Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The ICR 

seeks PRA authorization for the DOL to 

conduct a national longitudinal study of 

unemployment insurance (UI) recipients 

that will help policymakers and 

program administrators gain 

information about the experiences of UI 

recipients. The study will examine the 

extent to which the UI program reduces 

recipients’ financial hardships, the ways 

in which job search and reemployment 

expectations change during and after 

benefit collection, and customer 

satisfaction levels with the UI program. 

The study will address research 

questions in six broad topic areas: (1) 

adequacy of UI benefits, (2) 

reemployment expectations, (3) job 

search, (4) total UI benefit usage, (5) 

employment outcomes, and (6) UI 

recipients’ satisfaction with the UI 

program. 

This proposed 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 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 

on July 22, 2013 (78 FR 43929).

BILLING CODE 4510–23–P 

LEGAL SERVICES CORPORATION 

Notice and Request for Comments: 

LSC Merger of Service Areas in 

Louisiana 

AGENCY: Legal Services Corporation. 

ACTION: Notice and Request for 

Comments—LSC merger of the two 

service areas covering the south-central 

and southeastern region of Louisiana. 

SUMMARY: The Legal Services 

Corporation (LSC) intends to merge the 

two service areas that cover the twelve 

counties of the south-central region of 

Louisiana (including Baton Rouge) and 

the ten counties of the southeastern 

region of the state (including New 

Orleans). Grants for these individual 

service areas have been awarded to 

Southeast Louisiana Legal Services 

Corporation (SLLSC) since 2011. For 

2014, LSC awarded SLLSC three-year 

grants for these two service areas. LSC 

intends to merge the two service areas 

into one service area and to award one 

grant for the new combined service area. 

Doing so will harmonize the grant 

structure with the current delivery 

model. 

DATES: All comments must be received 

on or before the close of business on 

March 12, 2014. 

ADDRESSES: Written comments may be 

submitted to LSC by email to 

competition@lsc.gov (this is the 

preferred option); by submitting a form 

online at http://www.lsc.gov/contact-us; 

by mail to Legal Services Corporation, 

3333 K Street NW., Third Floor, 

Washington, DC 20007, Attention: 

Reginald Haley; or by fax to 202–337– 

6813. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Reginald J. Haley, Office of Program 

Performance, Legal Services 

Corporation, 3333 K Street NW., 

Washington, DC 20007; or by email at 

haleyr@lsc.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

mission of LSC is to promote equal 

access to justice and to provide funding 

for high-quality civil legal assistance to 

low-income persons. Pursuant to its 

statutory authority, LSC designates 

service areas in U.S. states, territories, 

possessions, and the District of 

Columbia for which it provides grants to 

legal aid programs to provide free civil 

legal services. 

The LSC Act charges LSC with 

ensuring that ‘‘grants and contracts are 

made so as to provide the most 

economical and effective delivery of 

legal assistance to persons in both urban 

and rural areas.’’ 42 U.S.C. 2996f(a)(3). 

Merging the two Louisiana service areas 

will provide an economical and 

effective delivery approach for serving 

the legal needs of the low-income 

population and will harmonize the grant 

structure with the current delivery 

model. 

LSC provides grants through a 

competitive bidding process, which is 

regulated by 45 CFR Part 1634. In 2013, 

LSC implemented a competitive grants 

process for 2014 calendar year funding 

that included, inter alia, these Louisiana 

service areas. For 2014, LSC awarded 

SLLSC three-year grants for both of 

these service areas. LSC intends to 

merge the two service areas into a single 

service area and merge the 2014 grants 

for those service areas into a single grant 

beginning March 21, 2014. 

LSC invites public comment on this 

decision. Interested parties may submit 

comments to LSC no later than the close 

of business on March 12, 2014. More 

information about LSC can be found at:
