Proposed Disposal and Reuse of
Excess Property
The Department of Labor’s
(DOL) Employment and Training
Administration, pursuant to the Council
on Environmental Quality Regulations
implementing procedural provisions of
the National Environmental Policy Act
(NEPA), gives final notice of the
proposed disposal of 2 parcels totaling
469.15 acres of excess property located
southwest and east of the portion of the
Earle C. Clements Job Corps Center
campus to remain and that this project
will not have a significant adverse
impact on the environment.
DATES: These findings are effective as of
September 21, 2021.
ADDRESSES: For further information
contact Jose Velazquez, Department of
Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW,
Room N–4460, Washington, DC 20210;

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Pursuant
to the Council on Environmental
Quality Regulations (40 CFR part 1500–
08) implementing procedural provisions
of the National Environmental Policy
Act (NEPA), in accordance with 29 CFR
11.11(d), gives final notice of the
proposed disposal of 2 parcels totaling
469.15 acres of excess property located
southwest and east of the portion of the
Earle C. Clements Job Corps Center
campus to remain and that this project
will not have a significant adverse
impact on the environment. A public
notice of availability of the draft
environmental assessment (EA) was
published in the Union County
Advocate in Morganfield, Kentucky, on
December 16, 2020. The review period
extended for 24 days, ending on January
8, 2021. No public comments were
received. No changes to the findings of
the EA have been made.
Implementation of the proposed
action alternative will not have
significant impacts on the human
environment. The determination is
sustained by the analysis in the EA,
agency, and Native American tribal
consultation, the inclusion and
consideration of public review, and the
capability of mitigations to reduce or
avoid impacts. Any adverse
environmental effects that could occur

are no more than minor in intensity,
duration and context and less-thansignificant. As described in the EA,
there are no highly uncertain or
controversial impacts, unique or
unknown risks, significant cumulative
effects, or elements of precedence.
There are no previous, planned, or
implemented actions, which, in
combination with the proposed action
alternative, would have significant
effects on the human environment.
Requirements of NEPA have been
satisfied, and preparation of an
Environmental Impact Statement is not
required.

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
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.
Public Law 97–362, Miscellaneous
Revenue Act of 1982, amended the
Unemployment Compensation for ExSevicemembers (UCX) law (5 U.S.C.
8509), and Public Law 96–499, Omnibus
Budget Reconciliation Act, amended the
Unemployment Compensation for
Federal Employees (UCFE) law (5 U.S.C.
8501, et. seq.) requiring each Federal
employing agency to pay the costs of
regular and extended UCFE/UCX
benefits paid to its employees by the
State Workforce Agencies (SWAs). The
ETA 191 report submitted quarterly by
each SWA shows the amount of benefits
that should be charged to each Federal
employing agency. ETA’s Office of
Unemployment Insurance uses this
information to aggregate the SWA
quarterly charges and submit one
official bill to each Federal agency being
charged. Federal agencies then
reimburse the Federal Employees
Compensation Account maintained by
the U.S. Department of the Treasury.
The Social Security Act, Section 303 (a)
(6), 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

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–
0162.
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.
