on the Department’s Web site, as
required by Section 221 of the Act (19
U.S.C. 2271), the Department initiated
investigations of these petitions.
The following determinations
terminating investigations were issued
because the petitioning groups of
workers are covered by active

investigation in these cases would serve
no purpose since the petitioning group
of workers cannot be covered by more
than one certification at a time.

and respondent burden, invites the
general public and other Federal
agencies to take this opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing information collections, as
required by the Paperwork Reduction
Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13, 44 U.S.C.

and Regulatory Affairs, Office of
Management and Budget, 725 7th Street

Desk Officer for NASA.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Requests for additional information or
copies of the information collection
instrument(s) and instructions should

I. Abstract
NASA’s founding legislation, the
Space Act of 1958, as amended, directs
the agency to expand human knowledge
of Earth and space phenomena and to
preserve the role of the United States as
a leader in aeronautics, space science,
and technology. The NASA Office of
Education administers the agency’s
national education activities in support
of the Space Act, including the
performance measurement and
evaluation of educational projects and
programs. This generic clearance will
allow the NASA Office of Education to
test and pilot with subject matter
experts, secondary students, higher
education students, educators, and
interested parties new and existing
information collection forms and
assessment instruments for the purposes
of improvement and establishing
validity and reliability characteristics of
the forms and instruments. Forms and
instruments to be tested include
program application forms, customer
satisfaction questionnaires, focus group
protocols, and project activity survey
instruments. Methodological testing will
include focus group discussions, pilot
surveys to test new individual question
items as well as the complete form and
instrument. In addition, test-retest and
similar protocols will be used to
determine reliability characteristics of
the forms and instruments.
Methodological testing will assure that
forms and instruments accurately and
consistently collect and measure what
they are intended to measure and that
data collection items are interpreted
precisely and consistently, all towards
the goal of accurate Agency reporting
while improving the execution of NASA
Education project activities.
This 30-day FRN reflects a reduction
in the estimated number of respondents,
as published in the 60-day FRN, Volume
78, Number 237, pages 74169–74170 on
Tuesday, December 10, 2013. The
targeted respondent pool will include
educators, pre-college, undergraduate,
graduate, and post-graduate students

only. As a result of this reduction, the
estimated cost burden associated with
the amount of time it will take for each
respondent to read the instructions,
gather the information, and submit also
decreased.
II. Method of Collection

interviews.

the proposed collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of the functions of NASA, including
whether the information collected has
practical utility; (2) the accuracy of
NASA’s estimate of the burden
(including hours and cost) of the
proposed collection of information; (3)
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and (4) ways to minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on respondents, including automated
collection techniques or the use of other
forms of information technology.

libraries and 35,000 museums. The
Institute’s mission is to inspire libraries
and museums to advance innovation,
learning and civic engagement. The
Institute works at the national level and
in coordination with State and local
organizations to sustain heritage,
culture, and knowledge; enhance
learning and innovation; and support
professional development. IMLS is
responsible for identifying national
needs for and trends in museum,
library, and information services;
measuring and reporting on the impact
and effectiveness of museum, library
and information services throughout the
United States, including programs
conducted with funds made available by
IMLS; identifying, and disseminating
information on, the best practices of
such programs; and developing plans to
improve museum, library and
information services of the United
States and strengthen national, State,
local, regional, and international
communications and cooperative
networks (20 U.S.C. Chapter 72, 20
U.S.C. 9108).
II. Current Actions
The purpose of this collection is to
support a program to increase access to
museums for underserved audiences
through Museums for All, a voluntary
program inviting museums to allow
Electronic Benefit Transfer (EBT) card
holders to receive reduced-price
admission to their facilities. This
information collection will obtain data
from participating museums needed to
administer the program, such as
institution contact information and a
staff person to administer the program.
Because this is a new program,
additional information will be collected
to assess implementation of the program
components, the efficacy of Agency
supplied materials, and the impact of
the program.
Agency: Institute of Museum and
Library Services.
Title: Museums for All.
OMB Number: To Be Determined.
Frequency: 1.
Affected Public: The target population
is museums that choose to participate in
the Museums for All program.

minutes.
Estimated Total Annual Burden: 125
hours (that is 60 minutes per respondent
times 125 respondents equal 7,500
minutes or 125 hours).
Total Annualized capital/startup
costs: n/a.
