SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
YouthBuild is a youth and community
development program addressing
several core issues facing low-income
communities: Available housing, youth
education, employment, and criminal
behavior. The program primarily serves
high school dropouts and focuses on
helping them attain a high school
diploma or general educational
development and teaching them
construction skills geared toward career
placement. The YouthBuild Impact
Evaluation will measure core program
outcomes including educational
attainment, postsecondary planning,
employment, earnings, delinquency and
involvement with the criminal justice
system, and social and emotional
development. The evaluation represents
an important opportunity for the DOL to
add to the growing body of knowledge
about the impacts of so-called second
chance programs for youth who have
dropped out of high school. Data for the
study is being collected from
YouthBuild grantees and from study
participants through several information
collections. In this ICR, the ETA seeks
OMB approval for three follow-up
surveys with youth who were randomly
assigned in the 83 sites to either a
treatment group or control group during
earlier aspects of this ongoing
experimental evaluation. The surveys
will be fielded 12, 30, and 48 months
after random assignment.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a

The Black
Lung Benefits Act as Amended, 30
U.S.C. 901 et seq., and regulations 20
CFR 725.405 require that all relevant
medical evidence be considered before
a decision can be made regarding a
claimant’s eligibility for black lung
benefits; consequently, a person who
files such a claim may submit medical
information to the OWCP, Division of
Coal Mine Workers’ Compensation to
help develop the claim. Form CM–936
gives the claimant’s consent for the
release of that medical information by

any physician, hospital, agency, or other
organization to the OWCP.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. This ICR has been
characterized as a revision, because the
OWCP has reformatted elements of
Form CM–936 (e.g., replaced an obsolete
logo with the DOL Seal, updated the
OMB Control Number, added a notice
on rights for persons with disabilities,
and removed references to the no longer
existent Employment Standards
Administration).
A Federal agency generally cannot
conduct or sponsor a collection of
information, and the public is generally
not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by the OMB under the PRA
and displays a currently valid OMB
Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information if the
collection of information does not
display a valid Control Number. See 5
CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL
obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1240–0034. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on
November 30, 2012; however, it should
be noted that existing information
collection requirements submitted to the
OMB receive a month-to-month
extension while they undergo review.
For additional information, see the
related notice published in the Federal
Register on May 31, 2012 (77 FR 32140).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within 30 days of publication of
this notice in the Federal Register. In
order to help ensure appropriate
consideration, comments should
