed summer
employment;
• Work Readiness Attainment Rate
added as an indicator; and
• Summer Employment Completion
Rate added as an indicator.
Non-Recovery Act Changes To Apply to
the Regular SYSP
• Reporting frequency changed from
semi-annual to quarterly;
• Collect information on number of
youth served with disabilities;
• Collect information on number of
in-school youth served;
• Collect information on number of
out-of-school youth served;
• Collect information on the number
of youth served between the ages 14–18,
19–21; and
• Collect information on number of
eligible veterans served.
II. Review Focus
The DOL 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
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
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
