Terms of Clearance: THIS REQUEST FOR CLEARANCE IS APPROVED FOR USE THROUGH JUNE 1987 SUBJECT TO THE FOLLOWING LIMITATIONS: 1- SF 424 is designed to serve as a cover sheet and provide all necessary cover sheet information. The BLS designed cover sheet is therefore redundant, and is specifically disapproved. 2- OMB has repeatedly asked the Department to provide information about how it plans to use, and the purpose to which it will put, information about planned pay riases and ADP planning. The Department has not responded to these requests. Accordingly, these elements of the Department's clearance request are not approved and those parts of the collection of information may not be implemented. OMB will accept and consider a resubmission requesting clearance of these elements. Such resubmission must describe the purpose, need, and use for these infomation elements. The burden continues to be carried at 2,010 hours because the Department has not explained the basis for the estimated reduction.
