🇬🇧 English

NASA has published a public notice inviting comments on the proposed continuation of its Complaint of Discrimination Form 1355P, as required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA). This form is used by individuals who wish to file a formal complaint of discrimination against NASA, enabling the agency to collect standardized information necessary to process civil rights complaints. The notice is part of NASA's ongoing effort to reduce administrative burden on respondents and streamline its information collection processes. By soliciting public and interagency feedback, NASA aims to evaluate whether the form remains necessary, accurate, and as minimally burdensome as possible. Members of the general public, advocacy organizations, and other federal agencies are encouraged to submit comments regarding the utility, clarity, and burden estimate of the form. Typical PRA notices allow a 60-day comment window before the collection is submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for approval.
