information to be collected; and
     Minimize the burden of the collection of information on

    Description: ETA seeks approval of an annual plan narrative and two 
progress reports as requirements for One Stop Occupational Employment 
Statistics Survey Information grants. This information will be used by 
the Department of Labor and its managing State partners to assure that 
a employment statistics system required by Wagner-Peyser as amended by 
the Workforce Investment Act meets the needs of its customers. States 
seeking grants are requested to provide an annual grant narrative that 
provides specific information on how the grant funds will accomplish 
any of the objectives for collecting occupational employment statistics 
consistent with the plan developed under the existing arrangement with 
the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), through the BLS Cooperative 
Agreement with the States. This will be the only request for data 
collection for this grant. Next year the activity will be administered 
by the BLS. In addition the States are requested to provide a brief 
progress report twice during the grant period which explains the 
progress of the grantee in accomplishing the plan.

Karin G. Kurz,
Acting Departmental Clearance Officer.
