Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 42 / Friday, March 3, 2023 / Notices
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: Although the number of
persons who may qualify for pardon
under the terms of this Proclamation is
currently unknowable, the Office of the
Pardon Attorney estimate that a
potential pool of at least 20,000
applicants may apply. The application
for the certificate is simple, and will not
take long to complete, between 10 and
30 minutes. The applicants must also
provide proof of their prior convictions
or charges, which we estimate would
take anywhere between 10 minutes to
two hours of effort, including research,
phone calls, and conversations with
necessary personnel to attain the
appropriate documentation. Therefore,
the Pardon Attorney estimates that it
would take approximately 20 minutes,
but likely no longer than 2.5 hours per
individual to provide the information
necessary for the collection.
5. An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: Considering the above
projected figures, the low-end estimate
would be 20,000 × 20 minutes = 400,000
minutes, or approximately 6,667 hours
of total burden on the public. The highend estimate is 20,000 × 2.5 hours =
50,000 hours of total burden on the
public.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section
103(h) of the Federal Mine Safety and
Health Act of 1977 (Mine Act), 30 U.S.C.
813(h), authorizes MSHA to collect
information necessary to carry out its
duty in protecting the safety and health

(Ventilation plan) requires the mine
operator to prepare a written plan of the
mine ventilation system. The plan is
required to be updated at least annually.
Upon written request of the District

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The National Longitudinal Survey of
Youth 1997 (NLSY97) is a nationally
representative sample of persons who
were born in the years 1980 to 1984.
These respondents were ages 12–17
when the first round of annual
interviews began in 1997; starting with
round sixteen, the NLSY97 is conducted
on a biennial basis. Round twenty-one
interviews will occur from September
2023 to June 2024. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics (BLS) contracts with a vendor
to conduct the NLSY97. The primary
objective of the survey is to study the
transition from schooling to the
establishment of careers and families.
The longitudinal focus of this survey
requires information to be collected
from the same individuals over many
years in order to trace their education,
training, work experience, fertility,
income, and program participation.
One of the goals of the Department of
Labor (DOL) is to produce and
disseminate timely, accurate, and
relevant information about the U.S.
labor force. The BLS contributes to this
goal by gathering information about the
labor force and labor market and
disseminating it to policymakers and
the public so that participants in those
markets can make more informed, and
thus more efficient, choices.

Research based on the NLSY97
contributes to the formation of national
policy in the areas of education,
training, work experience, fertility,
income, and program participation. In
addition to the reports that the BLS
produces based on data from the
NLSY97, members of the academic
community publish articles and reports
based on NLSY97 data for the DOL and
other funding agencies. To date,
approximately 976 articles examining
NLSY97 data have been published in
scholarly journals.
The survey design provides data
gathered from the same respondents
over time to form the only dataset that
contains this type of information for this
important population group. Without
the collection of these data, an accurate
longitudinal dataset could not be
provided to researchers and
policymakers, thus adversely affecting
the DOL’s ability to perform its policyand report-making activities.
II. Current Action
The BLS seeks approval to conduct
round 21 of biennial interviews of the
NLSY97. Respondents of the NLSY97
will undergo an interview of
approximately 74 minutes during which
they will answer questions about
schooling and labor market experiences,
family relationships, and community
background.
During the fielding period for the
main round 21 interviews, no more than
2 percent of respondents will be asked
to participate in a brief validation
interview a few weeks after the initial
interview. The purpose of the validation
interview is to verify that the initial
interview took place as the interviewer
reported and to assess the data quality
of selected questionnaire items.
Round 21 will be a predominantly
telephone survey. Approximately 90
percent of interviews will be completed
by telephone, with the remaining
interviews being conducted in person.
The round 21 questionnaire will
resemble the round 20 questionnaire
with few modifications. New questions
Total
respondents

Frequency

for the round 21 questionnaire include
questions on the location of work and
job search, whether an employer
requires the signing of a non-disclosure
agreement, chronic health conditions
relating to heart conditions, blood sugar,
and high blood pressure, coronavirus
vaccine recipiency, the use of pain
medications, and adverse childhood
experiences. In addition, attempts to
streamline the questionnaire have been
made so that it will be shorter and less
burdensome for respondents. To this
end, fewer questions will be asked about
impact of the coronavirus pandemic,
and questions about the value of a job,
sexual activity and birth control,
criminal background checks, and
internet access were removed.
III. Desired Focus of Comments
The Bureau of Labor Statistics is
particularly interested in comments
that:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility.
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used.
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected.
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.

applicant for the Astronaut Candidate
Program, it is important that the ASO
have the benefit of qualitative and
quantitative information and
recommendations from persons who
have been directly associated with the
applicant over the course of their career.
