measures outlined for Reserve Zone 6 in
the amended HCP.
Under Alternative 3, the preferred
alternative, the UDOT Application
Alignment, the BLM would issue a
ROW grant to UDOT across the Red
Cliffs NCA for the Northern Corridor for
the alignment included in UDOT’s ROW
application. The Red Cliffs NCA RMP
would be amended to allow for the
ROW and consider a utility corridor
along the same route. The ITP would be
issued subject to the conservation
measures in the amended HCP. The St.
George Field Office RMP would be
amended to support the conservation
measures outlined for Reserve Zone 6 in
the revised HCP.
Under Alternative 4, the Southern
Alignment, the BLM would issue a
ROW grant to UDOT across the NCA for
the Northern Corridor on the Southern
Alignment. Under this alternative, the
Northern Corridor would more closely
follow the southern border of the NCA.
The Red Cliffs NCA RMP would be
amended to allow for the ROW and to
consider a utility corridor along the
same route. The ITP would be issued
subject to the conservation measures in
the amended HCP. The St. George Field
Office RMP would be amended to
support the conservation measures
outlined for Reserve Zone 6 in the
revised HCP.
Under Alternative 5, the Red Hills
Parkway Expressway Alignment, the
BLM would grant necessary ROW
amendments to the existing ROW for the
Red Hills Parkway to convert Red Hills
Parkway into a grade-separate
expressway between Highland Drive
and Bluff Street. The ITP would be
issued subject to the conservation
measures in the amended HCP, but the
changed circumstance for the Northern
Corridor and associated conservation
measures would not be implemented.
The Red Cliffs NCA and the St. George
Field Office RMPs would not be
amended because Reserve Zone 6 would
not be needed to mitigate for impacts to
desert tortoises.
Under Alternative 6, the St. George
Boulevard/100 South One-Way Couplet,
the BLM would deny UDOT’s
application for a ROW across the Red
Cliffs NCA for the Northern Corridor.
Rather, this alternative analyzes a
scenario where the City of St. George
would convert St. George Boulevard and
100 South to one-way streets. If the City
implemented Alternative 6, the two
roadways would be converted between
I–15 and Bluff Street and the existing
interchange with I–15 at St. George
Boulevard would be reconfigured and
combined with a new interchange at 100
South to provide a split interchange

between these two roadways connected
by one-way ramps. The ITP would be
issued subject to the conservation
measures in the amended HCP, but the
changed circumstance for the Northern
Corridor and associated conservation
measures would not be implemented.
The Red Cliffs NCA RMP and the St.
George Field Office RMP would not be
amended.
The BLM and FWS have identified
Alternative 3 as the agencies’ preferred
ROW alignment and ITP issuance
alternative, with Alternative B
identified as the Proposed Amendments
to the Red Cliffs NCA and St. George
Field Office RMPs. Identification of
these alternatives, however, does not
represent a final agency decision.
Authority: Consistent with 40 CFR 1506.13
(2020), this Notice and the EIS are issued
under previous NEPA regulations: 40 CFR
1502.9; 40 CFR 1506.6; 40 CFR 1506.10; 43
CFR 46.435; and 43 CFR 1610.2. The BLM
also provides this Notice under 43 CFR
8364.1 and 16 U.S.C. 7913. The FWS also
provides this Notice under section 10(c) of
the ESA (16 U.S.C. 1531 et seq.) and its
implementing regulations for ITPs (50 CFR
17.22).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The BLS
seeks Office of Management and Budget
approval to conduct interim supplement
interviews between rounds 19 and 20 of
the NLSY97. Respondents of the
NLSY97 will undergo an interview of
approximately 12 minutes on average,
during which they will answer
questions about labor market
experiences, health, and income. The
interim supplemental survey will be a
conducted by internet and by telephone.
We anticipate that approximately onethird of interviews will be selfadministered by internet, with the
remaining interviews being intervieweradministered by telephone. The BLS
plans to record randomly selected
segments of the interviews collected by
telephone. Recording interviews helps
the BLS and its contractors to ensure
that the interviews actually took place
and interviewers are reading the
questions exactly as worded and
entering the responses properly.
Recording also helps to identify parts of
the interview that might be causing
problems or misunderstanding for
interviewers or respondents. Each
respondent will be informed that the
interview may be recorded for quality
control, testing, and training purposes.
If the respondent objects to the
recording of the interview, the
interviewer will confirm to the
respondent that the interview will not
be recorded and then proceed with the
interview. The interim supplemental
survey will consist of approximately 35
questions. Similar questions have
appeared in previous rounds of the
NLSY97, the Current Population

Survey, or the Census Household Pulse
survey. The content covers household
composition, current employment for
the respondent and spouse/partner,
changes in employment/earnings during
the past 12 months due to the
coronavirus pandemic, time spent
teaching children under age 18, health,
health insurance, having contracted the
coronavirus, medical care deferred due
to the coronavirus pandemic, mental
health, income, and earnings. During
the fielding period for the interim
supplemental interviews, no more than
2 percent of respondents will be asked
to participate in a brief validation
interview a few weeks after the initial
interview. The purpose of the validation
interview is to verify that the initial
interview took place as the interviewer
reported and to assess the data quality
of selected questionnaire items. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
July 31, 2020 (85 FR 46187).
This information collection is subject

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Current Employment Statistics (CES)
program provides current monthly
statistics on employment, hours, and
earnings, by industry and geography.
CES estimates are among the most
visible and widely-used Principal
Federal Economic Indicators (PFEIs).
CES data are also among the timeliest of
the PFEIs, with their release each month
by the BLS in the Employment
Situation, typically on the first Friday of
SUMMARY:

Sfmt 4703
each month. The statistics are
fundamental inputs in economic
decision processes at all levels of
government, private enterprise, and
organized labor.
The CES monthly estimates of
employment, hours, and earnings are
based on a sample of U.S.
nonagricultural establishments.
Information is derived from
approximately 295,000 reports (from a
sample of 150,000 employers with State
Unemployment Insurance (UI) accounts
comprised of 697,000 individual
worksites), as of April 2020. Each
month, firms report their employment,
payroll, and hours on forms identified
as the BLS–790. The sample is collected
under a probability-based design. Puerto
Rico and the Virgin Islands collect an
additional 8,500 reports.
A list of all form types currently used
appears in the table below. Respondents
receive variations of the basic collection
forms, depending on their industry. The
CES program is a voluntary program
under Federal statute. Reporting to the
State agencies is voluntary in all but
three States (New Mexico, Oregon, and
South Carolina), Puerto Rico, and the
Virgin Islands. To our knowledge, the
States that do have mandatory reporting
rarely exercise their authority. The
collection form’s confidentiality
statement cites the Confidential
Information Protection and Statistical
Efficiency Act and mentions the State
mandatory reporting authority. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
July 20, 2020 (85 FR 43878).
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
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 OMB Control Number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
DOL seeks PRA authorization for this
information collection for three (3)
years. OMB authorization for an ICR
cannot be for more than three (3) years
without renewal. The DOL notes that
information collection requirements
submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs
receive a month-to-month extension
while they undergo review.
