Fax: 202-395-6974 (these are not toll-free numbers), e-mail: OIRA_
submission@omb.eop.gov within 30 days from the date of this publication 
in the Federal Register. In order to ensure the appropriate 
consideration, comments should reference the OMB Control Number (see 
below).
    The OMB is particularly interested in comments which:
     Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
     Evaluate the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the 
burden of the proposed collection of information, including the 
validity of the methodology and assumptions used;
     Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
     Minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate 
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting 
electronic submission of responses.
    Agency: Veterans' Employment and Training Service.
    Type of Review: New Collection (Request for a new OMB Control 
Number).
    Title of Collection: Veteran Employment Outcomes Study.
    OMB Control Number: 1293-0NEW.
    Affected Public: Individuals or Households.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 1,068.

    Description: The purpose of this study is to learn more about 
veteran users of One-Stop Career Centers who do not appear to have had 
successful employment outcomes. The survey data collected will help 
determine to what extent the apparent lack of successful outcomes for 
veteran job seekers, as measured by the participating states. Further, 
this collection will allow DOL to learn key characteristics and reasons 
why some veterans have difficulty or fail to find jobs, learn what 
services were received and what veterans thought of them, and learn 
what services were not received and whether they were needed. For 
additional information, see related notice published at 73 FR 11956 on 
March 5, 2008.
