SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks approval under the PRA to 
revise the Report on Occupational Employment and Wages information 
collection. The Occupational Employment Statistics (OES) survey is a 
Federal/State establishment survey of wage and salary workers designed 
to produce data on current detailed occupational employment and wages 
for each Metropolitan Statistical Area and Metropolitan Division as 
well as by detailed industry classification. OES survey data assists in 
the development of employment and training programs established by the 
Perkins Vocational Education Act of 1998. This ICR has been classified 
as a revision, because the OES program seeks to change its OMB 
clearance to test the efficiency of using email to contact respondents 
in lieu of mailing paper forms and to conduct a non-response analysis 
survey. Wagner-Peyser Act section 15 authorizes this information 
collection. See 29 U.S.C. 49l-2.
    This 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 that 
does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 
1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this information collection 
under Control Number 1220-0042. The current approval is scheduled to 
expire on March 31, 2020; however, the DOL notes that existing 
information collection requirements submitted to the OMB receive a 
month-to-month extension while they undergo review. New requirements 
would only take effect upon OMB approval. For additional substantive 
information about this ICR, see the related notice published in the 
Federal Register on April 22, 2016 (81 FR 23753).
    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 Control Number 1220-0042. 
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.
    Agency: DOL-BLS.
    Title of Collection: Report on Occupational Employment and Wages.
    OMB Control Number: 1220-0042.
    Affected Public: Federal Government; State, Local, and Tribal
