SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
In applying for the Reintegration of
Ex-Offender-Adult grants, applicants
agree to submit participant data and
quarterly aggregate reports for
individuals who receive services
through RExO-Adult programs and their
partnerships with American Job Centers,
local Workforce Investment Boards,
employment providers, the criminal
justice system, and local housing
authorities. The reports include
aggregate data on demographic
characteristics, types of services
received, placements, outcomes, and
follow-up status. Specifically, they
summarize data on participants who
received employment and placement
services, housing assistance, mentoring,
and other services essential to
reintegrating ex-offenders through
RExO-Adult programs.

The Department requests an extension
of the currently approved information
collection to meet the reporting and
record-keeping requirements of the
Reintegration of Ex-Offenders-Adult
grants through an ETA-provided, Webbased Management Information System
(MIS). In addition to reporting
participant information and
performance-related outcomes, RExOAdult grantees demonstrate their ability
to establish effective partnerships with
the criminal justice system, local
Workforce Investment Boards, local
housing authorities, and other partner
agencies. They also document the cost
effectiveness of their projects. The MIS
reporting and record-keeping system
incorporates each of these aspects
necessary for program evaluation.
This information collection maintains
a reporting and record-keeping system
for a minimum level of information
collection that is necessary to comply
with Equal Opportunity requirements,
to hold RExO-Adult grantees
appropriately accountable for the
Federal funds they receive, including
common performance measures, and to
allow the Department to fulfill its
oversight and management
responsibilities.
II. Review Focus
The Department is particularly
interested in comments which:
• 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;
• Valuate 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 submissions
of responses.

Records Schedules; Availability and
Request for Comments
National Archives and Records
Administration (NARA).
ACTION: Notice of availability of
proposed records schedules; request for
comments.
AGENCY:
The National Archives and
Records Administration (NARA)
publishes notice at least once monthly
of certain Federal agency requests for
records disposition authority (records
schedules). Once approved by NARA,
records schedules provide mandatory
instructions on what happens to records
when no longer needed for current
Government business. They authorize
the preservation of records of
continuing value in the National
Archives of the United States and the
destruction, after a specified period, of
records lacking administrative, legal,
research, or other value. Notice is
published for records schedules in
which agencies propose to destroy
records not previously authorized for
disposal or reduce the retention period
of records already authorized for
disposal. NARA invites public

comments on such records schedules, as
required by 44 U.S.C. 3303a(a).
DATES: Requests for copies must be
received in writing on or before May 4,
2015. Once the appraisal of the records
is completed, NARA will send a copy of
the schedule. NARA staff usually
prepare appraisal memorandums that
contain additional information
concerning the records covered by a
proposed schedule. These, too, may be
requested and will be provided once the
appraisal is completed. Requesters will
be given 30 days to submit comments.
ADDRESSES: You may request a copy of
any records schedule identified in this
notice by contacting Records
Management Services (ACNR) using one
of the following means:
Mail: NARA (ACNR), 8601 Adelphi
Road, College Park, MD 20740–6001.
Email: request.schedule@nara.gov.
FAX: 301–837–3698.
Requesters must cite the control
number, which appears in parentheses
after the name of the agency which
submitted the schedule, and must
provide a mailing address. Those who
desire appraisal reports should so
indicate in their request.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Margaret Hawkins, Director, Records
Management Services (ACNR), National
Archives and Records Administration,
8601 Adelphi Road, College Park, MD
20740–6001. Telephone: 301–837–1799.
Email: request.schedule@nara.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Each year
Federal agencies create billions of
records on paper, film, magnetic tape,
and other media. To control this
accumulation, agency records managers
prepare schedules proposing retention
periods for records and submit these
schedules for NARA’s approval. These
schedules provide for the timely transfer
into the National Archives of
historically valuable records and
PO 00000
Frm 00075
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
authorize the disposal of all other
records after the agency no longer needs
them to conduct its business. Some
schedules are comprehensive and cover
all the records of an agency or one of its
major subdivisions. Most schedules,
however, cover records of only one
office or program or a few series of
records. Many of these update
previously approved schedules, and
some include records proposed as
permanent.
The schedules listed in this notice are
media neutral unless specified
otherwise. An item in a schedule is
media neutral when the disposition
instructions may be applied to records
regardless of the medium in which the
records are created and maintained.
Items included in schedules submitted
to NARA on or after December 17, 2007,
are media neutral unless the item is
limited to a specific medium. (See 36
CFR 1225.12(e).)
No Federal records are authorized for
destruction without the approval of the
Archivist of the United States. This
approval is granted only after a
thorough consideration of their
administrative use by the agency of
origin, the rights of the Government and
of private persons directly affected by
the Government’s activities, and
whether or not they have historical or
other value.
Besides identifying the Federal
agencies and any subdivisions
requesting disposition authority, this
public notice lists the organizational
unit(s) accumulating the records or
indicates agency-wide applicability in
the case of schedules that cover records
that may be accumulated throughout an
agency. This notice provides the control
number assigned to each schedule, the
total number of schedule items, and the
number of temporary items (the records
proposed for destruction). It also
includes a brief description of the
