Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A).
DOL, as
part of continuing efforts to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies an opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing collections of information
before submitting them to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for final
approval. This program helps to ensure
that 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.
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 over 3 million at-risk young
people between the ages of 16 and 24 for
success in our nation’s workforce. With
121 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 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 manage and
operate 95 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. Two
centers are operated under

remaining 24 Job Corps centers, called
Civilian Conservation Centers, are
operated by the U.S. Department of
Agriculture Forest Service via an
interagency agreement. DOL has a direct
role in the operation of Job Corps, and
does not serve as a pass-through agency
for this program.
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–
0030.
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).

Section 303(a)(1) of the Social
Security Act (SSA) requires a state’s
unemployment insurance (UI) law to
include provision for ‘‘[s]uch methods
of administration . . . as are found by
the Secretary of Labor to be reasonably
calculated to insure full payment of
unemployment compensation when
due. . . .’’ Section 303(a)(5) of the SSA
further requires a state’s UI law to
include provision for ‘‘[e]xpenditure of
all money withdrawn from an
unemployment fund of such State, in
the payment of unemployment
compensation. . . .’’ Section 3304(a)(4)
of the Internal Revenue Code (IRC) of
1954 provides that ‘‘all money
withdrawn from the unemployment
fund of the State shall be used solely in
the payment of unemployment
compensation. . . .’’
ETA has interpreted these sections of
federal law in Section 7511, Part V, of
the Employment Security Manual to
require a state’s UI law to include
provisions for such methods of
administration as are, within reason,
calculated to: (1) Detect benefits paid
through error by the State Workforce
Agency (SWA) or through willful
misrepresentation or error by the
claimant or others; (2) deter claimants
from obtaining benefits through willful
misrepresentation; and (3) recover
benefits overpaid. ETA uses the
Overpayment Detection and Recovery
Activities report, referred to as the ETA
227, to determine whether SWAs meet
these requirements. Section 303(a)(6) of
