Respondents are State governments.
Selected standardized information pertaining to participants in WIA
Title 1B programs are collected and reported for the purposes of
general program oversight, evaluation and performance
assessment.
The hour burden diminished due
to the agency's reduction of the hours and costs for states
completing the customer satisfaction survey, since currently only
22 of 53 respondents now use it. The cost burden for respondents,
which is included in the state grants, was inadvertantly included
in earlier submissions, so it has been deleted.
