SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

Background

Since the inception of the service

centers, several names have been

attributed to them. Examples are:

Regional Adjudication Center, Regional

Service Center, (regional label such as)

Southern Service Center, etc. This

notice seeks to clarify the references to

all service centers, and to conform to the

Service’s reorganization. Also, the INS

is testing the direct mail of employmentbased petitions at the Texas Service

Center for a 6-month period to

determine whether to expand the

processing of these cases on a

permanent basis.

Service center names: Service centers

will henceforth be identified by the state

in which they are located. The use of

the state name as an identifier to

distinguish between the four centers

does not affect their multi-state

jurisdiction. The following is a current

listing of the service centers.

Vermont Service Center

Texas Service Center

Nebraska Service Center

California Service Center

Conversion to direct mail at the Texas

Service Center: The INS intends to

expand its Direct Mail Program in the

near future to allow more types of

applications and petitions to be filed

directly with service centers. By

expanding the authority to file

employment-based petitions at all four

service centers, the Service would

achieve greater uniformity and

coordination in the adjudication

processes. During the 6-month trial

period, beginning the date this notice is

published, in addition to those petitions

and applications currently being filed

with the Texas Service Center, the

following employment-based petitions,

except for those relating to major league

baseball, the National Hockey League,

and the North American Free Trade

Agreement (NAFTA), may be filed at

that Service Center:

1. Form I–129, Petition for a Nonimmigrant

Worker.

2. Form I–140, Immigrant Petition for Alien

Worker.

3. Form I–526, Immigrant Petition by Alien

Entrepreneur.

4. Form I–829, Petition by Entrepreneur to

Remove the Conditions.

The trial program is only available to

those commercial enterprises whose

work, training, or location is in

Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia,

Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, New

Mexico, North Carolina, Oklahoma,

South Caroline, Tennessee, or Texas.

This trial program is optional for

those specified above, and pertains only

to the 4 above-stated types of petitions.

During the trial period, a petitioner also

has the option to file the above-stated

types of petitions with the service center

currently having jurisdiction. If a

petitioner files a petition with the Texas

Service Center, however, the petitioner

may not file an identical petition for the

same beneficiary with another service

center or office of the INS.

The mailing address of the Texas

Service Center is: Texas Service Center,

Dept. A, P.O. Box 152122, Irving, TX

75015–2122.

Dated: April 25, 1995.

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Employment Standards Administration

Wage and Hour Division

Minimum Wages for Federal and

Federally Assisted Construction;

General Wage Determination Decisions

General wage determination decisions

of the Secretary of Labor are issued in

accordance with applicable law and are

based on the information obtained by

the Department of Labor from its study

of local wage conditions and data made

available from, other sources. They

specify the basic hourly wage rates and

fringe benefits which are determined to

be prevailing for the described classes of

laborers and mechanics employed on

construction projects of a similar

character and in the localities specified

therein.

The determinations in these decisions

of prevailing rates and fringe benefits

have been made in accordance with 29

CFR Part 1, by authority of the Secretary

of Labor pursuant to the provisions of

the Davis-Bacon Act of March 3, 1931,

as amended (46 Stat. 1494, as amended

by 40 U.S.C. 276a) and of other Federal

statutes referred to in 29 CFR Part 1,

Appendix, as well as such additional

statutes as may from time to time be

enacted containing provisions for the

payment of wages determined to be

prevailing by the Secretary of Labor in

accordance with the Davis-Bacon Act.

The prevailing rates and fringe benefits

determined in these decisions shall, in

accordance with the provisions of the

foregoing statutes, constitute the

minimum wages payable on Federal and

federally assisted construction projects

to laborers and mechanics of the

specified classes engaged on contract

work of the character and in the

localities described therein.

Good cause is hereby found for not

utilizing notice and public comment

procedure thereon prior to the issuance

of these determinations as prescribed in

5 U.S.C. 553 and not providing for delay

in the effective date as prescribed in that

section, because the necessity to issue

current construction industry wage

determinations frequently and in large

volume causes procedures to be

impractical and contrary to the pubic

interest.

General wage determination

decisions, and modifications and

supersede as decisions thereto, contain

no expiration dates and are effective

from their date of notice in the Federal

Register, or on the date written notice

is received by the agency, whichever is

earlier. These decisions are to be used

in accordance with the provisions of 29

CFR Parts 1 and 5. Accordingly, the

applicable decision, together with any

modifications issued, must be made a

part of every contract for performance of

the described work within the

geographic area indicated as required by

an applicable Federal prevailing wage

law and 29 CFR Part 5. The wage rates

and fringe benefits, notice of which is

published herein, and which are

contained in the Government Printing

Office (GPO) document entitled

‘‘General Wage Determinations Issued

Under The Davis-Bacon And Related

Acts,’’ shall be the minimum paid by

contractors and subcontractors to

laborers and mechanics.
22410 Federal Register / Vol. 60, No. 87 / Friday, May 5, 1995 / Notices

Any person, organization, or

governmental agency having an interest

in the rates determined as prevailing is

encouraged to submit wage rate and

fringe benefit information for

consideration by the Department.

Further information and selfexplanatory forms for the purpose of

submitting this data maybe obtained by

writing to the U.S. Department of Labor,

Policy, invites comments on the

following proposed expedited review

information collection request as

required by the Paperwork Reduction

Act of 1980, as amended.

DATES: This expedited review is being

requested in accordance with the Act,

since allowing for the normal review

period would adversely affect the public

interest. Approval by the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB) has

been requested by June 1, 1995.

ADDRESSES: Written comments should

be addressed to the Office of

Management and Budget (OMB), Office

of Information and Regulatory Affairs,

Attention: Dan Chenok, Desk Officer,

725 17th St., NW., Room 10235, New

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section

3517 of the Paperwork Reduction Act of

1980 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 3517) requires

that the Director of OMB provide

interested persons an early opportunity

to comment on information collection

requests. OMB may amend or waive the

requirement for public consultation to

the extent that public participation in

the approval process would defeat the

purpose of the information collection,

violate State or Federal law, or

substantially interfere with the agency’s

ability to perform its statutory

obligations.

The Director, Office of Information

Resources Management Policy,

publishes this notice simultaneously

with the submission of this request to

OMB. This notice contains the following

information:

Type of Review: Expedited.

Title: National Survey of

Unemployment Insurance.

Frequency of Response: One-time.

Affected Public: Individuals or

households.

Number of Respondents: 1,200.

Estimated Time Per Response: 12

minutes.

Total Annual Burden Hours: 240.

Respondents Obligation to Reply:

Voluntary.

Description: In November 1991, the

Congress of the United States passed the

Emergency Unemployment

Compensation Act. In accordance with

the Act, Congress created the Advisory

Council on Unemployment

Compensation (ACUC). The ACUC’s

primary responsibility is to evaluate the

unemployment compensation program,

including the purpose, goals,

countercyclical effectiveness, coverage,

benefit adequacy, trust fund solvency,

funding of State administrative costs,

administrative efficiency, and any other

aspects of the program, and to make

recommendations for improvement.

In carrying out its mandate to evaluate

and analyze the unemployment

insurance system the ACUC has

determined that it is very important to

assess public opinion and public

knowledge regarding the performance,

fairness, coverage, adequacy, and

satisfaction of the unemployment

system currently in place. A telephone

survey of a random sample of adults 18

years and older will be conducted.
