Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D).
This ICR
seeks approval under the PRA for
revisions to the Occupational
Information Network (O*NET) Data
Collection Program. The ONET Data
Collection Program yields detailed
characteristics of occupations and skills
for over 900 occupations by obtaining
information from job incumbents and
occupational specialists on worker and
job characteristics to populate the
O*NET database that is used for a wide
range of purposes related to career
counseling and development,
curriculum design, human resources
functions, and workforce development
efforts. The data collection methodology
includes contacting businesses and
associations to gain their cooperation
and collecting information from
employees of cooperating businesses
and associations as well as occupational
specialists. This information collection
has been classified as a revision because
of an increase in the number of
establishment testing units to be
contacted each year. The ETA is also
proposing to clarify the text on the level
of education, to add questions related to
professional certifications and jobrelated apprenticeships in the
Knowledge Questionnaires and
Background Questionnaires, and to
revise items on disabilities to make
them identical to those used in the
American Community Survey in the
Background Questionnaires. The agency
has also made minor editorial changes
to year of birth questions in the
questionnaires and to cover materials
related to privacy and mailing
addresses. Wagner-Peyser Act section
15, as amended by Workforce
Innovation and Opportunity Act section
308, authorizes this information
collection. See 29 U.S.C. 49l.1.
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 that 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 1205–0421.
The current approval is scheduled to
expire on June 30, 2015; however, the
DOL notes that existing information
collection requirements submitted to the
OMB receive a month-to-month
extension while they undergo review.
New requirements would only take
effect upon OMB approval. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
November 26, 2014 (79 FR 70569).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES

agency’s estimate of the burden of the

This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Employee Retirement Income Security
Act (ERISA) Blackout Period Notice
information collection requirements
codified in regulations 26 CFR
2520.101–3. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of
2002 amended ERISA section 101 to
require a plan administrator to furnish
affected participants and beneficiaries of
individual account pension plans with
advance written notice of any blackout
period during which the right to direct
or diversify investments or obtain a loan
or distribution may be temporarily
suspended. ERISA sections 101(i) and
505 authorize this information
collection. See 29 U.S.C. 1021(i), 1135.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is

obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1210–0122.
OMB authorization for an ICR cannot
be for more than three (3) years without
renewal, and the current approval for
this collection is scheduled to expire on
June 30, 2015. The DOL seeks to extend
PRA authorization for this information
collection for three (3) more years,
without any change to existing
requirements. The DOL notes that
existing information collection
requirements submitted to the OMB
