It addresses multiple barriers to employment faced by at-risk youth throughout the United States. Through a network of 124 campuses nationwide, Job Corps offers a comprehensive array of career development services to prepare students for successful careers. Job Corps employs a holistic career development training approach which integrates the teaching of academic, career technical, employability skills and social competencies through a combination of classroom, practical, and work-based learning experiences to prepare students for stable, long-term, and high-paying jobs. In addition, Job Corps commits resources to provide job placement and career transition services to all graduates and students who have stayed with the program for more than 60 days, and to conduct placement follow-ups at 6 month and 12 months after initial placement. II. Review Focus The Department is particularly interested in comments which: • Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for an agency to properly performs its functions, including whether the information will have practical utility; • evaluate the agency’s accuracy in estimating 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 information collection on those who are to respond—including that obtained through appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic submissions of responses. III. Current Actions This submission requests comments on three primary and two secondary data collection instruments that collect follow-up data about individuals who are no longer actively participating in Job Corps. These youths either graduated from Job Corps or stayed in the program at least 60 days but left before completing graduation requirements (former enrollees). These data collection activities are conducted with the following groups of recent Job Corps participants: • Former enrollees who were placed in a job or school program; this group will be contacted 90 days after separation. • graduates who were placed in a job or school program; this group will be contacted 90 days after initial placement; • graduates who were placed in a job or school program; this group will be contacted 6 months after initial placement; • graduates who were placed in a job or school program; this group will be Number of respondents mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES Data collection activity Frequency contacted 12 months after initial placement. The data collection instrument for graduates 90 to 120 days after their initial placement is called Interim Checkpoint for Eligibility (ICFE). Administration of the ICFE facilitates the key data collection at 6 and 12 months. In addition, two brief questionnaires (one for employers and one for schools or training institutions) are used to collect re-verification data about initial placement for the subset of placed graduates and former enrollees who cannot be contacted directly. To maximize the comparability of the data collected from the different subgroups of students, the ICFE, the 90day follow-up for former enrollees, and the 6-month and 12-month follow-up sections of the data collection instruments use modules with identical sets of questions on the same topics. The questions are designed to obtain: • Data to re-verify the initial job or school placements of placed graduates and former enrollees (only in the instruments administered at 90 days and the ICFE) • information about employment experiences in the previous week • information about educational experiences in the previous week • summary information about the work, school, and job search activities of those who were neither working nor in school the previous week • information about satisfaction with the services provided by Job Corps Type of Review: extension without changes.

II. Discussion On May 25, 2010, PSEG submitted the ESP application via letter pursuant to Part 52 of Title 10 of the Code of Federal Regulations (10 CFR) (ADAMS Accession No. ML101480484). The location of the proposed ESP site is adjacent to the existing Salem and Hope Creek Nuclear Generating Stations on the east bank of the Delaware River in Lower Alloways Creek Township, Salem County, New Jersey. An ESP is a licensing option provided under the NRC’s regulations in 10 CFR part 52 that allows an applicant to obtain approval for a reactor site. The approval of the ESP indicates that there are no safety or environmental issues at the proposed site that would preclude the construction of a nuclear power plant with the characteristics identified in the plant parameter envelope. Because an ESP is only a site approval and does not authorize the construction or operation of a nuclear power plant, an applicant may obtain an ESP without specifying the design of the reactor(s) that it may separately apply to build and operate at the site. The ESP application and review process makes it possible to evaluate and resolve safety and environmental issues related to siting before the applicant makes a large commitment of resources. Granting an ESP would result in no effects to historic properties; the ESP review includes an analysis of potential adverse effects from construction and operation of a postulated plant to support a site suitability determination. Pursuant to 36 CFR 800.8, the NRC is using its National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) process for developing the ESP environmental impact statement (EIS) to facilitate consultation pursuant to Section 106 of the NHPA (54 U.S.C. 306108). The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) participated in the development of the ESP EIS as a cooperating agency, pursuant to NEPA, but is consulting separately under Section 106 of the NHPA for the activities that it regulates. On August 22, 2014, the NRC requested comment (79 FR 49820) on its draft EIS analyzing: (1) The impacts of constructing and operating a postulated nuclear plant at the proposed ESP site that is the subject of NRC review, and (2) impacts associated with a USACE permit action on a Department of the E:\FR\FM\04SEN1.SGM 04SEN1

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    Job Corps is the country's largest residential training program for 
at-risk youth ages 16 through 24. It addresses multiple barriers to 
employment faced by at-risk youth throughout the United States. Through 
a network of 124 campuses nationwide, Job Corps offers a comprehensive 
array of career development services to prepare students for successful 
careers. Job Corps employs a holistic career development training 
approach which integrates the teaching of academic, career technical, 
employability skills and social competencies through a combination of

Corps commits resources to provide job placement and career transition 
services to all graduates and students who have stayed with the program 
for more than 60 days, and to conduct placement follow-ups at 6 month 
and 12 months after initial placement.

II. Review Focus

    The Department is particularly interested in comments which:
     Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for an agency to properly performs its functions, including 
whether the information will have practical utility;
     evaluate the agency's accuracy in estimating 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 information collection on those who 
are to respond--including that obtained through appropriate automated, 
electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic 
submissions of responses.

III. Current Actions

    This submission requests comments on three primary and two 
secondary data collection instruments that collect follow-up data about 
individuals who are no longer actively participating in Job Corps. 
These youths either graduated from Job Corps or stayed in the program 
at least 60 days but left before completing graduation requirements 
(former enrollees). These data collection activities are conducted with 
the following groups of recent Job Corps participants:
     Former enrollees who were placed in a job or school 
program; this group will be contacted 90 days after separation.
     graduates who were placed in a job or school program; this 
group will be contacted 90 days after initial placement;
     graduates who were placed in a job or school program; this 
group will be contacted 6 months after initial placement;
     graduates who were placed in a job or school program; this 
group will be contacted 12 months after initial placement.
    The data collection instrument for graduates 90 to 120 days after 
their initial placement is called Interim Checkpoint for Eligibility 
(ICFE). Administration of the ICFE facilitates the key data collection 
at 6 and 12 months. In addition, two brief questionnaires (one for 
employers and one for schools or training institutions) are used to 
collect re-verification data about initial placement for the subset of

former enrollees, and the 6-month and 12-month follow-up sections of 
the data collection instruments use modules with identical sets of 
questions on the same topics.
    The questions are designed to obtain:
     Data to re-verify the initial job or school placements of 
placed graduates and former enrollees (only in the instruments 
administered at 90 days and the ICFE)
     information about employment experiences in the previous 
week
