conducts a pre-clearance consultation 

program to provide the general public 

and Federal agencies with an 

opportunity to comment on proposed 

and/or continuing collections of 

information in accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. This 

program helps to ensure that requested 

data can be provided in the desired 

format, reporting burden (time and 

financial resources) is minimized, 

collection instruments are clearly 

understood, and the impact of collection 

requirements on respondents can be 

properly assessed. The Bureau of Labor 

Statistics (BLS) is soliciting comments 

concerning the proposed extension 

without change of the ‘‘Veterans 

Supplement to the Current Population 

Survey (CPS),’’ to be conducted in 

August 2024, August 2025, and August 

2026. A copy of the proposed 

information collection request can be 

obtained by contacting the individual

submitted to the office listed in the 

ADDRESSES section of this notice on or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The CPS has been the principal 

source of official Government statistics 

on employment and unemployment 

since 1940 (75 years). Collection of labor 

force data through the CPS is necessary 

to meet the requirements in Title 29, 

United States Code, Sections 1 and 2. 

The Veterans Supplement provides 

information on the labor force status of 

veterans with a service-connected 

disability, combat veterans, past or 

present National Guard and Reserve 

members, and recently discharged 

veterans. Afghanistan, Iraq, and 

Vietnam veterans are identified by 

location of service. Also, questions 

include items about veterans’ transition 

from Active Duty to civilian 

employment, details about working with 

service-connected disabilities, 

awareness of VA benefits, and work 

duties while in the Armed Forces. Data 

are provided by period of service and a 

range of demographic characteristics. 

The supplement also provides 

information on veterans’ participation 

in various transition and employment 

and training programs. The data 

collected through this supplement will 

be used by the U.S. Department of 

Labor’s Veterans Employment and 

Training Service (VETS) and the U.S. 

Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to 

determine policies that better meet the 

needs of our Nation’s veteran 

population. 

II. Current Action 

Office of Management and Budget 

clearance is being sought for the 

Veterans Supplement to the CPS. 

An extension without change of a 

currently approved collection is needed 

to continue to provide the Nation with 

timely information about the labor force 

status of veterans with a serviceconnected disability, combat veterans, 


lotter on DSK11XQN23PROD with NOTICES1
Federal Register / Vol. 89, No. 39 / Tuesday, February 27, 2024 / Notices 14523 

past or present National Guard and 

Reserve members, recently discharged 

veterans, and veterans who have served 

in Afghanistan, Iraq, or Vietnam. In 

addition, the Veterans Supplement will 

provide information to assist VA and 

VETS to develop programs and policies 

that smooth veterans’ transition into 

civilian employment, including for 

veterans with service-connected 

disabilities. 

III. Desired Focus of Comments 

The Bureau of Labor Statistics 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. 

• 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 submissions 

of responses.

Accounting Standards Board meetings. 

SUMMARY: The Office of Federal 

Procurement Policy (OFPP), Cost 

Accounting Standards Board (CAS 

Board) is publishing this notice to 

advise the public of its recent and 

upcoming meetings. The meetings are 

closed to the public. 

ADDRESSES: New Executive Office 

Building, 725 17th Street NW, 

Washington, DC 20503. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: John 

L. McClung, Manager, Cost Accounting 

Standards Board (telephone: 202–881– 

9758; email: john.l.mcclung2@

omb.eop.gov). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The CAS 

Board is issuing this notice to inform 

the public of the discussion topics for 

recent meetings held on January 17, 

2024 and February 20, 2024, and for a 

meeting scheduled March 11, 2024. The 

list of agenda items for these meetings 

is set forth below. While CAS Board 

meetings are closed to the public, the 

Board welcomes comments and 

inquiries, which may be directed to the 

manager using the contact information 

provided above. The Board is interested 

in specific comments on the 

prioritization of cases on the open 

docket and on any additional issues that 

the Board should consider. 

Agenda for CAS Board Meetings During 

the Second Quarter, Fiscal Year 2024 

1. Conformance of CAS to Generally 

Accepted Accounting Principles 

(GAAP). 41 U.S.C. 1501(c)(2) requires 

the CAS Board to review and conform 

CAS, where practicable, to GAAP. In 

furtherance of section 1501(c)(2), the 

CAS Board will consider the following: 

(1) issuance of a Notice of Proposed 

Rule Making addressing the impact of 

GAAP changes to operating revenue and 

lease accounting based on the public 

comments received in response to the 

Advanced Notice of Proposed Rule 

Making (ANPRM) (85 FR 70572, 

November 5, 2020); (2) issuance of an 

ANPRM addressing conformance of 

CAS 408, Accounting for costs of 

compensated personal absence, and 

CAS 409, Cost accounting standard 

depreciation of tangible capital assets, 

to GAAP based on public comments 

received in response to the Staff 

Discussion Paper (84 FR 9143, March 

2019); (3) whether and what type of 

accounting change conformance of CAS 

to GAAP might trigger and the 

associated implications. 

2. Application of CAS to Indefinite 

Delivery Vehicle (IDVs) contracts. The 

Board will discuss a draft notice seeking 

public comment on application of CAS 

monetary thresholds to IDV contracts. 

3. Pension Harmonization for 

Extraordinary Events. The Board will 

discuss an ANPRM to modify CAS 412 

and CAS 413. The ANPRM would be a 

follow-on to a rulemaking issued in 

2011 required by the Pension Protection 

Act (PPA) of 2006. The purpose of the 

ANPRM is to reconcile the application 

of the PPA and the CAS adjustment of 

pension costs for extraordinary events 

(i.e., curtailment of pension plan 

benefits, termination of plans, and the 

accounting of pension plan assets or 

liabilities following the sale or closing 

of a corporate segment). 

4. Waivers. Section 820 of the 

National Defense Authorization Act for 

FY 2017, amended section 1502(b)(3)(A) 

of title 41 of the United States Code to 

raise the threshold under which CAS 

may be waived if the business unit of 

the contractor or subcontractor that will 

perform the work is primarily engaged 

in the sale of commercial items and 

would not otherwise be subject to CAS. 

Section 820 raised the threshold from 

$15 million to $100 million. The Board 

will discuss a rulemaking to amend the 

CAS to reflect this statutory threshold 

change. 

5. Public input. The Board will 

reserve time to discuss suggestions 

received from the public in response to 

this notice. 

The notice is published pursuant to 

41 U.S.C. 1501(d), which requires the 

CAS Board to publish agendas of its 

meetings in the Federal Register.
