The Department of Labor (Department), as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a preclearance consultation program to provide the public and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)] (PRA). The program helps ensure that respondents can provide requested data in the desired format with minimal reporting burden (time and financial resources), collection instruments are clearly understood and the impact of collection requirements on respondents can be properly assessed. Currently, ETA is soliciting comments concerning the extension of the expiration date (October 31, 2015) to October 2018 for ETA Forms 790 and 795, with no revisions made to either form. In situations where an adequate supply of workers does not exist locally, agricultural employers must use the Agricultural and Food Processing Clearance Order, ETA Form 790, to list the job opening with the State Workforce Agency (SWA) for recruiting temporary agricultural workers. The Agricultural and Food Processing Clearance Memorandum, ETA Form 795, is used by SWAs to extend job orders beyond their jurisdictions, give notice of action on a clearance order, request additional information, amend the order, report results, and accept or reject the extended job order. 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 1205-0134.

continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a 
preclearance consultation program to provide the public and Federal 
agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing 
collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)] (PRA). The program helps ensure 
that respondents can provide requested data in the desired format with 
minimal reporting burden (time and financial resources), collection 
instruments are clearly understood and the impact of collection 
requirements on respondents can be properly assessed.
    Currently, ETA is soliciting comments concerning the extension of

employers must use the Agricultural and Food Processing Clearance 
Order, ETA Form 790, to list the job opening with the State Workforce 
Agency (SWA) for recruiting temporary agricultural workers. The 
Agricultural and Food Processing Clearance Memorandum, ETA Form 795, is 
used by SWAs to extend job orders beyond their jurisdictions, give 
notice of action on a clearance order, request additional information, 
amend the order, report results, and accept or reject the extended job 
order.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    Currently, ETA is soliciting comments regarding the extension of 
the expiration date for the Agricultural and Food Processing Clearance 
Order Form (ETA Form 790) without revisions and for the Agricultural 
and Food Processing Clearance Memorandum (ETA Form 795) without 
revisions.
    The Agricultural and Food Processing Clearance Order, ETA Form 790, 
is used by agricultural employers to list the job opening with the 
State Workforce Agencies (SWAs) for recruiting temporary agricultural 
workers in situations where an adequate supply of workers does not 
exist locally. The Agricultural and Food Processing Clearance 
Memorandum, ETA Form 795, is used by SWAs to extend job orders beyond 
their jurisdictions, give notice of action on a clearance order, 
request additional information, amend the order, report results, and 
accept or reject the extended job order.

II. Review Focus

    The Department is particularly interested in comments which:
     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;

[[Page 36856]]

     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 submissions of responses.
