Comments

    A 60-day Notice requesting public comment was published in the 
Federal Register on October 17, 2018 at Vol. 83, No. 201, Pg. 52419-
52420. This comment period ended December 17, 2018. No public comments 
were received.
    Title of Collection: Employers of National Service Enrollment Form 
and Employers of National Service Annual Survey.
    OMB Control Number: 3045-0175. Type of Review: Renewal and addition 
of second instrument.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Any organization that seeks to be or 
is an Employer of National Service program, including businesses, 
nonprofits, institutions of higher education, school districts, state/
local governments, and federal agencies.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 1180.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 490.
    Abstract: This is a request to renew the Employers of National 
Service Enrollment Form and add an additional related instrument, the 
Employers of National Service Annual Survey. Organizations from all 
sectors either seeking to become or already established Employers of 
National Service will be filling out these forms, including businesses, 
nonprofits, institutions of higher education, school districts, state/
local governments, and federal agencies. The key purpose of the 
enrollment form is to document what the organization is committing to 
doing as an Employer of National Service and provide contact 
information to CNCS. The information gathered on the enrollment form 
will also allow CNCS to display the organization's information 
accurately online as a resource for job seekers. It will also enable 
CNCS to speak to the diversity within the program's membership, both 
for internal planning and external audience use. The purpose of the 
survey form is to track what actions an employer has taken in the past 
year, gather stories of success or impact, collect quantitative hiring 
data relating to AmeriCorps and Peace Corps alumni, and provide 
organizations with an opportunity to update their contact and location 
data. CNCS seeks to renew the current information collection. The 
revisions are intended to reflect feedback from those outside CNCS. The 
information collection will otherwise be used in the same manner as the 
existing application. CNCS also seeks to continue using the current 
application until the revised application is approved by OMB. The 
current application is due to expire on March 31, 2019.

    Dated: December 21, 2018.

Program Support Specialist.
