SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to 
reduce paperwork and respondent burden conducts a preclearance 
consultation program to provide the general 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 (PRA 95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This program helps to 
ensure that 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 on respondents can be properly assessed. This 
notice utilizes standard clearance procedures in accordance with the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 and 5 CFR 1320.12.

DATES: Written comments must be submitted to the office listed in the 
ADDRESSES section below on or before June 21, 2016.

ADDRESSES: Submit written comments to U.S. Department of Labor, 
Employment and Training Administration, Office of Workforce Investment, 
attn: Athena R. Brown, Room N-4209, 200 Constitution Avenue NW., 
Washington, DC 20210. Telephone number: 202-693-3737 (this is not a 
toll-free number).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    Each Indian and Native American (INA) grantee receiving WIOA, 
Section 166 funds (non-Pub. L. 102-477 grantees) to administer the 
Comprehensive Services Program (CSP) is required to submit a CSP Report 
(ETA Form 9084) on a quarterly basis. Grantees receiving WIOA Section 
166 Supplemental Youth Services Program (SYSP) funds (non-Pub. L. 102-
477 grantees) currently submit a SYSP Report (ETA Form 9085) semi-
annually. This request is to extend the existing ETA Form 9084 and 9085 
report submitted each quarter, or semi-annually, by INA grantees. The 
only revision to the ETA 9085 is to increase the age range for youth to 
twenty-four years old per the WIOA.
    ETA requires the collection and reporting of data on eligible 
persons served under the WIOA, Section 166 CSP and SYSP to assess the 
performance and delivery of services. The current ETA forms 9084 and 
9085 expire on September 30, 2016. This request is to extend the 
instructions and forms currently used until such time when the WIOA 
Final Rule and policy guidance are issued. Subsequently, a revised 
Information Collection Request will be required to comply with the 
Final Rule. In the interim, ETA will continue to administer the INA 
programs under the Workforce Investment Act (WIA) Final Rule.

II. Review Focus

    The Department of Labor is particularly interested in comments 
which:
    * Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary

[[Page 23753]]

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 
submissions of responses.
