state agencies, tribal governments, local
governments, colleges and universities,
non-profit organizations, for-profit
organizations, and faith-based
organizations. The purpose of the
solicitation template is to provide a
framework to develop program-specific
announcements soliciting applications
for funding. A program solicitation
outlines the specifics of the funding
program; describes requirements for
eligibility; instructs an applicant on the
necessary components of an application
under a specific program (e.g., project
activities, project abstract, project
timeline, proposed budget, etc.);
outlines program evaluation and
performance measures; explains
selection criteria and the review
process; and provides registration dates,
deadlines, and instructions on how to
apply within the designated application
system.
The substantive revision to this
collection include three items: (1) The
OJP Budget Detail Worksheet; (2) the
Coordinated Tribal Assistance
Solicitation (CTAS) Tribal Narrative
Profile, Budget Detail Worksheet and
Demographic Form; and (3) the
Financial Management and System of
Internal Controls Questionnaire (FCQ).
The now mandatory OJP Budget
Detail Worksheet (BDW) will be
streamlined and automated with the
intent of reducing the burden on public
submissions. The current PDF format
will be converted to Excel, providing
ease of entry and more accurate detail
of budget information. Additionally, the
BDW has taken the ‘‘consultant/
contracts’’ section and broken the
details out into two separate sections,
‘‘subrecipient/subgrants’’ and
‘‘procurement contracts’’ to better
categorize the details of proposed
consultants. Updated and clearer
guidance will also be added to better
explain how to complete the BDW and
the level of detail required in each
section.
The Coordinated Tribal Assistance
Solicitation (CTAS) Tribal Community
and Justice Profile is designed to allow
the tribe to describe its community
strengths, resources, challenges, and
needs. The applicant may enter as much
or as little text as needed to fully
describe the community. The CTAS
BDW and Demographics Form will be
updated to align with the BDW
streamlining and automation efforts. In
addition to those revisions, the
Demographics section of the CTAS BDW
is designed to capture the unique
characteristics of each tribe in order to
paint a more detailed picture of each
tribe’s strengths and challenges. It
requests applicants to provide

Jkt 241001
information regarding tribe information;
Uniform Crime Report data; law
enforcement information; and facilities,
capacities, and capabilities information.
The revised FCQ will include five
new questions: Three which are
required by legislation regarding
nonprofit status; one which is simply a
clarification of an existing approved
question regarding subawards and
procurement contracts; and one
regarding executive compensation that
is also required by legislation and was
already part of the approved OJP
solicitation template but was requiring a
separate email submission to OJP.
Adding it to the FCQ will save the
applicant time and effort.
The primary respondents for all three
revisions are the same, as listed above.
While use of the CTAS BDW and
Demographics form is not mandatory, it
is required that all applicants ensure
that all budget and demographic
information requested in the form is
included in whichever format the
applicant choses to use. OJP intends to
require the same with the OJP BDW.
The FCQ is also required of all
application submissions that do not
already have an updated FCQ on file
within the last 3 years.
5. An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: It is estimated that information
will be collected annually from
approximately 10,000 applicants.
Annual cost to the respondents is based
on the number of hours involved in
preparing and submitting a complete
application package. Mandatory
requirements for an application under
the OJP Standard Solicitation Template
include a program narrative; budget
details and narrative, via the OJP
standard BDW; Applicant Disclosure of
Pending Applications; Applicant
Disclosure of High Risk Status; and the
FCQ. With the exception of the Tribal
Narrative Profile and added
Demographic form, the mandatory
requirements for an application under
the CTAS Solicitation Template are the
same as those for OJP. Optional
requirements can be made mandatory
depending on the type of program to
include, but not limited to: Project
abstract, indirect cost rate agreement,
tribal authorizing resolution, timelines,
logic models, memoranda of
understanding, letters of support,
resumes, and research and evaluation
independence and integrity. Public
reporting burden for this collection of
information is estimated at up to 32
hours per application. The 32-hour
estimate is based on the amount of time
to prepare a research and evaluation
PO 00000
Frm 00051
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
27725
proposal, one of the most time intensive
types of application solicited by OJP.
The estimate of burden hours is based
on OJP’s prior experience with the
research application submission
process.
6. An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The estimated public burden
associated with this application is
320,000 hours.

continuing Departmental efforts to
reduce paperwork and respondent
burden in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA). This collection has been
developed as part of a Federal
Government-wide effort to streamline
the process for seeking feedback from
the public on service delivery.
DATES: Consideration will be given to all
written comments received by August
15, 2017.

Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A).
The DOL,
as part of continuing efforts to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies an opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing collections of information
before submitting them to the OMB for
final approval. This program helps to
ensure requested data can be provided
in the desired format, reporting burden
(time and financial resources) is
minimized, collection instruments are
clearly understood, and the impact of
collection requirements can be properly
assessed.
This information collection activity
provides a means to garner qualitative
customer and stakeholder feedback in
an efficient, timely manner, in
accordance with the Administration’s
commitment to improve service
delivery. By, ‘‘qualitative feedback,’’ the
DOL means information that provides
useful insights on perceptions and
opinions, but does not entail statistical
surveys that yield quantitative results
that can be generalized to the
population of study. This feedback will
provide insights into customer or
stakeholder perceptions, experiences,
and expectations; provide an early
warning of issues with service; or focus
attention on areas where
communication, training, or changes in
operations might improve delivery of
products or services. These collections
will allow for ongoing, collaborative,
and actionable communications
between the DOL and its customers and
stakeholders. It will also allow feedback
to contribute directly to the
improvement of program management.
The solicitation of feedback will target
areas such as timeliness,
appropriateness, accuracy of
information, courtesy, efficiency of
service delivery, and resolution of
issues with service delivery. Responses

