The Department of Labor (DOL) is submitting four related Employment and Training Administration (ETA) sponsored information collection requests (ICRs) to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval for use in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.). The ICR titles are H–2A Foreign Labor Certification Program, Labor Certification Letter for H–2A Agricultural Foreign Workers, H–2B Foreign Labor Certification Program, and Application for Prevailing Wage Determination. SUMMARY: Submit comments on or before November 29, 2012. ADDRESSES: A copy of these ICRs with applicable supporting documentation; including a description of the likely respondents, proposed frequency of response, and estimated total burden may be obtained from the RegInfo.gov Web site, https://www.reginfo.gov/ public/do/PRAMain, on the day following publication of this notice or by contacting Michel Smyth by telephone at 202–693–4129 (this is not a toll-free number) or sending an email to DOL_PRA_PUBLIC@dol.gov. Submit comments about these requests to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Attn: OMB Desk Officer for DOL–ETA, Office of Management and Budget, Room 10235, 725 17th Street NW., Washington, DC 20503, Fax: 202–395–6881 (this is not a wreier-aviles on DSK7SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES DATES: VerDate Mar<15>2010 13:17 Oct 29, 2012 Jkt 229001 toll-free number), email: OIRA_submission@omb.eop.gov. FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Michel Smyth by telephone at 202–693– 4129 (this is not a toll-free number) or by email at DOL_PRA_PUBLIC@dol.gov. Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). The Immigration and Nationality Act (INA) requires the Secretary of Labor to certify, among other things, that any foreign worker seeking to enter the United States (U.S.) to perform certain skilled or unskilled labor will not, by doing so, adversely affect wages and working conditions of U.S. workers similarly employed. The Secretary must also certify that there are not sufficient U.S. workers able, willing, and qualified to perform such skilled or unskilled labor. Before any employer may petition for any temporary skilled or unskilled foreign workers, it must submit a request for certification to the Secretary containing the elements prescribed by the INA and regulations. See 8 U.S.C. 1011(a)(15)(H)(ii)(a), 1011(a)(15)(H)(ii)(b), 1184(c), and 1188 and 8 CFR 214.2(h). The DOL currently obtains OMB approval for the subject information collections under Control Numbers 1205–0466, Foreign Labor Certification Instruments, and 1205–0404, Labor Certification Letter for H–2A Agricultural Foreign Workers. In order to improve internal administration of the information collection requirements, the DOL is taking this opportunity to rename OMB Control Number 1205– 0466 and to separate out the three different sets of information collection requirements under three unique Control Numbers. While the Department believes it must now submit the information collections approved under Control Number 1205–0404 and 1205– 0466 as separate ICRs, in order to maintain OMB clearance for the existing requirements, the DOL intends to merge the ICRs via a non-material change request to the 1205–0466 ICR. Such a request would be made upon receiving OMB approval of the current actions and would not change the information collection requirements in any way; the DOL would simultaneously seek to discontinue Control Number 1205– 0404. The first of current actions being submitted for OMB approval is revised Control Number 1205–0466 that will contain Form ETA–9142A, H–2A Application for Temporary Employment Certification and Appendix A; and most regulatory information collection requirements applicable to the H–2A SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: PO 00000 Frm 00054 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 65715 program. The H–2A program enables employers to bring nonimmigrant foreign workers to the U.S. to perform agricultural work of a temporary or seasonal nature as defined in 8 U.S.C. 1101(a)(15)(H)(ii)(a). Information obtained on Form ETA–9142A provides the basis for the Secretary’s determination whether no U.S. workers are available. Form ETA–9142A, collects information to permit the Department to meet its statutory responsibilities for administering the H– 2A temporary labor certification program. The second current ICR being submitted for OMB approval is Control Number 1205–0404, which specifically has to do with the notification requirements of the 50 percent rule in the H–2A program and is being submitted without changes. Regulations 20 CFR 655.135(d) stipulates that an employer must continue to provide employment to any qualified and eligible U.S. worker who applies to the employer until 50 percent of the work contract period, under which the foreign worker is in the job, has elapsed. The notification required under the regulations at 20 CFR 655.135(c) is written by the employer and sent to the applicable State Workforce Agency (SWA), if the foreign worker begins traveling to the employer’s place of work any time after the three days prior to the first date of need specified in the work contract. The SWA uses the information to calculate the end of the 50 percent rule referral requirements. The regulations also specify other notifications the employer must make (e.g., remind the worker of the requirement to leave the U.S. at the end of the certified period for work or upon separation from the employer, unless the worker is being sponsored by a subsequent employer; and informing the DOL of H–2A workers who have abandoned their jobs or been terminated). The ETA uses Form ETA– 9144 to inform employers of these obligations. The first new ICR the DOL is currently submitting has been issued ICR Reference Number 201210–1205– 001, H–2B Foreign Labor Certification Program. This new ICR will contain forms and most regulatory information collection requirements applicable to the H–2B program. Specifically, it will contain Form ETA 9142B, H–2B Application for Temporary Employment Certification and Appendix B. The second new ICR the DOL is submitting has been assigned ICR Reference Number 201210–1205–002, Application for Prevailing Wage Determination, will contain Form ETA– E:\FR\FM\30OCN1.SGM 30OCN1
