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. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics (BLS) is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed new collection
of the ‘‘BLS GREEN TECHNOLOGIES
AND PRACTICES SURVEY.’’ A copy of
the proposed information collection
request (ICR) can be obtained by
contacting the individual listed below
in the ADDRESSES section of this notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:

I. Background
The Occupational Employment
Statistics (OES) program has been
funded to collect and produce objective
and reliable information on
occupational employment and wages for
green jobs at the establishment level.
This is to be conducted through a
special employer survey. This work is
necessary to meet the publication
objective outlined in the FY2010
Congressional Appropriation.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)
presented its approach to measuring
green jobs and published its final
definition of green jobs in the
September 21, 2010, Federal Register
(75 FR 57506). The measurement
approach includes two surveys: one on
jobs related to producing green goods
and services, and one on jobs related to
using environmentally friendly
production processes and practices.
The latter approach will be
accomplished through a special
employer survey. This information
collection request is for the Green
Technologies and Practices (GTP)
Survey. This survey includes collecting
the current employment for the
establishment; collecting information on
the use of environmentally friendly
production processes within the
establishment; and collecting the
number, occupation, and wages paid to
employees of the establishment
performing environmentally friendly
activities.
II. Current Action
Office of Management and Budget
clearance is being sought for the ‘‘BLS
Green Technologies and Practices
Survey.’’ The goal of BLS and its OES
program is to produce economic
statistics on employment related to the
use of environmentally friendly
technologies and practices across the
U.S. economy. Using its business
establishment register, the OES program
intends to survey establishments about
these green activities and the associated
employment. The survey will identify
employers performing green activities,
determine whether they have any
employees performing tasks associated
with these activities, gather information
to classify those employees according to
the Standard Occupational
Classification (SOC) system, and collect
wage rate information.
III. Desired Focus of Comments
The Bureau of Labor Statistics is
particularly interested in comments
that:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
E:\FR\FM\03FEN1.SGM
03FEN1
6162
Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 23 / Thursday, February 3, 2011 / Notices
• 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.

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.
