I. Abstract
This information collection is
mandated by Congress through Public
Law 102–477, Indian Employment,
Training and Related Services
Demonstration Act (Act) of 1992,
section, 17. The Act requires the
Secretary to develop, maintain and
publish, not less than biennially, a
consolidated report on the population
by gender, income level, age, and
availability for work. The consolidated
report will be submitted to the Senate
Indian Affairs Committee, as required
by the Act and other Federal agencies.
The consolidated report will also be
available to Indian tribes and the
general public, upon request.
The OMB Control Number for this
information collection is 1076–0147.
Approval for this information collection
expired on July 31, 2008, while BIA was
revising the report to make it more
accurate; therefore, the BIA is
submitting the information collection
for reinstatement. A request for
comments on this information
collection request appeared in the
Federal Register on Tuesday, September
16, 2008 (73 FR 53441). No comments
were received in response to the
announcement.
II. Request for Comments
The BIA requests that you send your
comments on this collection to the two
locations listed in the ADDRESSES
section. Your comments should address:
(a) The necessity of this information
collection for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden (hours
and cost) of the collection of
information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
(c) ways we could enhance the quality,
utility and clarity of the information to
be collected; and (d) ways we could
minimize the burden of the collection of
the information on the respondents,
such as through the use of automated
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Please note that an agency may not
sponsor or request and an individual
need not respond to, a collection of
information unless it has a valid OMB
Control Number.
