SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR
seeks approval under the PRA for
revisions to the Transmittal for
Unemployment Insurance Materials.
The Social Security Act (SSA) section
303(a)(6) requires as a condition of a
State receiving an administrative grant,
that State laws contains a provision for
the making of such reports, in such form
and containing such information, as the
Secretary of Labor may from time to
time require and compliance with such
provisions as the Secretary of Labor may
from time to time find necessary to
assure the correctness and verification
PO 00000
Frm 00095
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
45803
of such reports. Regulations 20 CFR
601.3, in part, implement this
requirement by requiring submission of
all relevant State materials, such as
statutes, executive and administrative
orders, legal opinions, rules,
regulations, interpretations, court
opinions, etc. In addition, the
Unemployment Compensation for
Federal Civilian Employees program
regulations at 20 CFR 609.1(d)(1) and
the Unemployment Compensation for
Ex-Service Members program
regulations at 20 CFR 614.1(d)(1) require
submission of certain documents to
ensure States properly administer these
programs. Trade Adjustment Assistance
(which includes Trade Readjustment
Allowances) program regulations
provide similar requirements at 20 CFR
617.52(c)(1). Form MA–8–7 is the
mechanism for implementing these
submittal requirements. Form MA–8–7
also provides the Secretary with
sufficient information to determine if (a)
Employers in a State qualify for tax
credits under the Federal
Unemployment Tax Act; (b) the State
meets the requirements for obtaining
administrative grants under SSA Title
III; and (c) the State is fulfilling its
obligations under Federal
unemployment compensation programs.
This information collection is a
revision, because the Short Time
Compensation (STC) Policies and
Review of State Self-Employment
Assistance (SEA) Policies were removed
as ETA is only seeking information on
state legislation and policies relating to
work search at this time. Social Security
Act of 1935 authorizes this information
collection. See 42 U.S.C. 503(a)(6).
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 the OMB,
under the PRA, approves it 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 1205–
0222. The current approval is scheduled
to expire on August 31, 2019; however,
the DOL notes that existing information
collection requirements submitted to the
OMB will receive a month-to-month
extension while they undergo review.
New requirements would only take
effect upon OMB approval. For

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR

revisions to the American Time Use
Survey. The ATUS is the Nation’s only

federally administered, continuous
survey on time use in the United States.
It measures, for example, time spent
with children, working, providing
eldercare, sleeping or doing leisure
activities. In the United States, several
existing Federal surveys collect income
and wage data for individuals and
families, and analysts often use such
measures of material prosperity as
proxies for quality of life. Time-use data
substantially augment these quality-oflife measures. The data also can be used
in conjunction with wage data to
evaluate the contribution of non-market
work to national economies. This
enables comparisons of production
between nations that have different
mixes of market and non-market
activities. The ATUS supports the
mission of the Bureau of Labor Statistics
by providing data on when, where, and
how much employed Americans work.
Individuals aged 15 and up are selected
from a nationally representative sample
of approximately 2,060 sample
households each month for the ATUS.
There are no changes to the ATUS
interview. However, BLS is requesting
approval for an incentive study during
the extension period: BLS is proposing
a study to test the effectiveness of using
$0, $5, and $10 cash incentives on
survey response. The study will test the
effectiveness of using cash incentives
instead of a prepaid debit card. It will
also test whether a $5 or $10 cash
incentive can boost survey response
among certain underrepresented
populations. 29 U.S.C. 1 and 13 U.S.C.
8 authorize 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 1220–0175. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on
December 31, 2019; however, 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
