Download as PDF Federal Register / Vol. 81, No. 40 / Tuesday, March 1, 2016 / Notices Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). This ICR seeks approval under the PRA for revisions to the Reemployment Services and Eligibility Assessment (RESA) Program information collection. Social Security Act section 303(a)(6) authorizes the DOL to prescribe standard definitions, methods and procedures, and reporting requirements for the collection of information on benefit payment accuracy and the reemployment of unemployment insurance benefit recipients to ensure the verification of these data. See 42 U.S.C. 503(a)(6). The DOL uses information collected on Forms ETA– 9128, ETA–9128X, ETA–9129, and ETA–9129X to evaluate State performance in terms of service delivery and to report on the RESAs, including the number of scheduled in-person reemployment and eligibility assessments, the number of individuals who failed to appear for scheduled assessments, actions taken as a result of individuals not appearing for an assessment (e.g., benefits termination), results of assessments (e.g., referral to reemployment services, found in compliance with program requirements), estimated savings resulting from cessation of benefits, and estimated savings as a result of accelerated reemployment. Information collected on Forms ETA–9128X and ETA–9129X is required by the Middle Class Tax Relief and Job Creation Act of 2012, Public Law 112–96. This information collection has been classified as a revision, because of proposed changes that would have the population of claimants who are most likely to exhaust their benefits be reported on Forms ETA–9128 and ETA– 9129 and that ex-servicemember claimants be reported on Forms ETA– 9128X and ETA–9126X. In addition, the DOL proposes to eliminate comparison group information on Form ETA–9129; only information about the individuals selected for treatment will be collected. 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 asabaliauskas on DSK5VPTVN1PROD with NOTICES SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:18 Feb 29, 2016 Jkt 238001 information collection under Control Number 1205–0456. The current approval is scheduled to expire on February 29, 2016; 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 July 7, 2015 (80 FR 38748). Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in the ADDRESSES section within thirty (30) days of publication of this notice in the Federal Register. In order to help ensure appropriate consideration, comments should mention OMB Control Number 1205–0456.
