Agency Information Collection Extension Under Review by the Office of Management and Budget

Résumé

The Department of Energy (DOE) intends to extend an information collection package for a period of three years, pursuant to Section 3507(h)(1) with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. The Industrial Relations collection package, OMB Control Number 1910-0600, collects information from DOE's Facilities Management Contractors (formerly known as Management and Operating [M&O] Contractors, and Management and Operating Type [M&O Type] Contractors) concerning the management and administration of their workforce. This information is used to exercise management oversight and cost control of our contracts and the application of statutory and contractual requirements. The collection of this data is critical to the Department. It is used to ensure that the contractors satisfy their contractual obligations; contract funds are expended as intended; and to detect and eliminate fraud, waste, and abuse. The data collected involves contractor equal employment opportunity and affirmative action program information.
