Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 193 / Wednesday, October 6, 2010 / Notices
Comments are particularly invited on:
Whether this collection of information
is necessary for the proper performance
of functions of the Office of Personnel
Management, and whether it will have
practical utility; whether our estimate of
the public burden of this collection of
information is accurate, and based on
valid assumptions and methodology;
and ways in which we can minimize the
burden of the collection of information
on those who are to respond, through
the use of appropriate technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology.
Approximately 8,000 reports of
missing payments are processed each
year. Of these, we estimate that 7,800
are reports of missing checks.
Approximately 200 reports of missing
checks are reported using RI 38–31 and
7,600 are reported by telephone. A
response time of ten minutes per form
reporting a missing check is estimated;
the same amount of time is needed to
report the missing checks or electronic
funds transfer (EFT) payments using the
telephone. The annual burden for
reporting missing checks is 1,300 hours.
The remaining 200 reports relate to EFT
payments. No missing EFT payments
are reported using RI 38–31. The annual
burden for reporting missing EFT
payments is 33 hours. The total burden
is 1,333 hours.
