The exact information collected is determined by the state. This information is essential to the operation of the labor exchange function within states' One-Stop systems, and it is normally collected as part of the job matching referral and placement process. At a minimum, states collect information in order to comply with the regulations at 20 CFR part 652, and the Wagner-Peyser Act, as amended. The requirement to retain information under 20 CFR 652.8(d)(5) is as follows: “Each state shall retain basic documents for the minimum period specified below: work application: one year job orders: one year.” II. Desired Focus of Comments Currently, the Employment & Training Administration is soliciting comments concerning the proposed extension of Work Application/Job Orders Recordkeeping in order to: • 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; and • 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.
