State Workforce Agencies (SWAs) are required by Federal regulations at 20 CFR 653.500 to participate in the intrastate and interstate clearance system for the orderly recruitment and movement of agricultural workers. Regulations 653.501(a), (b), (c) and (d) enumerate the contents of these orders. As required by Federal regulations, the Employment and Training Administration (ETA) created the Agricultural Clearance Order (ETA Form 790) for the recruitment of workers beyond the local commuting area (20 CFR 653.501). In order to participate in the temporary alien agricultural worker (H-2A) program, employers are required to submit to the SWA a job order (ETA Form 790) in the area of intended employment between 60 and 75 days before the date of need for workers.

The forms in the proposed collection for OMB No. 1205-0134 have all been modified from those in the current collection. Specific changes are noted below. The Form 790B is only used for employers who submit clearance orders requesting U.S. workers for temporary agricultural jobs, which are not attached to requests for foreign workers through the H-2A visa program (non-criteria clearance orders). • The revisions align information collection requirements with the Department’s proposed regulatory framework and continue the ongoing efforts to provide greater clarity to employers on regulatory requirements. • The revisions align information collection requirements with Wagner-Peyser Act regulations to strengthen protections for workers.
