    The Department of Labor has submitted the following information 
collection request (ICR), utilizing emergency review procedures 
specified in 5 CFR 1320.13, for the Office of Management and Budget 
(OMB) review and clearance in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13, 44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). OMB approval has 
been requested by June 19, 2007. A copy of this ICR, with applicable 
supporting documentation, from RegInfo.gov at http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain or by contacting Darrin King on 202-693-4129 (this is

    Comments and questions about the ICR listed below should be 
submitted to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Attn: 
OMB Desk Officer for the Department of Labor, Office of Management and 
Budget, Room 10235, Washington, DC 20503 (202-395-7316) (this is not a 
toll-free number), and received 5 days prior to the requested OMB 
approval date.
    The Office of Management and Budget is particularly interested in 
comments which:
     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 clarify 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 submissions of responses.
    Agency: Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration and 
Management.
    Title: Contractor Data Collection Form.
    OMB Number: 1225-0NEW.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Affected Public: Individuals.
    Number of Respondents: 5,000.
    Estimated Time per Respondent: 12 minutes.

    Total Burden Cost (capital/startup): $0.

    Description: Under Homeland Security Presidential Directive 12 
(HSPD-12), federal agencies are required to comply with a standard for 
identification issued to Federal employees and contractors known as 
FIPS-201 Personal Identity Verification (PIV) of Federal Employees and 
Contractors. In order to comply with the directive and issue the new 
federal credential to contractor personnel, the DOL must collect 
certain data required for the creation of an applicant record in its 
Personal Identity Verification II (PIV-II) system and for issuance of 
the PIV-II badge.
    The information will be used to determine suitability for the 
issuance of DOL credentials. The information will be used to identity 
proof and register applicants as part of the Personal Identity 
Verification process. Providing this information is voluntary; however, 
failure to submit this information may result in denial of a DOL 
credential. Without this form, DOL contractors are not reviewed with 
the same rigor applied to its Federal staff with respect to HSPD-12/
PIV-II credentialing standards.

Edward C. Hugler,
Deputy Assistant Secretary for Administration and Management.
