Federal Register / Vol. 77, No. 210 / Tuesday, October 30, 2012 / Notices
9141, Application for Prevailing Wage
Determination. That form is applicable
to the H–2B, H–1B, H–1B1, E–3, and
PERM programs.
On April 8, 2012, the OMB approved
changes to the information collected
under Control Number 1205–0466, in
accordance with the 2012 H–2B final
rule published on February 21, 2012 (77
FR 10038). On April 27, 2012, the DOL
received from the OMB a six-month
approval to revert to the old information
collection requirements. The approval
allowed the ETA to comply with a
Federal Court for the Northern District
of Florida, Pensacola Division,
injunction preventing the DOL from
implementing the 2012 H–2B Final
Rule. (Bayou Lawn & Landscape
Services, et al. v. Hilda L. Solis, et al.,
12-cv-00183–RV–CJK.). With minor
format changes (e.g., form names), these
ICRs maintain the existing
requirements.
The information collections covered
in this notice are 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
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 current
approval for both existing Control
Numbers is scheduled to expire on
October 31, 2012; however, it should be
noted that existing information
collections submitted to the OMB
receive a month-to-month extension
while they undergo review. Changes
only take effect upon OMB
authorization. For additional
information, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
August 15, 2012 (77 FR 49025).
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
mention the applicable OMB Control
Number or ICR Reference Number as
shown in the information collection
listing at the end of this notice. The
OMB is particularly interested in
comments that:
• 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
• 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 submission of
responses.

The Social
Security Act authorizes the DOL to
prescribe standard definitions, methods
and procedures, and reporting
requirements for the collection of
information on benefit payment
accuracy and the reemployment of
unemployment insurance benefit
recipients to ensure the verification of
these data. The DOL uses information
collected on Forms ETA–9128, 9128U,
and ETA–9129 to evaluate State
performance in terms of service delivery
and to report on the REAs, including the
number of scheduled in-person
reemployment and eligibility
assessments, the number of individuals
who failed to appear for scheduled
assessments, actions taken as a result of
individuals not appearing for an
assessment (e.g., benefits termination),
results of assessments (e.g., referral to
reemployment services, found in
compliance with program
requirements), estimated savings
resulting from cessation of benefits, and
estimated savings as a result of
accelerated reemployment. Information
collected on Form ETA–9128U is
required by the Middle Class Tax Relief
and Job Creation Act of 2012, Public
Law 112–96.
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
collection of information if it 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 1205–0456. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on
October 31, 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Social Security Act authorizes the DOL
to prescribe standard definitions, methods and procedures, and
reporting requirements for the collection of information on benefit
payment accuracy and the reemployment of unemployment insurance benefit
recipients to ensure the verification of these data. The DOL uses
information collected on Forms ETA-9128, 9128U, and ETA-9129 to
evaluate State performance in terms of service delivery and to report
on the REAs, including the number of scheduled in-person reemployment
and eligibility assessments, the number of individuals who failed to
appear for scheduled assessments, actions taken as a result of
individuals not appearing for an assessment (e.g., benefits
termination), results of assessments (e.g., referral to reemployment
services, found in compliance with program requirements), estimated
savings resulting from cessation of benefits, and estimated savings as
a result of accelerated reemployment. Information collected on Form
ETA-9128U is required by the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation
Act of 2012, Public Law 112-96.
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 collection of information if it
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 1205-0456. The current approval is scheduled to
expire on October 31, 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 August 13, 2012 (77 FR 48172).
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
