SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office
of Management and Budget (OMB)
regulations at 5 CFR part 1320, which
implement provisions of the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501
et seq.), require that interested members
of the public and affected agencies have
an opportunity to comment on
information collection and
recordkeeping activities (see 5 CFR
1320.8(d)). The Committee plans to
submit a request to OMB to renew its
approval of the collections of
information concerning annual
certification of nonprofit agencies
serving people who are blind or who
have other significant disabilities to
participate in the AbilityOne Program.
The Committee is requesting a 3-year
term of approval for these information
collection activities.
Federal agencies may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. The OMB control
numbers for these collections of
information are 3037–0002 and 3037–
0001.
The JWOD Act of 1971 (41 U.S.C.
Chapter 85) is the authorizing
legislation for the AbilityOne Program.
The AbilityOne Program creates jobs
and training opportunities for people
who are blind or who have other severe
disabilities. Its primary means of doing
so is by requiring Government agencies
to purchase selected products and
services from nonprofit agencies
employing such individuals. The
AbilityOne Program is administered by
the Committee. Two national,
independent organizations, National
Industries for the Blind (NIB) and NISH,
SUMMARY:
PO 00000
Frm 00035
Fmt 4703

help State and private nonprofit
agencies participate in the AbilityOne
Program.
The implementing regulations for the
JWOD Act, which are located at 41 CFR
Chapter 51, provide the requirements,
procedures, and standards for the
AbilityOne Program. Section 51–4.3 of
the regulations sets forth the standards
that a nonprofit agency must meet to
maintain qualification for participation
in the AbilityOne Program. Under this
section of the regulations, a nonprofit
agency that wants to continue to
participate in the AbilityOne Program
must submit a completed copy of the
appropriate Annual Certification form
(Committee Form 403 or 404). This
documentation helps the Committee
determine whether the applicant
nonprofit agency is meeting the
requirements of the AbilityOne
Program.
This information collection renewal
request seeks approval for the
Committee to continue to collect the
information required under 41 CFR 51–
4.3 of the regulations so that the
Committee can continue to verify the
appropriateness of nonprofit agencies
that would like to participate in the
JWOD Program. Both forms have added
three new questions concerning the
number of veterans employed at the
agencies doing direct labor and the
wages paid to veterans working on
AbilityOne projects and have revised
the language at the bottom of the
certification section.

hours. Note: this burden estimate is only
for the reporting of information; a
separate burden estimate exists for the
recordkeeping requirement.
