responses will be considered by the 

Commission if received not later than 20 

days after the date of service by the 

Commission of the complaint and the 

notice of investigation. Extensions of 

time for submitting responses to the 

complaint and the notice of 

investigation will not be granted unless 

good cause therefor is shown. 

Failure of a respondent to file a timely 

response to each allegation in the 

complaint and in this notice may be 

deemed to constitute a waiver of the 

right to appear and contest the 

allegations of the complaint and this 

notice, and to authorize the 

administrative law judge and the 

Commission, without further notice to 

the respondent, to find the facts to be as 

alleged in the complaint and this notice 

and to enter an initial determination 

and a final determination containing 

such findings, and may result in the 

issuance of an exclusion order or a cease 

and desist order or both directed against 

the respondent. 

Issued: March 25, 2009. 

By order of the Commission. 

Marilyn R. Abbott, 

Secretary to the Commission.

Administration 

Information Collection Request for the 

ETA 191, Statement of Expenditures 

and Financial Adjustments of Federal 

Funds for Unemployment 

Compensation for Federal Employees 

and Ex-Servicemembers Report: 

Extension Without Change, Comment 

Request 

AGENCY: Employment and Training 

Administration. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as 

part of its continuing effort to reduce 

paperwork and respondent burden, 

conducts a preclearance consultation 

program to provide the general public 

and Federal agencies with an 

opportunity to comment on proposed 

and/or continuing collection of 

information in accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. 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. 

A copy of the proposed information 

collection request (ICR) can be obtained 

by contacting the office listed below in 

the ADDRESSES section of this notice or 

by accessing: http://www.doleta.gov/ 

OMBCN/OMBControlNumber.cfm. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

submitted to the office listed in the 

ADDRESSES section below on or before 

June 1, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Thomas Stengle, U.S. 

Department of Labor, Employment and 

Training Administration, Office of 

Workforce Security, 200 Constitution 

Avenue, NW., Room S–4231, 

Washington, DC 20210; by phone at 

(202) 693–2991 (this is not a toll-free

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background: Public Law 97–362, 

Miscellaneous Revenue Act of 1982, 

amended the Unemployment 

Compensation for Ex-Servicemembers 

(UCX) law (5 U.S.C. 8509), and Public 

Law 96–499, Omnibus Budget 

Reconciliation Act, amended the 

Unemployment Compensation for 

Federal Employees (UCFE) law (5 U.S.C. 

8501, et. seq.) requiring each Federal 

employing agency to pay the costs of 

regular and extended UCFE/UCX 

benefits paid to its employees by the 

State Workforce Agencies (SWAs). The 

ETA 191 report submitted quarterly by 

each SWA shows the amount of benefits 

that should be charged to each Federal 

employing agency. The Office of 

Workforce Security uses this 

information to aggregate the SWA 

quarterly charges and submit one 

official bill to each Federal agency being 

charged. Federal agencies then 

reimburse the Federal Employees 

Compensation (FEC) Account 

maintained by the U.S. Treasury. 

II. Desired Focus of Comments: 

Currently, the Employment and 

Training Administration is soliciting 

comments concerning the proposed 

extension of the ETA 191, Statement of 

Expenditures and Financial 

Adjustments of Federal Funds for 

Unemployment Compensation for 

Federal Employees and ExServicemembers Report. Comments are 

requested to: 

• Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary to 

assess performance of the nonmonetary 

determination function, 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 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.
