Abstract: This information collection contains program performance reports required for monitoring the Senior Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP). The current request is for approval of modified forms necessitated by the reauthorization of the SCSEP legislation (2006 Amendments to the Older Americans Act, Public Law 109-365), SCSEP Final Rule (20 CFR Part 641) and the Jobs for Veterans Act of 2002 (Public Law 07-288); an overall burden increase brought about by additional funding for additional participants; changes in overall burden for some forms based on actual usage statistics; and the requirement to publish changes to Internet-based SCSEP Performance and Results QPR (SPARQ) system that went into effect on July 1, 2010.

Short Statement: This is not a true re-instatement. OMB was unable to conclude ICR reference number 201010-1205-008 with an approval, because the collection also became intertwined with an NPRM and limitations within ROCIS; consequently, DOL withdrew the earlier request on March 15, 2011. This request reflects the non-NPRM provisions. Upon OMB clearance, DOL will make a subsequent request to incorporation the proposed rule. The overall burden has increased from the previously approved 46,146 hours to the current request for 51,179 hours due to added ARRA funding, which gave opportunities for additional participants to be included in the program. The reason this increase is not larger is that 1) the response data for the SPARQ and Customer Satisfaction Forms have been adjusted downward based on PY 2008 usage statistics, and the SPARQ forms ETA 9121 and ETA 9122 in the previously approved submission were inadvertently pegged at 11 minutes per form instead of 6 minutes per form, which is the stated estimated public burden for completing the form. The federal cost burden increased to $83,434 due in part to federal wage updates and because of the added program participants. In addition, ROCIS now reflects $2,900,000 in annual contractor costs (not included in ROCIS in the previous submission), for a total of $2,9083,434.
