Overview of This Information
Collection
(1) Type of Information Collection:
Extension of a currently approved
collection.
(2) Title of the Form/Collection: SemiAnnual Progress Report for Grantees of
the Legal Assistance for Victims Grant
Program.
(3) Agency form number, if any, and
the applicable component of the
Department of Justice sponsoring the
collection: Form Number: 1122–0007.
U.S. Department of Justice, Office on

(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract: The affected public includes
the approximately 200 grantees of the
Legal Assistance for Victims Grant
Program (LAV Program) whose
eligibility is determined by statute. In
1998, Congress appropriated funding to
provide civil legal assistance to
domestic violence victims through a setaside under the Grants to Combat
Violence Against Women, Public Law
105–277. In the Violence Against
Women Act of 2000 and again in 2005,
Congress statutorily authorized the LAV
Program. 34 U.S.C. 20121. The LAV
VerDate Sep<11>2014

Jkt 244001
Program is intended to increase the
availability of legal assistance necessary
to provide effective aid to victims of
domestic violence, stalking, or sexual
assault who are seeking relief in legal
matters arising as a consequence of that
abuse or violence. The LAV Program
awards grants to law school legal
clinics, legal aid or legal services
programs, domestic violence victims’
shelters, bar associations, sexual assault
programs, private nonprofit entities, and
Indian tribal governments. These grants
are for providing direct legal services to
victims of domestic violence, sexual
assault, and stalking in matters arising
from the abuse or violence and for
providing enhanced training for lawyers
representing these victims. The goal of
the Program is to develop innovative,
collaborative projects that provide
quality representation to victims of
domestic violence, sexual assault, and
stalking.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond/reply: It is estimated that it will
take the approximately 200 respondents
(LAV Program grantees) approximately
one hour to complete a semi-annual
progress report. The semi-annual
progress report is divided into sections
that pertain to the different types of
activities that grantees may engage in
and the different types of grantees that
receive funds. An LAV Program grantee
will only be required to complete the
sections of the form that pertain to its
own specific activities.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The total annual hour burden
to complete the data collection forms is
400 hours, that is 200 grantees
completing a form twice a year with an
estimated completion time for the form
being one hour.

Notice of Lodging of Proposed
Consent Decree Under the Clean Air
Act, CERCLA and EPCRA
On January 29, 2018, the Department
of Justice lodged a proposed Consent
Decree with the United States District
Court for the Eastern District of
California in the lawsuit entitled United
States v. Gibson Wine Co., Civil Action
No. 1:15–cv–01900–AWI–SKO.
This case involves claims for alleged
violations of Sections 112(r)(1) and
112(r)(7) of the Clean Air Act (‘‘CAA’’),
42 U.S.C. 7412(r)(1), (7), Section 103 of
the Comprehensive Environmental
Response, Compensation and Liability
Act, 42 U.S.C. 9603 (‘‘CERCLA’’), and
Section 304 of the Emergency Planning
and Community Right-To-Know Act, 42
U.S.C. 11004 (‘‘EPCRA’’), with respect
to Gibson’s winemaking facility
(‘‘Facility’’) located in Sanger,
California. The complaint sought
injunctive relief and civil penalties
stemming from the 2012 accidental
release of anhydrous ammonia from the
Facility’s refrigeration system that
resulted in the death of a worker. The
settlement involves a civil penalty
payment of $330,000, a reconfiguration
of portions of the refrigeration process
to reduce the risk of worker exposure in
the event of an ammonia release, an
upgrade to the refrigeration system from
manual controls to a centralized
computer control system programmed
with automated warnings and shutdowns in the event of a release, and
other injunctive relief geared towards
reducing the risk of further releases at
the Facility.
The publication of this notice opens
a period for public comment on the
Consent Decree. Comments should be

General, Environment and Natural
Resources Division, and should refer to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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 Office of
Management and Budget (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.
ETA requires grantees to submit
Quarterly Narrative Progress Reports
with a narrative summary of the
capacity building progress as identified
by the grantee in their project work
plan. Every fourth quarter, grantees
submit an Annual Performance Report
with standardized outcome measures
that will include aggregate data for
program participants for the following
ten outcome measures: Unique
participants served/enrolled; total
number of participants who have
completed a grant-funded program of
study; total number still retained in
their programs of study; total number
retained in other education programs;
total number of credit hours completed;
total number of earned credentials; total
number pursuing further education after
program of study completion; total
number employed after program of
study completion; total number retained
in employment after program of study
completion; and the total number of
those employed at enrollment who
receive a wage increase post-enrollment.
These reports help ETA gauge the
effects of the TAACCCT grants, respond
to inquiries about the progress and
successes of the TAACCCT grants from
Congress and other stakeholders,
identify grantees that could serve as
useful models, target technical
assistance appropriately, and provide
data for the national evaluation of the
TAACCCT grants. ETA is seeking an
extension for the collection of the final
Annual Performance Report and the
final Quarterly Narrative Progress
Report from the fourth and final round
of grants. Section 1872 of the Trade and

5) (19 U.S.C 2372a), as amended by the
Health Care and Education
Reconciliation Act of 2010, Public Law
111–152, authorizes this information
collection.
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.
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 1205–0489.
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;
• 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.
