SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR
seeks approval under the PRA for
revisions to the Functional Affirmative
Action Programs Agreement Approval
Process information collection. The
regulations implementing Executive
Order 11246 permit Federal supply and
service contractors to develop
affirmative action programs (AAPs) that
are based on business functions or
business units rather than AAPs based
on establishments. See 41 CFR 60–
2.1(d)(4). Functional affirmative action
programs (FAAPs) are designed to
provide contractors with the option of
creating AAPs that better fit their
business needs. To develop and
implement a FAAP, a Federal contractor
must receive written approval from the
Director of the OFCCP. This ICR
addresses the collection of information
associated with the process for
obtaining, modifying, updating, and
renewing an agreement that allows a
contractor to develop and use a FAAP.

This information collection has been
classified as a revision because the
OFCCP seeks to amend the directive
that establishes policies and procedures
that a contractor must follow to
maintain a FAAP. In general, the
proposed revisions reorganize the
contents of the directive and provide
some minor, clarifying edits. Among
other revisions, the OFCCP proposes to
change the current requirement that
contractors certify every three years that
there have been no changes made to the
functional units, business structure, or
other circumstances that affect their
existing FAAP agreements. Under this
ICR, if approved, certification would
generally be required every five years.
Executive Order 11246 (30 FR 12319,
September 28, 1965) 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. The DOL
obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1250–0006. The DOL notes that
existing information collection
requirements submitted to the OMB
receive a month-to-month extension
while they undergo review. New
requirements would only take effect
upon OMB approval. For additional
substantive information about this ICR,
see the related notice published in the
Federal Register on September 11, 2018
(83 FR 45977).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within thirty (30) days of
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register. In order to help ensure
appropriate consideration, comments
should mention OMB Control Number
1250–0006. The OMB 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,
PO 00000

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.

fatalities, injuries, and illnesses. The
