I. Background
The collection of actual
Unemployment Insurance (UI)
administrative cost data from states’
accounting records and projected
expenditures for upcoming years is
accomplished through the RJM data
collection instrument. The data
collected consists of the actual, most
recently completed fiscal year’s program
expenditures and hours broken out by
functional activity and two years of
projected expenditures. The actual cost
data informs ETA’s administrative
funding allocation model so that state
UI program administration funds are
allocated as equitably as possible among
states.
II. Desired Focus of Comments
Currently, the Department of Labor is
soliciting comments concerning the
proposed extension of the RJM data
collection. Comments are requested to:
* 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

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 117 / Friday, June 18, 2010 / Notices
* Minimize the burden of the
information collection on those who are
to respond, including 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.
III. Current Actions
The data collected within the RJM
state submissions are used as input to
the process of distributing UI program
appropriated funds among the states
and inform ETA of the funding
requirements states are anticipating.
Type of Review: Extension without
change.
Agency: Employment and Training
Administration.
Title: Resource Justification Model.
OMB Number: 1205–0430.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor (DOL)
conducts a variety of voluntary
Customer Satisfaction Surveys of
regulated/non-regulated entities, which
are specifically designed to gather
information from a customer’s
perspective as prescribed by E.O. 12862,
Setting Customer Service Standards,
September 11, 1993. These Customer
Satisfaction Surveys provide
information on customer attitudes about
the delivery and quality of agency
products/services and are used as part
of an ongoing process to improve DOL
programs. This generic clearance allows
agencies to gather information from both
Federal and non-Federal users. In
addition to conducting Customer
Satisfaction Surveys, the Department
also includes the use of evaluation
forms for those DOL agencies
conducting conferences. These
evaluations are helpful in determining
the success of the current conference, in
developing future conferences, and in
meeting the needs of the Department’s
product/service users.
II. Current Actions
This is a new collection. The Federal
Employees’ Compensation Act provides
workers’ compensation coverage to
three million federal and postal workers
around the world for employmentrelated injuries and occupational
diseases. The Division of Federal
Employees’ Compensation (DFEC) is
charged with administering the FECA
program. To obtain better feedback
