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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks to extend PRA authority for the 

Rehabilitation Action Report 

information collection. The contractor 

vocational rehabilitation counselor 

submits form OWCP–44 during an 

ongoing vocational rehabilitation. The 

form gives prompt notification of key 

events that may require OWCP action in 

the vocational rehabilitation process. 

For example, when a disabled worker 

returns to work, benefits are adjusted 

quickly to avoid an overpayment. The 

rehabilitation counselor from 

information in his or her records 

completes all items. The Federal 

Employees’ Compensation Act sections 

8104(a) and 8111(b) and the Longshore 

and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act 

sections 908(g) and 939(c) authorizes 

this information collection. See 5 U.S.C. 

8104(a), 8111(b) and 33 U.S.C. 908(g), 

939(c). 

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 

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 that does not 

display a valid Control Number. See 5 

CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL 

obtains OMB approval for this 

information collection under Control 

Number 1240–0008. 

OMB authorization for an ICR cannot 

be for more than three (3) years without 

renewal, and the DOL seeks to extend 

PRA authorization for this information 

collection for three (3) more years, 

without any change to existing 

requirements. The DOL notes that 

existing information collection 

requirements submitted to the OMB 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review. For 

additional substantive information 

about this ICR, see the related notice 

published in the Federal Register on 

October 18, 2017 (82 FR 48533). 

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 thirty (30) days of 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register. In order to help ensure 

appropriate consideration, comments 

should mention OMB Control Number 

1240–0008. 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. 

Agency: DOL–OWCP. 

Title of Collection: Rehabilitation

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

NASA’s founding legislation, the 

Space Act of 1958, as amended, directs 

the agency to expand human knowledge 

of Earth and space phenomena and to 

preserve the role of the United States as 

a leader in aeronautics, space science, 

and technology. The NASA Office of 

Education administers the agency’s 

national education activities in support 

of the Space Act, including the 

performance measurement and 

evaluation of educational projects and 

programs. This generic clearance will 

allow the NASA Office of Education to 

continue to test and pilot with subject 

matter experts, secondary students, 

higher education students, educators, 

and interested parties new and existing 

information collection forms and 

assessment instruments for the purposes 

of improvement and establishing 

validity and reliability characteristics of 

the forms and instruments. Existing 

information collections include 

Undergraduate Internship Impact 

Surveys (Baseline and Follow-up 

Instruments), Undergraduate Internship 

Impact Surveys (Retrospective and 

Traditional Developed Instruments), 

STEM Challenges Impact Surveys 

(Student Baseline and Follow-up 

Instruments), STEM Challenges Impact 

Surveys (Educator Retrospective 

Instruments), One Stop Shopping 

Initiative (OSSI) Student-level data

Performance Measurement (OEPM) 

Program-level data system. Forms and 

instruments to be tested include 

program application forms, customer 

satisfaction questionnaires, focus group 

protocols, and project activity survey 

instruments. Methodological testing will 

include focus group discussions, pilot 

surveys to test new individual question 

items as well as the complete form and 

instrument. In addition, test-retest and 

similar protocols will be used to 

determine reliability characteristics of 

the forms and instruments. 

Methodological testing will assure that 

forms and instruments accurately and 

consistently collect and measure what 

they are intended to measure and that 

data collection items are interpreted 

precisely and consistently, all towards 

the goal of accurate Agency reporting 

while improving the execution of NASA 

Education project activities.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

NASA’s founding legislation, the 

Space Act of 1958, as amended, directs 

the agency to expand human knowledge 

of Earth and space phenomena and to 

preserve the role of the United States as 

a leader in aeronautics, space science, 

and technology. The NASA Office of 

Education has three primary goals: (1) 

Strengthen NASA and the Nation’s 

future workforce, (2) attract and retain 

students in science, technology, 

engineering and mathematics, or STEM, 

disciplines, and (3) engage Americans in 

NASA’s mission. This notice informs 

the public of NASA’s intent to review 

and revise the currently approved 

information collection for STEM 

Challenge project activities. The request 

for emergency renewal pertains to the 

administration of surveys to youth in 

support of the agency’s STEM challenge 

activities for youth. The information 

collection was previously revised to 

collect the minimum amount of data 

required to (1) evaluate the activity for 

improvement opportunities, and (2) 

collect outcome data to assess the 

activity model’s effectiveness in meeting 

its intended objectives. The number of 

youth participating in this information 

collection were previously reduced to 

reflect the estimated number of 

participants who will be engaged in this 

activity in the future. The cost of the 

information collection, to participating 

members of the public, reflects a 

previous reduction as a result of the 

changes to the information collection 

described above.
