Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). This ICR seeks to maintain PRA authority for information collection activities related to Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (PTE) 1985–68, which permits an employee benefit plan to invest in an employer’s customer notes under circumstances the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) and Internal Revenue Code of 1986 would otherwise prohibit. More specifically, this PTE describes the conditions under which a plan may acquire customer notes accepted by an employer of employees covered by the plan in the ordinary course of the employer’s business activity and, thus, be exempt from the prohibited transaction restrictions; provided, the exemption conditions are met. The PTE covers sales as well as contributions of customer notes by an employer to its plan. The customer notes must have been accepted by the employer in its primary business activity as the seller of tangible personal property that is being financed by the notes, so that the exemption does not apply to notes of an employer’s affiliate. The PTE requires a plan to maintain all necessary records pertaining to the affected transactions for a period of six years and to make those records available to certain designed persons upon request. ERISA section 408(a) authorizes this information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 1108(a). 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 mstockstill on DSK3G9T082PROD with NOTICES SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:35 Feb 09, 2017 Jkt 241001 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 1210–0094. 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 February 28, 2017. 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 receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review. For additional substantive information about this ICR, see the related notice published in the Federal Register on October 28, 2016 (81 FR 75157). 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 1210–0094. 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, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses.

The NLSY97 includes respondents who were born from 1980 through 1984 and lived in the United States when the survey began in 1997. The primary objective of the survey is to study the transition from full-time schooling to the establishment of careers and families. The longitudinal focus of the survey requires information to be collected about the same individuals over many years in order to trace their education, training, work experience, fertility, income, and program participation. Research based on the NLSY97 contributes to the formation of national policy in the areas of education, training, employment programs, and school-to-work transitions. This information collection has been classified as a revision, because the NLSY97 will transition from interviews being conducted primarily in-person to being conducted primarily by telephone. The move to predominantly telephone interviewing results in slightly longer timings, because the interviewer will administer components that were previously selfadministered by respondents. The change in the data collection mode has also resulted in edits to the questionnaire in order to adapt the Round 18 instrument for predominantly telephone administration. The BLS Authorizing Statue authorizes this information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 1, 2. This information collection is subject to the PRA.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks approval under the PRA for
revisions to the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth 1997 (NLSY97)
information collection. The NLSY97 includes respondents who were born
from 1980 through 1984 and lived in the United States when the survey
began in 1997. The primary objective of the survey is to study the
transition from full-time schooling to the establishment of careers and
families. The longitudinal focus of the survey requires information to
be collected about the same individuals over many years in order to
trace their education, training, work experience, fertility, income,
and program participation. Research based on the NLSY97 contributes to
the formation of national policy in the areas of education, training,
employment programs, and school-to-work transitions. This information
collection has been classified as a revision, because the NLSY97 will
transition from interviews being conducted primarily in-person to being
conducted primarily by telephone. The move to predominantly telephone
interviewing results in slightly longer timings, because the
interviewer will administer components that were previously self-
administered by respondents. The change in the data collection mode has
also resulted in edits to the questionnaire in order to adapt the Round
18 instrument for predominantly telephone administration. The BLS
Authorizing Statue authorizes this information collection. See 29
U.S.C. 1, 2.
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 1220-0157. The current approval is scheduled to
expire on May 31, 2017; 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 August 19, 2016 (81 FR 55485).
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 1220-0157.
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, e.g., permitting
