addition, as the referenced report, 

Senate Report 112–176, was a report on 

proposed but never enacted legislation 

we disagree that it provides evidence of 

Congress’ intent on this matter. 

The same commenter expressed their 

opinion that Treasure Lake has not been 

on its Performance Improvement Plan 

(PIP) for sufficient time to make 

performance improvement. OJC 

disagrees that additional time and 

resources will lead to improved 

performance. Despite having been on a 

PIP and having received assistance for at 

least the past two years, Treasure Lake’s 

performance has dramatically 

decreased. Between PY 2011 and PY 

2013, Treasure Lake’s OMS score has 

decreased more than 18 percentage 

points, from 94.5% to 76%. To OJC, this 

performance decline indicates that 

additional resources should not be 

expended to attempt to improve 

performance. Balanced against the lost 

opportunity for current and future 

students to attend a higher performing 

center, OJC believes that closing 

Treasure Lake achieves the best 

outcome for the program. 

Several commenters generally 

expressed their opinion, based on their 

experience at the center, the 

opportunities that the center provides 

for troubled youth, and the impact that 

the center has on the broader 

community, that Job Corps should not 

close Treasure Lake. The core mission of 

Job Corps is to train students to become 

more employable, responsible, and 

productive citizens, and we believe that 

we will advance this mission by closing 

Treasure Lake and enhancing 

opportunities for current and future 

students at higher performing centers. 

Finally, one comment was received 

that is outside the scope of the 

requested response, and was therefore 

not considered. 

Job Corps Center Selected for Closure 

and the Closure Process 

Based on its application of the closure 

methodology as described in the August 

27, 2014, Federal Register Notice and 

OJC’s consideration of the comments 

received in response to the August 27, 

2014, Federal Register Notice, OJC has 

decided to close the Treasure Lake Job 

Corps Center. 

OJC will implement the closure 

process following the center closure 

requirements in WIA section 159(g) and 

other applicable requirements.

October 2014.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The Department of Labor, as part of its 

continuing effort to reduce paperwork 

and respondent (i.e., employer) burden, 

conducts a preclearance consultation 

program to provide the public with an 

opportunity to comment on proposed 

and continuing information collection 

requirements in accord with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(PRA–95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This 

program ensures that information is in 

the desired format, reporting burden 

(time and costs) is minimal, collection 

instruments are clearly understood, and 

OSHA’s estimate of the information 

collection burden is accurate. The 

Occupational Safety and Health Act of 

1970 (the OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et 

seq.) authorizes information collection 

by employers as necessary or 

appropriate for enforcement of the OSH 

Act or for developing information 

regarding the causes and prevention of 

occupational injuries, illnesses, and 

accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act 

also requires that OSHA obtain such 

information with minimum burden 

upon employers, especially those 

operating small businesses, and to 

reduce to the maximum extent feasible 

unnecessary duplication of efforts in 

obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657). 

The VTL Standard for Marine 

Terminals (29 CFR part 1917) specifies 

the following collection of information 

requirements. The purpose of each of 

these requirements is to provide
