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;
—Evaluate whether and if so how the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected can be
enhanced; 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

permitting electronic submission of
responses.
Overview of this information
collection:
(1) Type of Information Collection:
Extension without change of a currently
approved collection.
(2) The Title of the Form/Collection:
Inventories: Licensed Explosives
Importers, Manufacturers, Dealers, and
Permittees.
(3) The agency form number, if any,
and the applicable component of the
Department sponsoring the collection:
Form number: None.
Component: Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, U.S.
Department of Justice.
(4) Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract:
Primary: Business or other for-profit.
Other: None.
Abstract: The information collection
entitled Inventories: Licensed
Explosives Importers, Manufacturers,
Dealers, and Permittees, requires that
persons engaged in the explosives
industry maintain explosive material
inventories. The collected information
is used by the government to develop
audit trails during the course of a
compliance inspection or criminal
investigation.
(5) An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: An estimated 9,433
respondents will respond to this
collection annually, and it will take
each respondent approximately 2 hours
to provide their responses.
(6) An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: The estimated annual public
burden associated with this collection is
18, 866 hours, which is equal to 9,433
(# of responses) * 1 (# of responses per
respondent) * 2 (total time in hours to
respond to this IC).

Jkt 250001
(7) An Explanation of the Change in
Estimates: The adjustment associated
with this collection is a decrease in the
number of respondents by 483 and a
decrease in the total burden hours by
8,950, since the last renewal in 2017.
The recalculated burden hours for this
collection corresponds with the fact that
each respondent responds only once,
and now take 2 hours, instead of 1 hour
to complete their responses.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 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 three 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.

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
demonstration grant arrangements. The
U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest
Service via an interagency agreement
operates the remaining 24 Job Corps
centers, called Civilian Conservation
Centers. 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 cannot
conduct or sponsor a collection of
information, and the public is generally
not required to respond to an
information collection, unless 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.
Interested parties are encouraged to
provide comments to the contact shown
