SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The Equal Employment Opportunity 

Commission (EEOC) regulations at 29 

CFR 1614.106 require that a Federal 

employee or applicant for Federal 

employment alleging discrimination 

based on race, color, sex, national 

origin, religion, age, disability, or 

reprisal for protected activity must 

submit a signed statement that is 

sufficiently precise to identify the 

actions or practices that form the bases 

of the complaint. Although 

complainants are not required to use the 

proposed form to file their complaints, 

the Office of Civil Rights strongly 

encourages its use to ensure efficient 

case processing and trend analyses of 

complaint activity. The proposed form 

is an update of a previously approved 

collection. The revisions update the 

room and fax numbers for the 

submission of complaints, make 

collection of the complainant’s Social 

Security Number optional, clarify the 

information requested about the 

organizational and geographic location 

where the complaint arose, and provide 

space for complainants and 

representatives to supply e-mail 

addresses. 

II. Method of Collection 

A paper form, signed by the 

complainant or his or her designated 

representative, must be submitted by 

mail or delivery service, in person, or by 

facsimile transmission. 

III. Data 

OMB Control Number: 0690–0015.

households.

minutes.

Public: $156. 

IV. Request for Comments 

Comments are invited on: (a) Whether 

the proposed collection of information 

is necessary for the proper performance 

of the functions of the agency, including 

whether the information shall have 

practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden 

(including hours and cost) of the 

proposed collection of information; (c) 

ways to enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (d) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on respondents, including through the 

use of automated collection techniques 

or other forms of information 

technology. 

Comments submitted in response to 

this notice will be summarized and/or 

included in the request for OMB 

approval of this information collection; 

they also will become a matter of public 

record.
