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.
The Deficit Reduction Act of 1984
(DEFRA) established an Income and
Eligibility Verification System (IEVS) for
the exchange of information among state
agencies administering specific
programs. The programs include
Temporary Assistance for Needy
Families, Medicaid, Food Stamps,
Supplemental Security Income,
Unemployment Compensation, and any
state program approved under Titles I,
X, XIV, or XVI of the Social Security
Act. Under the DEFRA, programs
participating must exchange
information to the extent that it is useful
and productive in verifying eligibility
and benefit amounts to assist the child
support program and the Secretary of
Health and Human Services in verifying
eligibility and benefit amounts under
Titles II and XVI of the Social Security
Act.
On September 27, 2006, ETA issued a
final rule regarding the Confidentiality
and Disclosure of State Unemployment
Compensation Information. This rule
supports and expands upon the
requirements of the DEFRA and
subsequent regulatory changes. The
DEFRA 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 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–
0238.
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).

Job Corps is the nation’s largest
residential, educational, and career
technical training program for young
Americans. The Economic Opportunity
Act established Job Corps in 1964 and
it currently operates under the authority
of the Workforce Innovation and
Opportunity Act (WIOA) of 2014. For
over 55 years, Job Corps has helped
prepare more than 3 million at-risk
young people between the ages of 16
and 24 for success in our nation’s
workforce. With 123 centers in 50 states,
Puerto Rico, and the District of
Columbia, Job Corps assists students
across the nation in attaining academic
credentials, including High School
Diplomas (HSD) and/or High School
Equivalency (HSE), and career technical
training credentials, including industryrecognized certifications, state
licensures, and pre-apprenticeship
credentials. Job Corps also provides
placement services to qualified students
after separation.
Job Corps is a national program
administered by DOL through the Office
of Job Corps and six regional offices.
DOL awards and administers contracts
for the recruiting and screening of new
students, center operations, and the
placement and transitional support of
graduates and former enrollees. Large
and small corporations and nonprofit
organizations manage and operate 98
Job Corps centers under contractual
agreements with DOL. These contract
center operators are selected through a
competitive procurement process that
evaluates potential operators’ technical
expertise, proposed costs, past
performance, and other factors, in
accordance with the Competition in
Contracting Act and the Federal
Acquisition Regulations. The U.S.
Department of Agriculture Forest
Service (USDA FS) operates the
remaining 25 Job Corps centers; called
Civilian Conservation Centers, via an
interagency agreement with DOL. DOL
has a direct role in the operation of Job
Corps, and does not serve as a passthrough agency for this program. The
Workforce Innovation Opportunity Act
(WIOA), Section 116(b)(2)(A)(i), Section
159(c)(4) and Section 156(a) authorizes
this information collection.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
