OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

 
Comment Request for Review of an Expiring Information Collection: 
Establishment Information Form, Wage Data Collection Form, Wage Data 
Collection Continuation Form DD 1918, DD 1919, and DD 1919C

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13, May 
22, 1995), the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) seeks comments on 
its intention to request Office of Management and Budget clearance of 
three currently approved information collection forms. 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 to establish prevailing 
wage rates for Federal Wage System employees.

DATES: Submit comments on or before July 25, 2005.

ADDRESSES: Send or deliver comments to Donald J. Winstead, Deputy 
Associate Director for Pay and Performance Policy, Office of Personnel 
Management, Room 7H31, 1900 E Street, NW., Washington, DC 20415-8200; 
fax (202) 606-4264; or e-mail pay-performance-policy@opm.gov.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Madeline Gonzalez, (202) 606-2838; fax 
(202) 606-4264; or e-mail pay-performance-policy@opm.gov.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Department of Defense 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.
    Comments are particularly invited on whether (1) this information 
is necessary for the proper performance of OPM functions, (2) it will 
have practical utility, (3) our estimate of the public burden of this 
collection of information is accurate and based on valid assumptions 
and methodology, and (4) ways in which we can minimize the burden of 
the collection of information on those who are to respond through the 
use of appropriate technological collection techniques or other forms 
of information technology.
