16840 Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 58 / Friday, March 25, 2011 / Notices 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under 

Executive Orders 12073 and 10582, the 

DOL issues an annual list of Labor 

Surplus Areas (LSAs) used by Federal 

and State entities in a number of actions 

such as procurement and property 

transfer. The annual LSA list is updated 

during the year, based upon petitions 

submitted to the DOL by State 

Workforce Agencies requesting 

additional areas for LSA certification. 

This information collection is specified 

by regulations 20 CFR part 654. 

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 

currently 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 if the 

collection of information does not 

display a currently valid OMB control 

number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 

1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval 

for this information collection under 

OMB Control Number 1205–0207. The 

current OMB approval is scheduled to 

expire on March 31, 2011; however, it 

should be noted that information 

collections submitted to the OMB 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review. For 

additional information, see the related 

notice published in the Federal Register 

on December 10, 2010 (75 FR 77001). 

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 30 days of publication of 

this notice in the Federal Register. In 

order to help ensure appropriate 

consideration, comments should 

reference OMB Control Number 1205– 

0207. 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.
