SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 3506 of the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) requires that the Office of Management 
and Budget (OMB) provide interested Federal agencies and the public an 
early opportunity to comment on information collection requests. OMB 
may amend or waive the requirement for public consultation to the 
extent that public participation in the approval process would defeat 
the purpose of the information collection, violate State or Federal 
law, or substantially interfere with any agency's ability to perform 
its statutory obligations. The Director of the Information Resources 
Management Group publishes this notice containing proposed information 
collection requests prior to submission of these requests to OMB. Each 
proposed information collection, grouped by office, contains the 
following: (1) Type of review requested, e.g., new, revision, 
extension, existing or reinstatement; (2) Title; (3) Summary of the 
collection; (4) Description of the need for, and proposed use of, the 
information; (5) Respondents and frequency of collection; and (6) 
Reporting and/or Recordkeeping burden. OMB invites public comment at 
the address specified above. Copies of the requests are available from 
Patrick J. Sherrill at the address specified above.

    Type of Review: New.
    Title: School-to-Work Progress Measures.
    Frequency: Annually.
    Affected Public: Not-for-profit institutions; State, local or 
Tribal Gov't, SEAs or LEAs.
    Reporting and Recordkeeping Burden:
    Responses: 1,025
    Burden Hours: 6,800
    Abstract: The Progress Measures Survey focuses on four elements of 
Title IV, Section 402 of the School-to-Work Opportunities Act: student 
participation in school-to-work; institutional and employer 
participation; leveraging of funds; and outcomes. The participation 
measures are designed to track elaboration of local partnership School-
to-Work (STW) systems; the leveraging measures are intended to capture 
efforts to develop sources of funding that will enable STW to be self-
sustaining after sunset of the legislation; and the outcomes measures 
are indicators of achievement of the Act's primary goals. These data, 
collected on a regular basis, will provide important evidence of state 
and local partnership commitments to the legislative mandate.
