Department of the Interior Renews Youth Conservation Corps Application and Medical History Forms (OMB Review)
AI-generated summary for informational purposes only. Not legal advice. See the original source for the authoritative text.
The U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI) has submitted a notice to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) under the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, seeking approval to renew an existing information collection without any changes. The information collection in question covers the application and medical history forms used by the Youth Conservation Corps (YCC), a federal program that employs young people in conservation work on public lands. The renewal is a routine administrative action to maintain compliance with the Paperwork Reduction Act, which requires federal agencies to periodically reauthorize information collections from the public. No modifications to the forms, eligibility criteria, or program requirements are being proposed at this time. The YCC program is administered by the DOI and provides summer employment opportunities for youth aged 15–18 on national parks, forests, and other public lands. Applicants are required to submit personal background information and medical history to ensure fitness for outdoor conservation work. Stakeholders and members of the public had the opportunity to comment on this renewal during the public notice period. The OMB will review the submission and determine whether to authorize continuation of the information collection.
