SUMMARY: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13, May 
22, 1995), the U.S. Office of Personnel Management (OPM) has submitted 
to the Office of Management and Budget a request for extension of three 
previously-approved information collection forms for which approval 
will soon expire. The Establishment Information Form, the Wage Data 
Collection Form, and the Wage Data Collection Continuation Form are 
wage survey forms developed by OPM for use by the Department of Defense 
(DOD) to establish prevailing wage rates for Federal Wage System 
employees.
    DOD contacts approximately 21,200 businesses annually to determine 
the level of wages paid by private enterprise establishments for 
representative jobs common to both private industry and the Federal 
Government. Each survey collection requires 1-4 hours of respondent 
burden, resulting in a total yearly burden of approximately 75,800 
hours.
    For copies of this proposal, contact Margaret A. Miller on (202) 
606-2699, fax (202) 418-3251, or e-mail mamiller@opm.gov. Please 
include a mailing address with your request.

DATES: Submit comments on or before September 19, 2008.
