DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Proposed Information Collection Request Submitted for Public 
Comment and Recommendations; Forms for Agricultural Recruitment System

AGENCY: Employment and Training Administration, Labor.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to 
reduce paperwork and respondent burden conducts a preclearance 
consultation program to provide the general public and Federal agencies 
with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing 
collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (PRA95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program helps to 
ensure that 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 on respondents can be properly assessed. 
Currently, the Employment and Training Administration is soliciting 
comments concerning the proposed extension of the information 
collection of the Agricultural and Food Processing Clearance Order, 
Form ETA-790, Agricultural and Food Processing Clearance Memorandum, 
Form ETA-795, Migrant Worker Itinerary, Form ETA-785, and Job Service 
Manifest Record, Form ETA-785A.
    A copy of the proposed information collection request can be 
obtained by contacting the employee listed below in the contact section 
of this notice.

DATES: Written comments must be submitted on or before February 12, 
1996. Written comments should 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 automated, electronic, mechanical, or other 
technological collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses.

ADDRESS: David L. Webb, U.S. Employment Service, Employment and 
Training Administration, Department of Labor, Room N-4470, 200 
Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20210, 202-219-5174 (this is 
not a toll-free number).

I. Background

    The Migrant and Seasonal Farmworker regulations at 20 CFR 653.500 
establish procedures for agricultural clearance activity. Federal 
regulations at 20 CFR 653.501 (f) (1) require all local offices to use 
the interstate clearance forms, as prescribed by ETA.
    Local and State Employment offices use the Agricultural and Food 
Processing Clearance Order to extend job orders beyond their 
jurisdictions. Applicant holding local offices use the Agricultural 
Clearance Memorandum to give notice of action on a clearance order, 
request additional information, report results, and to accept or reject 
the extended job order. State agencies use the Migrant Worker Itinerary 
to transmit employment and supportive service information to labor-
demand areas, and to assist migrant workers in obtaining employment. 
The Job Service Manifest Record shows names, addresses, and 
characteristics of all people named on the Migrant Worker Itinerary.

II. Current Actions

    This is a request for OMB approval under the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3506 (c) (2) (A) of an extension to an existing
