Public Law 102-477 Demonstration Project

AGENCY: Bureau of Indian Affairs, Interior.

ACTION: Notice of Information Collection; request for comment.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the 
Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) is proposing to renew an information 
collection.

DATES: Interested persons are invited to submit comments on or before 
December 15, 2017.

ADDRESSES: Send your comments on the information collection request 
(ICR) by mail to Mr. Terrence Parks, Chief, Division of Workforce 
Development, Bureau of Indian Affairs--Indian Services, 1849 C St. NW., 
MS-3645-MIB, Washington, DC 20240; facsimile: (202) 513-7625; email: 
[email protected]. Please reference OMB Control Number 1076-0135 
in the subject line of your comments.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: To request additional information 
about this ICR, contact Mr. Terrence Parks, telephone (202) 513-7625.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995, we provide the general public and other Federal agencies 
with an opportunity to comment on new, proposed, revised, and 
continuing collections of information. This helps us assess the impact 
of our information collection requirements and minimize the public's 
reporting burden. It also helps the public understand our information 
collection requirements and provide the requested data in the desired 
format.
    We are soliciting comments on the proposed ICR that is described 
below. We are especially interested in public comment addressing the 
following issues: (1) Is the collection necessary to the proper 
functions of the BIA; (2) will this information be processed and used 
in a timely manner; (3) is the estimate of burden accurate; (4) how 
might the BIA enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and (5) how might the BIA minimize the 
burden of this collection on the respondents, including through the use 
of information technology.
    Comments that you submit in response to this notice are a matter of 
public record. We will include or summarize each comment in our request 
to OMB to approve this ICR. Before including your address, phone 
number, email address, or other personal identifying information in 
your comment, you should be aware that your entire comment--including 
your personal identifying information--may be made publicly available 
at any time. While you can ask us in your comment to withhold your 
personal identifying information from public review, we cannot 
guarantee that we will be able to do so.
    Abstract: The BIA--Indian Services is seeking revisions for the 
information collection Reporting System for Public Law 102-477 
Demonstration Project. This information allows the Division of 
Workforce Development (DWD), which reports to the BIA--Indian Services, 
to document satisfactory compliance with statutory, regulatory, and 
other requirements of the various integrated programs. Public Law 102-
477 authorized tribal governments to integrate federally funded 
employment, training, and related services and programs into a single, 
coordinated, comprehensive service delivery plan. Funding agencies 
include the Department of Labor and the Department of Health and Human 
Services. BIA is statutorily required to serve as the lead agency and 
provides a single, universal report format for use by tribal 
governments to report on integrated activities and expenditures. The 
DWD shares the information collected from these reports with the 
Department of Labor and the Department of Health and Human Services.
    This renewal will be revised to include information collected under 
25 CFR part 26 to administer the job placement and training program, 
through Tribes, which provides vocational/technical training, related 
counseling, guidance, and job placement services, and limited financial 
assistance to Indian individuals who are not less than 18 years old and 
who reside with the Department of the Interior (DOI) approved service 
areas. Public Law 102-477 allows tribes to consolidate into a single 
plan, single budget and single report to one office programs they 
currently have under contract or grant. The job placement and training 
program has been included in these 477 plans. Since tribes determine 
which programs will be included, the plans vary from tribe to tribe. 
Submission of this information allows DOI, through Tribes, to 
administer the job placement and training program, which provides 
vocational/technical training, related counseling, guidance, job 
placement services, and limited financial assistance to Indian 
individuals who are not less than 18 years old and who reside within 
DOI approved service areas. The information collection includes an 
application for services, quarterly progress reports, and information 
from employers regarding opportunities.
