Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: DOL, as 

part of continuing efforts to reduce 

paperwork and respondent burden, 

conducts a pre-clearance consultation 

program to provide the general public 

and Federal agencies an opportunity to 

comment on proposed and/or 

continuing collections of information 

before submitting them to the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) for final 

approval. This program helps to ensure 

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 can be properly assessed. 

Section 236(a)(2)(D) of the Trade Act 

of 1974, as amended (Act), requires the 

Secretary to establish procedures for the 

distribution of funds remaining after the 

initial distribution under Section 

236(a)(2)(B)(i). Section 241 of the Trade 

Act of 1974, as amended, requires the 

Secretary of Labor to certify to the 

Secretary of the Treasury amounts 

necessary for each cooperating state to 

provide services and make payments 

under the Act. As such, states may 

request reserve funds to cover the costs 

of training, job search allowances and 

relocation allowances, employment and 

case management services, and state 

administration of these benefits before 

DOL issues the final distribution of state 

allocations. Reserve funds are 

distributed to states in accordance with 

20 CFR 618.920 on an as-needed basis 

in response to requests to provide 

monies to those states that experience 

large, unexpected layoffs, or otherwise 

have financial needs that are not met by 

their initial allocation. These funds are 

requested using the Form ETA–9117. 

Section 236(a)(2)(D) of the Trade Act of 

1974, as amended, authorizes this 

information collection. 

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 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. 

Interested parties are encouraged to 

provide comments to the contact shown 

in the ADDRESSES section. Comments 

must be written to receive 

consideration, and they will be 

summarized and included in the request 

for OMB approval of the final ICR. In 

order to help ensure appropriate 

consideration, comments should 

mention OMB Control Number 1205– 

0275. 

Submitted comments will also be a 

matter of public record for this ICR and 

posted on the internet, without 

redaction. DOL encourages commenters 

not to include personally identifiable 

information, confidential business data, 

or other sensitive statements/ 

information in any comments. 

DOL 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).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 

408(a) of the Employee Retirement 

Income Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) 

gives the Secretary of Labor the 

authority to ‘‘grant a conditional or 

unconditional exemption of any 

fiduciary or transaction, or class of 

fiduciaries or transactions, from all or 

part of the restrictions imposed by 

sections 406 and 407(a).’’ In order to 

grant an exemption under section 408, 

the Department must determine that the 

exemption is: (1) Administratively 

feasible; (2) in the interests of the plan 

and its participants and beneficiaries; 

and, (3) protective of the rights of the 

participants and beneficiaries of such 

plan. The three prohibited transaction 

class exemptions (PTEs) included in 

this ICR, (1) PTE 76–1, (2) PTE 77–10, 

and (3) PTE 78–6, exempt certain types 

of transactions commonly entered into 

by ‘‘multiemployer’’ plans from certain 

of the prohibitions contained in sections 

406(a) and 407(a) of ERISA. The 

Department determined that, in the 

absence of these exemptions, the 

affected plans would not be able to 

operate efficiently or to enter into 

routine types of transactions necessary 

for their operations. For additional 

substantive information about this ICR, 

see the related notice published in the 

Federal Register on December 13, 2021 

(86 FR 70866). 

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 the OMB 

approves it 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 OMB Control Number. 

See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. 

DOL seeks PRA authorization for this 

information collection for three (3) 

years. OMB authorization for an ICR 

cannot be for more than three (3) years 

without renewal. The DOL notes that 

information collection requirements 

submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

The NASA Contractor Financial 

Management Reporting System is the 

basic financial medium for contractor 

reporting of estimated and incurred 

costs, providing essential data for 

projecting costs and hours to ensure that 

contractor performance is realistically 

planned and supported by dollar and 

labor resources. The data provided by 

these reports is an integral part of the 

Agency’s accrual accounting and costbased budgeting system. Respondents 

are reimbursed for associated cost to 

provide the information, per their 

negotiated contract price and associated 

terms of the contract. There are no ‘‘total 

capital and start-up’’ or ‘‘total operation 

and maintenance and purchase of 

services’’ costs associated since NASA 

policy requires that data reported is 

generated from the contractors’ existing 

system. The contractors’ internal 

management system shall be relied 

upon to the maximum extent possible. 

II. Methods of Collection 

NASA collects this information 

electronically and that is the preferred 

manner, however information may also 

be collected via mail or fax. 

III. Data

Management Reports. 

OMB Number: 2700–0003.
