comparability of program reports
submitted by states and grantees using
Federal funds are fundamental elements
of good public administration, and are
necessary tools for maintaining and
demonstrating system integrity. This
ICR includes several information
collection instruments—Program
Performance Report, WIOA Pay-forPerformance Report, Participant
Individual Record Layout, WIOA Data
Element Specifications, and Job
Openings Report. WIOA section 185
authorizes this information collection.
See 29 U.S.C. 3245.
This proposed 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 if the
collection of information does not
display a valid Control Number. See 5
CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. For
additional information, see the related
notices published in the Federal
Register on April 16, 2015 (80 FR
20573), and September 1, 2015 (80 FR
52798).
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 ICR Reference
Number 201604–1205–003. The OMB is
particularly interested in comments
that:
• 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;
• Evaluate 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,

This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Occupational Safety and Health State
Plans information collection.
Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 section 18 encourages States to
assume responsibility for the
development and enforcement of State
occupational safety and health
standards through the mechanism of an
approved State plan. Absent a plan
approved by the OSHA, a State is
preempted from asserting authority over
any occupational safety and health issue
with respect to which a Federal
standard has been promulgated. Section
18 establishes the basic criteria for State
plan approval; provides for the
discretionary exercise of concurrent
Federal enforcement jurisdiction for a
period of time following initial
approval; provides that State standards
and enforcement must be, and continue
to be, at least as effective as the Federal
program, including any change thereto;
and requires the OSHA to make a
continuing evaluation of the State plan
to take action to withdraw plan
approval should there be a failure to
substantially comply with any provision
of the State Plan. A State choosing to
operate an OSHA-approved plan must
provide information to document the
State program is at least as effective as
the Federal OSHA program. In order to
obtain and maintain State Plan
approval, a State must submit various
documents to the OSHA describing the
Plan program structure and operation,
including any modification thereto as it
