    Title of Collection: Employers of National Service Enrollment Form 
and Employers of National Service Annual Survey.
    OMB Control Number: 3045-0175.
    Type of Review: Renewal and addition of second instrument.
    Respondents/Affected Public: Any organization that seeks to be or 
is an Employer of National Service program, including businesses, 
nonprofits, institutions of higher education, school districts, state/
local governments, and federal agencies.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 1,180.
    Total Estimated Number of Annual Burden Hours: 490.
    Abstract: This is a request to renew the Employers of National 
Service Enrollment Form and add an additional related instrument, the 
Employers of National Service Annual Survey. Organizations from all 
sectors either seeking to become or already established Employers of 
National Service will be filling out these forms, including businesses, 
nonprofits, institutions of higher education, school districts, state/
local governments, and federal agencies. The key purpose of the 
enrollment form is to document what the organization is committing to 
doing as an Employer of National Service and provide contact 
information to CNCS. The information gathered on the enrollment form 
will also allow CNCS to display the organization's information 
accurately online as a resource for job seekers. It will also enable 
CNCS to speak to the diversity within the program's membership, both 
for internal planning and external audience use. The purpose of the 
survey form is to track what actions an employer has taken in the past 
year, gather stories of success or impact, collect quantitative hiring 
data relating to AmeriCorps and Peace Corps alumni, and provide 
organizations with an opportunity to update their contact and location 
data. The information will be collected electronically via our website. 
CNCS also seeks to continue using the currently approved information 
collection until the revised information collection is approved by OMB. 
The currently approved information collection is due to expire on March 
31, 2019.
    Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized 
and/or included in the request for OMB approval. Comments are invited 
on: (a) Whether the collection of information is necessary for the 
proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether 
the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the 
agency's estimate of the burden of the collection of information; (c) 
ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; (d) ways to minimize the burden of the collection of 
information on respondents, including through the use of automated 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology; and (e) 
estimates of capital or start-up costs and costs of operation, 
maintenance, and purchase of services to provide information. Burden 
means the total time, effort, or financial resources expended by 
persons to generate, maintain, retain, disclose or provide information 
to or for a Federal agency. This includes the time needed to review 
instructions; to develop, acquire, install and utilize technology and 
systems for the purpose of collecting, validating and verifying 
information, processing and maintaining information, and disclosing and 
providing information; to train personnel and to be able to respond to 
a collection of information, to search data sources, to complete and 
review the collection of information; and to transmit or otherwise 
disclose the information. All written comments will be available for 
public inspection on regulations.gov.
