This information collection contains
program performance reports required for monitoring the Senior
Community Service Employment Program (SCSEP). The current request
is for an extension with the addition of a request for approval of
an additional participant data indicator: participants' volunteer
efforts.
The overall burden has
increased slightly to 53,346 hours due to added burden for the Exit
Form ETA-9123 - which collects data for the added indicator on
volunteer work, and a calculation adjustment for one of the forms
from 6 minutes to 10 minutes in burden (ETA-9124A). The federal
cost burden increased to $83,434 due in part to federal wage
updates and because of the added program participants. In addition,
note that ROCIS now also reflects $2,900,000 in annual contractor
costs (not included in ROCIS in the previous submission), for a
total of $2,984,573.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