will be assessed to plan and inform
efforts to improve or maintain the
quality of service offered to the public.
If this information were not collected,
vital feedback from customers and
stakeholders on DOL services would be
unavailable.
The DOL will only submit a collection
for approval under this generic
clearance if it meets the following
conditions:
• The collection is voluntary;
• The collection is low-burden for
respondents (based on considerations of
total burden hours, total number of
respondents, or burden-hours per
respondent) and is low-cost for both the
respondents and the Federal
Government;
• The collection is non-controversial
and does not raise issues of concern to
other Federal agencies;
• The collection is targeted to the
solicitation of opinions from
respondents who have experience with
the program or may have experience
with the program in the near future;
• Personally identifiable information
is collected only to the extent necessary
and is not retained;
• Information gathered will be used
only internally for general service
improvement and program management
purposes and is not intended for release
outside of the agency;
• Information gathered will not be
used for the purpose of substantially
informing influential policy decisions;
and
• Information gathered will yield
qualitative information; the collection
will not be designed or be expected to
yield statistically reliable results or be
used as though the results are
generalizable to the population of study.
Feedback collected under this generic
clearance provides useful information,
but it does not yield data that can be
generalized to the overall population.
This type of generic clearance for
qualitative information will not be used
for quantitative information collections
that are designed to yield reliably
actionable results, such as monitoring
trends over time or documenting
program performance. Such data uses
would require more rigorous designs
that address: The target population to
which generalizations would be made,
the sampling frame, the sample design
(including stratification and clustering),
the precision requirements or power
calculations that would justify the
proposed sample size, the expected
response rate, methods for assessing
potential non-response bias, the
protocols for data collection, and any
testing procedures that were or would
be undertaken prior to fielding the
PO 00000

study. Depending on the degree of
influence the results are likely to have,
such collections could still be eligible
for submission for other generic
mechanisms that are designed to yield
quantitative results. As a general matter,
information collections will not result
in any new system of records containing
privacy information and will not ask
questions of a sensitive nature, such as
sexual behavior and attitudes, religious
beliefs, and other matters that are
commonly considered private.
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 1225–0088.
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
August 31, 2017. The DOL seeks to
extend PRA authorization for this
information collection for three (3) more
years, without any change to existing
requirements.
Interested parties are encouraged to
provide comments to the contact shown
in the ADDRESSES section. Comments
must be written to receive
consideration, and they will be
summarized and included in the request
for OMB approval of the final ICR. In
order to help ensure appropriate
consideration, comments should
mention OMB Control Number 1225–
0088.
Submitted comments will also be a
matter of public record for this ICR and
posted on the Internet, without
redaction. The DOL encourages
commenters not to include personally
identifiable information, confidential
business data, or other sensitive
statements/information in any
comments.
The DOL 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;
E:\FR\FM\16JNN1.SGM
16JNN1
Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 115 / Friday, June 16, 2017 / Notices
• 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Section 103(h) of the Federal Mine
Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine
Act), 30 U.S.C. 813(h), authorizes
MSHA to collect information necessary
to carry out its duty in protecting the
safety and health of miners. Further,
Section 101(a) of the Mine Act, 30
U.S.C. 811, authorizes the Secretary of
Labor to develop, promulgate, and
revise as may be appropriate, improved
mandatory health or safety standards for
the protection of life and prevention of
injuries in coal or other mines.
The reporting and recordkeeping
provisions in 30 CFR part 50,
Notification, Investigation, Reports and
Records of Accidents, Injuries and
PO 00000
Frm 00053
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
27727
Illnesses, Employment and Coal
Production in Mines, are essential
elements in MSHA’s Congressional
mandate to reduce work-related injuries
and illnesses among the nation’s miners.
Section 50.10 requires mine operators
and independent contractors to
immediately notify MSHA in the event
of an accident. This immediate
notification is critical to MSHA’s timely
investigation and assessment of the
cause of the accident.
Section 50.11 requires that the mine
operator or independent contractor
investigate each accident and
occupational injury and prepare a
report. The mine operator or
independent contractor may not use
MSHA Form 7000–1 as the investigation
report, except if the operator or
contractor employs fewer than 20
miners and the injury is not related to
an accident.
Section 50.20 requires mine operators
and independent contractors to report
each accident, injury, and illness to
MSHA on Form 7000–1 within 10
working days after an accident or injury
has occurred or an occupational illness
has been diagnosed. The use of MSHA
Form 7000–1 provides for uniform
information gathering across the mining
industry.
Section 50.30 requires that all mine
operators and independent contractors
working on mine property report
employment to MSHA quarterly on
Form 7000–2, and that coal mine
operators and independent contractors
also report coal production.
Accident, injury, and illness data,
when correlated with employment and
production data, provide information
that allows MSHA to improve its safety
and health enforcement programs, focus
its education and training efforts, and
establish priorities for its technical
assistance activities in mine safety and
health. Maintaining a current database
allows MSHA to identify and direct
increased attention to those mines,
industry segments, and geographical
areas where hazardous trends are
developing. This could not be done
effectively using historical data. The
information collected under part 50 is
the most comprehensive and reliable
occupational data available concerning
the mining industry.
Section 103(d) of the Mine Act
mandates that each accident be
investigated by the operator to
determine the cause and means of
preventing a recurrence. Records of
such accidents and investigations must
be kept and made available to the
Secretary or his authorized
representative and the appropriate State
agency. Section 103(h) requires
