OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 09/07/2000
Retrieve Notice of Action (NOA)	Date Received in OIRA: 06/30/2000
Terms of Clearance: OMB is very disappointed that the implementation of a new report system was not accomplished in PY 2000 as expected. OMB expects that DOL will implement the new Program Reporting System no later than July 1, 2001 as is currently planned, and the terms of clearance from 07/01/99 continue to apply. In the new system, DOL will complete the transition from the DOT to the O*Net (if it is operational), transition from SIC to the NAICS format, and implement the new SOC. However, this collection is approved under the condition that the new categories for race and ethnicity be implemented immediately. Again, all of the other changes should occur simultaneously so that burden to respondents can be minimized. Because OMB expects that the new system will be up and running by 07/01/2001, this collection is only approved through 06/30/2001.
