basic class of controlled substance listed
in schedule II.
The company plans to manufacture
the listed controlled substance in bulk
for distribution to its customers.
By correspondence dated March 19,
2008, the company has requested that
Hydrocodone (9193) be removed as a
bulk drug manufacturing code for the
company.
No comments or objections have been
received. DEA has considered the
factors in 21 U.S.C. 823(a) and
determined that the registration of JFC
Technologies, LLC, to manufacture the
listed basic class of controlled substance
is consistent with the public interest at
this time. DEA has investigated JFC
Technologies, LLC, to ensure that the
company’s registration is consistent
with the public interest. The
investigation has included inspection
and testing of the company’s physical
security systems, verification of the
company’s compliance with state and
local laws, and a review of the
company’s background and history.
Therefore, pursuant to 21 U.S.C. 823,
and in accordance with 21 CFR 1301.33,
the above named company is granted
registration as a bulk manufacturer of
the basic class of controlled substance
listed.

ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: 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) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. 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. Currently, the
Employment Standards Administration
is soliciting comments concerning its
proposal to extend OMB approval of the
following information collection: FECA
Medical Report Forms (CA–16, CA–17,
CA–20, CA–1087, CA–1090, CA–1303,
CA–1305, CA–1331, CA–1332, QCM
Letters, OWCP–5a, OWCP–5b, and
OWCP–5c) and Claim for Compensation
(CA–7). A copy of the proposed
information collection request can be
obtained by contacting the office listed
below in the addresses section of this
Notice.
Written comments must be
submitted to the office listed in the
addresses section below on or before
June 16, 2008.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background: The Office of Workers’
Compensation Programs (OWCP)
administers the Federal Employees’
Compensation Act (FECA), (5 U.S.C.
8101, et seq.), which provides for the
payment of benefits for wage loss and/
or permanent impairment arising from
work related injury or disease to a
scheduled member. The act outlines the
elements of pay to be included in an
individual’s pay rate, and sets forth
various other criteria for determining
eligibility and amount of benefits,
including augmentation of basic
compensation for individuals with
dependents. The act also requires
reports of any earnings during a period
for which compensation is claimed,
prohibits concurrent receipt of FECA
benefits and benefits from the Office of
Personnel Management (OPM) and
certain Veterans Administration (VA)
benefits, and mandates that money
collected from a liable third party found
responsible for the injury for which
compensation has been paid be applied
to benefits paid or payable. Medical
evidence is required to show that the
claimant’s disability is causally related
DATES:
to the claimant’s federal employment.
As each claim ages, there is a continuing
need for updated information to support
continuing benefits. The FECA Medical
Report Forms collect medical
information from physicians that are
necessary to determine entitlement to
benefits under the act. The CA–7, Claim
for Compensation requests information
from the injured worker regarding pay
rate, dependents, earnings, dual
benefits, and third party information.
This information collection is currently
approved for use through October 31,
2008.
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 for the
extension of this currently approved
information collection in order to carry
out its statutory responsibility to
compensate injured employees under
the provisions of the Act.
Type of Review: Extension.
Agency: Employment Standards
Administration.
