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.
Section 241 of the Trade Act of 1974,
as amended (Act), provides that: ‘‘the
Secretary shall from time to time certify
to the Secretary of the Treasury for
payment to each cooperating state the
sums necessary to enable such State as
agents of the United States to make
payments provided for by this chapter.’’
As such, states may request reserve
funds to cover the costs of training, job
search allowances and relocation
allowances, employment and case
management services, and state
administration of these benefits before
DOL issues the final distribution of state
allocations. Reserve funds are
distributed to states in accordance with
20 CFR 618.920 on an as-needed basis
in response to requests to provide
monies to those states that experience
large, unexpected layoffs, or otherwise
have financial needs that are not met by
their initial allocation. These funds are
requested using the Form ETA–9117.
Section 236(a)(2)(D) of the Trade Act of
1974, as amended, authorizes this
information collection.
The current approved version of the
collection is based on amendments
made to the Act through the Trade
Reform Act of 2002 (Pub. L. 107–210).
Since that time, there have been three
additional major amendments to the
Act, most recently through the Trade
Adjustment Assistance Reauthorization
Act of 2015 (Pub. L. 114–27). One of the
major changes authorized funding for
the provision of employment and case
management services under Section 235
of the Act. The current collection does
not take into account this authorized
expenditure category. The revised
collection will substitute information
currently required on expenditures and
obligations of funds for the job search
allowances and relocation allowances
under Section 237 and 238 of the Act,
respectively, for information on
expenditures and obligations under the
Section 235 of the Act. The Department
has also refined the layout of the form
for clarity. The change will not affect
the burden of this collection, and there
is no additional cost to respondents.
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 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–
0275.
Submitted comments will also be a
matter of public record for this ICR and
posted on the internet, without
redaction. DOL encourages commenters
not to include personally identifiable
information, confidential business data,
or other sensitive statements/
information in any comments.
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).

In June 2016, OMB approved the
Information Collection Request (ICR),
OMB control number 1205–0001, that
allows the Department of Labor and
Department of Education (the
Departments) to collect information
from States pertaining to work
applications and job orders and their
retention of that data. OMB granted
approval for the ICR through September
of 2019. 29 U.S.C. 49 (The WagnerPeyser Act) 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
