ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Labor (DOL) hereby announces the submission 
of the Employment and Training Administration (ETA) sponsored 
information collection request (ICR) revision titled, ``YouthBuild 
Reporting System,'' to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for 
review and approval for use in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13, 44 U.S.C. chapter 35).

DATES: Submit comments on or before May 18, 2012.

ADDRESSES: A copy of this ICR, with applicable supporting 
documentation; including a description of the likely respondents, 
proposed frequency of response, and estimated total burden may be 
obtained from the RegInfo.gov Web site, http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain or by contacting Michel Smyth by telephone at 202-693-4129

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: YouthBuild grantees collect and report 
selected standardized information pertaining to customers in YouthBuild 
programs for the purposes of general program oversight, evaluation, and 
performance assessment. The ETA provides all grantees with a YouthBuild 
management information system to use for collecting participant data 
and for preparing and submitting the required quarterly reports. This 
is a request to extend the reporting and recordkeeping requirements of 
the YouthBuild program and to add an additional section to an existing 
form to enable the collection of information on the number of 
affordable housing units built or renovated by YouthBuild participants.
    The YouthBuild Reporting System is an information collection 
subject to the PRA. A Federal agency generally cannot conduct or 
sponsor a collection of information, and the public is generally not 
required to respond to an information collection, unless it is 
currently approved by the OMB under the PRA and displays a currently 
valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any other 
provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for 
failing to comply with a collection of information if the collection of 
information does not display a currently valid OMB control number. See 
5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this 
information collection under OMB Control Number 1205-0464. The current 
OMB approval is scheduled to expire on April 30, 2014. New information 
collection requirements would take effect only upon OMB approval of the 
ICR.
    For additional information, see the related notice published in the 
Federal Register on September 8, 2011 (76 FR 55707).
    Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, 
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in 
the ADDRESSES section within 30 days of publication of this notice in 
the Federal Register. In order to ensure appropriate consideration, 
comments should reference OMB Control Number 1205-0464. The OMB is 
particularly interested in comments that:
     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 clarity 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,
