proposed information collection projects, the Indian Health Service 
(IHS) is publishing for comment a summary of a proposed information 
collection to be submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
for review. This proposed information collection project was previously 
published in the Federal Register (77 FR 115) on June 14, 2012 and 
allowed 60 days for public comment. No public comment was received in 
response to the notice. The purpose of this notice is to allow 30 days 
for public comment to be submitted directly to OMB.

Employment, Child Care and Indian Child Care Worker Positions (OMB No.

Child care Worker Positions'' (OMB No. 0917-0028), where the item 
number 15a was changed to 16 to reflect a change in the same item
