Proposed Renewal of Existing
Collection; Comment Request
ACTION:
Notice.
Currently, the Office of
Workers’ Compensation Programs is
soliciting comments concerning the
proposed collection: Agreement and
Undertaking (OWCP–1). A copy of the
proposed information collection request
can be obtained by contacting the office
listed below in the addresses section of
this Notice. This program helps to
ensure that requested data can be
provided in the desired format,
reporting burden (time and financial
resources) is minimized, collection
instruments are clearly understood, and
the impact of collection requirements on
respondents can be properly assessed.
DATES: You may submit comments by
mail, delivery service, or by hand to Ms.
Yoon Ferguson, U.S. Department of
Labor, 200 Constitution Ave. NW.,
Room S–3323, Washington, DC 20210;

Please note that comments submitted
after the comment period will not be
considered.
The
Department of Labor, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, conducts a
preclearance consultation program to
provide the general public and Federal
agencies with an opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing collections of information in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95).
I. Background: Coal mine operators
desiring to be self-insurers are required
by law (30 U.S.C. 933 BL) to produce
security by way of an indemnity bond,
security deposit, a letter of credit, or
501(c)(21) trust. Once a company’s
application to become self-insured is
reviewed by the Division of Coal Mine
Workers’ Compensation (DCMWC) and
it is determined the company is
potentially eligible, an amount of
security is determined to guarantee the
payment of benefits required by the Act.
The OWCP–1 form is executed by the
self-insurer who agrees to abide by the
Department’s rules and authorizes the
Secretary, in the event of default, to file
suit to secure payment from a bond
underwriter or in the case of a Federal
Reserve account, to sell the securities
for the same purpose. A company
cannot be authorized to self-insure until
this requirement is met. Regulations
establishing this requirement are at 20
CFR 726.110 for Black Lung. This
information collection is currently
approved for use through January 31,
2018.
II. Review Focus: The Department of
Labor is particularly interested in
comments which:
* 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.

III. Current Actions: The Department
of Labor seeks the approval of the
extension of this currently approved
information collection in order to
determine if a coal mine company is
potentially eligible to become selfinsured. The information is reviewed to
insure that the correct amounts of
negotiable securities are deposited or
indemnity bond is purchased and that
in a case of default OWCP has the
authority to utilize the securities or
bond. If this Agreement and
Undertaking were not required, OWCP
would not be empowered to utilize the
company’s security deposit to meet its
financial responsibilities for the
payment of black lung benefits in case
of default.
Type of Review: Extension.
Agency: Office of Workers’
Compensation Programs.
Title: Agreement and Undertaking.
OMB Number: 1240–0039.
Agency Number: OWCP–1.
Affected Public: Businesses or other
for-profit.
Total Respondents: 17.
Total Responses: 17.
Time per Response: 15 minutes.
Estimated Total Burden Hours: 4.
Total Burden Cost (capital/startup):
$0.
Total Burden Cost (operating/
maintenance): $9.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be summarized and/or
included in the request for Office of
Management and Budget approval of the
information collection request; they will
also become a matter of public record.

NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS
ADMINISTRATION
[NARA–2017–060]
Records Schedules; Availability and
Request for Comments
National Archives and Records
Administration (NARA).
ACTION: Notice of availability of
proposed records schedules; request for
comments.
AGENCY:
The National Archives and
Records Administration (NARA)
publishes notice at least once monthly
of certain Federal agency requests for
records disposition authority (records
schedules). Once approved by NARA,
records schedules provide mandatory
instructions on what happens to records
when agencies no longer need them for
current Government business. The
records schedules authorize agencies to
preserve records of continuing value in
the National Archives of the United
States and to destroy, after a specified
period, records lacking administrative,
legal, research, or other value. NARA
publishes notice in the Federal Register
for records schedules in which agencies
propose to destroy records they no
longer need to conduct agency business.
NARA invites public comments on such
records schedules.
DATES: NARA must receive requests for
copies in writing by September 25,
2017. Once NARA finishes appraising
the records, we will send you a copy of
the schedule you requested. We usually
prepare appraisal memoranda that
contain additional information
concerning the records covered by a
proposed schedule. You may also
request these. If you do, we will also
provide them once we have completed
the appraisal. You have 30 days after we
send to you these requested documents
in which to submit comments.
ADDRESSES: You may request a copy of
any records schedule identified in this
notice by contacting Records Appraisal
and Agency Assistance (ACRA) using
one of the following means:
Mail: NARA (ACRA); 8601 Adelphi
Road; College Park, MD 20740–6001.
Email: request.schedule@nara.gov.
Fax: 301–837–3698.

name of the agency that submitted the

would like an appraisal report, please
include that in your request.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Margaret Hawkins, Director, by mail at
Records Appraisal and Agency
Assistance (ACRA); National Archives
and Records Administration; 8601
Adelphi Road; College Park, MD 20740–
6001, by phone at (301) 837–1799, or by
email at request.schedule@nara.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NARA
publishes notice in the Federal Register
for records schedules they no longer
need to conduct agency business. NARA
invites public comments on such
records schedules, as required by 44
U.S.C. 3303a(a).
Each year, Federal agencies create
billions of records on paper, film,
magnetic tape, and other media. To
control this accumulation, agency
records managers prepare schedules
proposing records retention periods and
submit these schedules for NARA’s
approval. These schedules provide for
timely transfer into the National
Archives of historically valuable records
and authorize the agency to dispose of
all other records after the agency no
longer needs them to conduct its
business. Some schedules are
comprehensive and cover all the records
of an agency or one of its major
subdivisions. Most schedules, however,
cover records of only one office or
program or a few series of records. Many
of these update previously approved
schedules, and some include records
proposed as permanent.
The schedules listed in this notice are
media neutral unless otherwise
specified. An item in a schedule is
media neutral when an agency may
apply the disposition instructions to
records regardless of the medium in
which it creates or maintains the
records. Items included in schedules
submitted to NARA on or after
December 17, 2007, are media neutral
unless the item is expressly limited to
a specific medium. (See 36 CFR
1225.12(e).)
Agencies may not destroy Federal
records without Archivist of the United
States’ approval. The Archivist approves
destruction only after thoroughly
considering the records’ administrative
use by the agency of origin, the rights
of the Government and of private people
directly affected by the Government’s
activities, and whether or not the
records have historical or other value.
In addition to identifying the Federal
agencies and any subdivisions
requesting disposition authority, this
notice lists the organizational unit(s)
