SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background: These meetings are being 

held pursuant to Sec. 308 of the 

Workforce Innovation and Opportunity 

Act of 2014 (WIOA) (Pub. L. 113–128), 

which amends Sec. 15 of the WagnerPeyser Act of 1933 (29 U.S.C. 491–2). 

The WIAC is a federal advisory 

committee of workforce and labor 

market information experts representing 

a broad range of national, State, and 

local data and information users and 

producers. The WIAC was established 

in accordance with provisions of the 

Federal Advisory Committee Act 

(FACA), as amended (5 U.S.C. App.) 

and will act in accordance with the 

applicable provisions of FACA and its 

implementing regulation at 41 CFR 

102–3. The purpose of the WIAC is to 

provide recommendations to the 

Secretary of Labor (Secretary), working 

jointly through the Assistant Secretary 

for Employment and Training and the 

Commissioner of Labor Statistics, to 

address: (1) The evaluation and 

improvement of the nationwide 

workforce and labor market information 

(WLMI) system and statewide systems 

that comprise the nationwide system; 

and (2) how the Department and the 

States will cooperate in the management 

of those systems. These systems include 

programs to produce employmentrelated statistics and State and local 

workforce and labor market information. 

The Department of Labor anticipates 

the WIAC will accomplish its objectives 

by: (1) Studying workforce and labor 

market information issues; (2) seeking 

and sharing information on innovative 

approaches, new technologies, and data 

to inform employment, skills training, 

and workforce and economic 

development decision making and 

policy; and (3) advising the Secretary on 

how the workforce and labor market 

information system can best support 

workforce development, planning, and 

program development. Additional 

information is available at www.dol.gov/ 

agencies/eta/wioa/wiac/meetings. 

Purpose: The WIAC is currently in the 

process of identifying and reviewing 

issues and aspects of the WLMI system 

and statewide systems that comprise the 

nationwide system and how the 

Department and the States will 

cooperate in the management of those 

systems. As part of this process, the 

Advisory Council meets to gather 

information and to engage in 

deliberative and planning activities to 

facilitate the development and provision 

of its recommendations to the Secretary 

in a timely manner. 

Agenda: The agenda topics for this 

series of virtual meetings are: (1) Review 

and approve minutes from the previous 

meeting; (2) remarks and discussion 

with Department of Labor leadership or 

agency staff on role of WLMI in 

economic recovery; (3) review and 

discuss reports and recommendations 

from the three sub-committees— 

Unemployment Insurance Wage 

Records, Changing Nature of Work, and 

Funding for State/Local WLMI Capacity; 

(4) discuss potential areas for future 

recommendations; and (5) comment 

period for the general public. A detailed 

agenda will be available at 

www.dol.gov/agencies/eta/wioa/wiac/ 

meetings shortly before the meetings 

commence. 

The Advisory Council will open the 

floor for public comment at 

approximately 2:30 p.m. EST on each 

meeting date and last for approximately 

10 minutes. However, that time may 

change at the WIAC Chair’s discretion.

application, processing, and disposition 

of petitions for modification of 

mandatory safety standards. Any mine 

operator or representative of miners may 

petition for an alternative method of 

complying with an existing safety 

standard. MSHA reviews the content of 

each submitted petition, assesses the 

mine in question, and ultimately issues 

a decision on the petition. This notice 

includes a list of petitions for 

modification that were granted after 

MSHA’s review and investigation, 

between December 15, 2020, and June 

30, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: Copies of the final decisions

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

Under section 101 of the Federal Mine 

Safety and Health Act of 1977, any mine 

operator or representative of miners may 

petition to use an alternative approach 

to comply with a safety standard. In 

response, the Secretary of Labor 

(Secretary) or his or her designee may 

modify the application of a mandatory 

safety standard to that mine if the 

Secretary determines that: (1) An 

alternative method exists that will 

guarantee no less protection for the 

miners affected than that provided by 

the standard; or (2) the application of 

the standard will result in a diminution 

of safety to the affected miners. 

MSHA bases the final decision on the 

petitioner’s statements, any comments 

and information submitted by interested 

persons, and a field investigation of the 

conditions at the mine. In some 

instances, MSHA may approve a 

petition for modification on the 

condition that the mine operator 

complies with other requirements noted 

in the decision. In other instances, 

MSHA may deny, dismiss, or revoke a 

petition for modification. In accordance 

with 30 CFR 44.5, MSHA publishes 

every final action granting a petition for 

modification. 

II. Granted Petitions for Modification 

On the basis of the findings of 

MSHA’s investigation, and as designee 

of the Secretary, MSHA granted or 

partially granted the petitions for 

modification below. Since the previous

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 

STEM Engagement 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 STEM 

Engagement 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 the NASA Intern 

Survey (Retrospective Survey), NASA 

Internship Applicants and Awardees 

Survey (Retrospective Survey), STEM 

Challenges Impact Surveys (Educator 

Feedback Retrospective Survey), STEM 

Challenges Impact Surveys (Parent 

Survey), and STEM Challenges Impact 

Surveys (Student Retrospective Survey). 

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 

STEM Engagement activities.
