COMMITTEE FOR PURCHASE FROM PEOPLE WHO ARE BLIND OR SEVERELY DISABLED


Information Collection To Be Submitted to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) for Approval Under the Paperwork Reduction 
Act; Individual Eligibility Evaluation

AGENCY: Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or Severely 
Disabled.

ACTION: Notice; request for comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Committee for Purchase From People Who Are Blind or 
Severely Disabled (Committee) will submit the collection of information 
listed below to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review 
and approval under the provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act. This 
notice solicits comments on this collection of information.

DATES: Submit your written comments on the information collection on or 
before August 26, 2015.

ADDRESSES: Submit your comments on the requirement to Lou Bartalot, 
Director Compliance, Committee for Purchase from People Who Are Blind 
or Severely Disabled, 1401 South Clark Street, Suite 715, Arlington, VA 
22202; fax (703) 603-0655; or email [email protected].

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request a copy of the applicable 
form or explanatory material, contact Lou Bartalot or Amy Jensen at 
addresses in the above paragraph.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) 
regulations at 5 CFR part 1320, which implement provisions of the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq.), require that 
interested members of the public and affected agencies have an 
opportunity to comment on information collection and recordkeeping 
activities (see 5 CFR 1320.8(d)). The Committee plans to submit a 
request to OMB renew its approval of form used for the initial and 
annual evaluations of competitive employability required by the 
Committee's regulations (41 CFR 51-4.3). The Committee is requesting a 
3-year term of approval for this recordkeeping activity.
    Federal agencies may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not 
required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays 
a currently valid OMB control number. The OMB control number for this 
collection is 3037-0011.
    The JWOD Act of 1971 (41 U.S.C. 8501 et seq.) is the authorizing 
legislation for the AbilityOne Program. The AbilityOne Program creates 
jobs and training opportunities for people who are blind or who have 
other significant disabilities. Its primary means of doing so is by 
requiring Government agencies to purchase products and services 
provided by nonprofit agencies employing such individuals. The 
AbilityOne Program is administered by the Committee. Two national, 
independent organizations, National Industries for the Blind (NIB) and 
SourceAmerica, help State and private nonprofit agencies participate in 
the AbilityOne Program.
    The implementing regulations for the JWOD Act, which are located at 
41 CFR chapter 51, provide the requirements, procedures, and standards 
for the AbilityOne Program. Section 51-4.3 of the regulations sets 
forth the standards that a nonprofit agency must meet to maintain 
qualification for participation in the AbilityOne Program. Under this 
section of the regulations, a nonprofit agency that wants to continue 
to participate in the AbilityOne Program must conduct evaluations on 
each individual performing direct labor to determine their capability 
to engage in normal competitive employment at least annually.
    This information collection renewal request seeks approval for the 
Committee to continue to require the use of a standardized, Committee-
developed, form to record the evaluation.
    Title: AbilityOne Program Individual Eligibility Evaluation.
    OMB Control Number: 3037-0011.
    Form Number: Committee Form IEE.
    Description of Respondents: Nonprofit agencies serving people who

[[Page 36775]]

are blind or severely disabled that participate in the AbilityOne 
Program.
    Annual Number of Respondents: About 570 nonprofit agencies serving 
people who are blind or significantly disabled that participate in the 
AbilityOne Program.
    Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: Burden for conducting the 
evaluations is included in the Committee's recordkeeping requirement 
under OMB Control number 3037-005.
    We invite comments concerning this renewal on: (1) Whether the 
collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of 
our agency's functions, including whether the information will have 
practical utility; (2) the accuracy of our estimate of the burden of 
the collection of information; (3) ways to enhance the quality, 
utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways 
to minimize the burden of the collection of information.

    Dated: June 23, 2015.

Director, Business Operations.
