ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: The Department of Labor
(DOL), Employment and Training
Administration (ETA) is soliciting
comments concerning a proposed
extension for the authority to conduct
the information collection request (ICR)
titled, ‘‘Reintegration of Ex-Offenders
Adult Reporting System.’’ This
comment request is part of continuing
Departmental efforts to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA).
DATES: Consideration will be given to all
written comments received by July 24,
2018.
ADDRESSES: A copy of this ICR with
applicable supporting documentation,
including a description of the likely
respondents, proposed frequency of
response, and estimated total burden,
may be obtained free by contacting
Derrick Williams by telephone at 202–
693–3931 (this is not a toll-free

Submit written comments about, or
requests for a copy of, this ICR by mail
or courier to the U.S. Department of
Labor, Division of Youth Services, Room

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Contact Derrick Williams by telephone
at 202–693–3931 (this is not a toll-free
number) or by email at
Williams.Derrick.D@dol.gov.
Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A).
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 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.
In applying for the Reentry
Employment Opportunities (REO) ExOffender-Adult grants, applicants agree
to submit participant data and quarterly
aggregate reports for individuals who
receive services through REO-Adult
programs. The reports include aggregate
PO 00000

data on demographic characteristics,
types of services received, placements,
outcomes, and follow-up status.
Specifically, they summarize data on
participants who received employment
and placement services, mentoring, and
other services essential to reintegrating
ex-offenders through REO-Adult
programs. The Department requests a
revision of the currently approved
information collection to meet the
reporting and record-keeping
requirements of the REO Ex-OffendersAdult grants through an ETA-provided,
Web-based Management Information
System (MIS). The Department also
requests an increase in the burden hours
and additional data items because DOL
is now awarding a larger number of
adult versus juvenile offender grants.
This information collection is
conducted under the authority of
Section 185(a)(2) of the Workforce
Innovation and Opportunity Act which
requires recipients of funds under Title
I to maintain such records and submit
such reports as the Secretary requires
regarding the performance of programs
and activities carried out under this
title. This information collection
maintains a reporting and recordkeeping system for a minimum level of
information collection that is necessary
to: comply with Equal Opportunity
requirements; hold REO-Adult grantees
appropriately accountable for the
Federal funds they receive, including
common performance measures; and
allow the Department to fulfill its
oversight and management
responsibilities.

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 control number 1205–
0455.
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.
