SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Paperwork Reduction Act Approval On November 4, 1998, OFCCP published a final rule (63 FR 59630) revising its regulations at 41 CFR part 60-250 implementing the affirmative action provisions of the Vietnam Era Veterans' Readjustment Assistance Act of 1974, as amended, 38 U.S.C. 4212 (VEVRAA). VEVRAA requires Government contractors and subcontractors to take affirmative action to employ and advance in employment qualified special disabled veterans, veterans of the Vietnam era, and other designated veterans. OFCCP reviewed the collection of information aspects of the rule in accordance with the PRA and OMB implementing regulations published at 5 CFR part 1320. OFCCP believes that the rule will not result in an increase in paperwork burdens from what was previously required by the OFCCP regulations. In accordance with the PRA, OFCCP submitted to OMB the information collection requirements contained in the rule. OMB approved the information collection requirements in the rule as revisions to existing PRA control numbers 1215-0163 (Construction) and 1215-0072 (Supply and Service). In accordance with OMB recommendations, 5 CFR 1320.3(f)(3), OFCCP publishes a single table in 41 CFR part 60-999 that lists the OMB- assigned control numbers for information collection requirements contained in OFCCP rules. The list of OMB-assigned control numbers published at 41 CFR Part 60-999 is republished and remains unchanged. List of Subjects in 41 CFR Part 60-999 Reporting and recordkeeping requirements.
