The "OFCCP
Complaint Form" is approved through October 1989. DOL's
justification for lowering the burden estimate for this collection
is inadequate, however, and is denied. The Department claims that
previo revisions to the form have reduced the burden. After
reviewing the previous paperwork submission, however, OMB has
determined that these revisions consisted primarily of reformatting
the instrument rather th eliminating data elements. Since OMB does
not believe that any burden reduction has been achieved by this
effort, we have maintained the original burden estimate of 1.16
hours per response. Thus, the total burden estimate for this
collection is now 3,727 hours. Of course, DOL may at any time
submit a new paperwork package further justifying its original
burden estimate.
