Optional Form 301A-M (OF 301A-M): 志愿者服务协议--自然与文化资源 (Mandarin OF 301A)

Optional Form 301A-M (OF 301A-M), 志愿者服务协议--自然与文化资源, is the Mandarin Chinese version of the volunteer service agreement. GSA's page lists it as Volunteer Service Agreement - Natural and Cultural Resources (Mandarin), and the form's footer reads OF301A-M (Mandarin OF 301A) (REV. 10/2021). The footer names USDOI, USDA, USDOC and USDOD, and the header prints OMB control number 1093-0006 with a date of 10/31/2024 (终止日期). GSA hosts a copy in its forms library.

The form, written in Chinese, is an agreement between a volunteer or group leader and a federal agency for a specific volunteer activity. It has the same 46 numbered items as OF 301A: the volunteer's details, optional demographic information, an emergency contact, a section the government official completes, a parental consent for a volunteer under 18, an affirmation with signatures, and a termination block.

The burden statement estimates an average of 15 minutes per response. You can fill it out free in your browser on this page and download the result without an account.

What the agreement says

Where it goes

The PDF gives no filing address. The agency named in item 20 completes its own section, and a government representative signs for the agency.

What the agency agrees to

The form says the agency agrees, while the arrangement is in effect, to provide the materials, equipment and facilities needed for the service, and to treat the volunteer as a federal employee only for tort claims, liability and injury compensation where the volunteer group does not cover them.

Ending the agreement

The affirmation says either the government or the volunteer may cancel the agreement at any time by notifying the other party.

Time to complete

The burden statement estimates an average of 15 minutes per response, including time to review the instructions and gather the data.

Privacy

Collection and use are covered by Privacy Act System of Records INTERIOR/DOI-05 and OPM/GOVT-1, under 5 USC 552a. The form says completing it is voluntary, but not providing the information will prevent participation in the program.
