SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks PRA authority for a DOL 
generic solution for site visits for research purposes information 
collection in order to be able to carry out evaluation data collection 
in a timely manner and to facilitate the gathering of critical 
information to support analysis around core research questions. 
Qualitative information will be collected from individuals who are 
familiar with, are administering or participating in, the intervention 
being evaluated. Site visits provide critical data for research and 
evaluation projects that can: (1) Describe implementation issues, the 
context in which the intervention was implemented, services, management 
and costs; (2) describe the experiences of service providers at each of 
the study sites, including site perspectives on implementation 
challenges and intervention effects; (3) describe the experiences and 
responses of individuals administering or participating in the 
intervention; (4) document the extent to which the intervention was 
implemented as planned; and (5) describe the extent to which treatment 
and control or comparison groups received the intended services of the 
intervention, if applicable. Sources of qualitative information 
proposed for collection include: (1) Exploratory discussions during 
site recruitment; (2) in-person or telephone discussions with 
individuals and/or groups from selected sites; and (3) focus groups.

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

information to be collected; and
     Minimize the burden of the collection of information on
