Background

    As part of its effort to comply with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995 (Pub. L. 104-13, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), the Department of Energy 
sought comments from the general public and other Federal agencies 
regarding this collection of information through its June 9, 2000 
notice in the Federal Register (65 FR 36679). No comments were received 
during this 60-day review period. The Department now seeks approval by 
the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for clearance of its surveys 
designed for the IAC effort.
    Data will be collected from IAC participants concerning energy, 
waste, productivity and cost savings generated through their 
participation in IAC assessments or through their use of technical 
information provided by IAC-sponsored web-sites. Data will be collected 
from clients, program alumni, and IAC web-users using either 
electronic, web-based surveys or telephone interviews. Participation is 
voluntary. The data will provide input for monitoring performance and 
satisfaction of IAC participants.

    Statutory Authority: Section 3507(a) and 3506(c) of the 
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. No. 104-13, 44 U.S.C. 
Chapter 35).

    Issued in Washington, DC, September 28, 2000.

Director, Division of Records Management.
