SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks PRA authority for the Youth 
CareerConnect (YCC) Impact and Implementation Evaluation information 
collection. In spring 2014, the DOL awarded 24 grants to implement the 
YCC program. The program is a high school based initiative aimed at 
improving students' college and career readiness in particular 
employment sectors. The programs are redesigning the high school 
experience through partnerships with colleges and employers to provide 
skill-developing and work-based learning opportunities

[[Page 12206]]

to help students prepare for jobs in high-demand occupations. The 
evaluation will address three main research areas: (1) The impact of 
the YCC programs on students' short-term outcomes, (2) individual YCC 
program implementation, and (3) whether and how YCC programs varied in 
effectiveness based on student and grantee characteristics. The impact 
study will employ a randomized controlled trial to estimate program 
effectiveness and will be carried out in a subset of YCC grantees. The 
implementation study will draw on data gathered from all YCC grantees. 
The American Competitiveness and Workforce Improvement Act authorizes 
this information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 2916a.
    This proposed 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 if the collection of information does not display a valid 
Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. For additional 
information, see the related notice published in the Federal Register 
on October 17, 2015 (79 FR 62467).
    Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, 
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in 
the ADDRESSES section within thirty (30) days of publication of this 
notice in the Federal Register. In order to help ensure appropriate 
consideration, comments should mention OMB ICR Reference Number 201501-
1291-002. The OMB 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.
