SUMMARY: The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) offers the general 
public and other Federal agencies the opportunity to comment on an 
extension of an already existing information collection request (ICR) 
3206-0001, Application for 10-Point Veterans' Preference. As required 
by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13, 44 U.S.C. 
chapter 35), as amended by the Clinger-Cohen Act (Pub. L. 104-106), OPM 
is soliciting comments for this collection on behalf of the Office of 
Management and Budget. The information collection was previously 
published in the Federal Register on June 14, 2010, at 75 FR 33657 
allowing for a 60-day public comment period. One agency provided 
suggested changes to the form which are outside the scope of this 
notice. The purpose of this notice is to allow an additional 30 days 
for public comments. The Office of Management and Budget is 
particularly interested in comments that:
    1. 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;
    2. 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;
    3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and
    4. 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.

DATES: Comments are encouraged and will be accepted until September 29, 
2010. This process is conducted in accordance with 5 CFR 1320.1.
