Request for Review of an Expiring

Information Collection: OPM–1386B

AGENCY: Office of Personnel

Management.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: In accordance with the

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995

(Public Law 104–13, May 22, 1995), this

notice announces that the Office of

Personnel Management (OPM) intends

to submit to the Office of Management

and Budget (OMB) a request for review

of an expiring information collection.

OPM–1386B, Applicant Race and

National Origin Questionnaire, is used

to gather information concerning the

race and national origin of applicants

for employment under the Outstanding

Scholar provision of the Luevano

Consent Decree, 93 F.R.D. 68 (1981).

Approximately 100,000 OPM–1386B

forms are completed annually. Each

form takes approximately 8 minutes to

complete. The annual estimated burden

is 13,333 hours.

Comments are particularly invited on:

whether this collection of information is

necessary for the proper performance of

functions of the Office of Personnel

Management and whether it will have

practical utility; whether our estimate of

the public burden of this collection of

information is accurate and based on

valid assumptions and methodology;

and ways in which we can minimize the

burden of the collection of information

on those who are to respond, through

the use of appropriate technological

collection techniques or other forms of

information technology.
