RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD
Proposed Collection; Comment
Request
Summary: In accordance with the
requirement of Section 3506 (c)(2)(A) of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
which provides opportunity for public
comment on new or revised data
collections, the Railroad Retirement
Board (RRB) will publish periodic
summaries of proposed data collections.
Comments are invited on: (a) Whether
the proposed information collection is
necessary for the proper performance of
the functions of the agency, including
whether the information has practical
utility; (b) the accuracy of the RRB’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of the information; (c) ways to enhance
the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (d)
ways to minimize the burden related to
the collection of information on
respondents, including the use of
automated collection techniques or
other forms of information technology.
Title and Purpose of information
collection: Supplemental Information on
Accident and Insurance; OMB 3220–
0036.
Under section 12(o) of the Railroad
Unemployment Insurance Act (RUIA),
the Railroad Retirement Board is
entitled to reimbursement of the
sickness benefits paid to a railroad
employee if the employee receives a
sum or damages for the same infirmity
for which the benefits are paid. Section
2(f) of the RUIA requires employers to
reimburse the RRB for days in which
salary, wages, pay for time lost or other
remuneration is later determined to be
payable. Reimbursements under section
2(f) generally result from the award of
pay for time lost or the payment of
guaranteed wages. The RUIA prescribes
that the amount of benefits paid be
deducted and held by the employer in
a special fund for reimbursement to the
RRB.
The RRB currently utilizes Form(s)
SI–1c, (Supplemental Information on
Accident and Insurance), SI–5 (Report
of Payments to Employee Claiming
Sickness Benefits Under the RUIA), ID–
3s (Request for Lien Information), ID–
3s–1, (Lien Information Under Section
12(o) of the RUIA), ID–3u (Request for
Section 2(f) Information), ID–30k (Form
Letter Asking Claimant for Additional
Information on Injury or Illness), and
ID–30k–1 (Request for Supplemental
Information on Injury or Illness-3rd
Party), to obtain the necessary
information from claimants and railroad
employers. The RRB proposes a minor
change to Form ID–3s to add an
‘‘information only’’, column.
Completion is required to obtain
benefits. One response is requested of
each respondent.
