901 et seq.), which provides benefits to
coal miners totally disabled due to
pneumoconiosis, and their surviving
dependents. When the DCMWC makes a
preliminary analysis of a claimant’s
eligibility for benefits, and if a coal mine
operator has been identified as
potentially liable for payment of those
benefits, the responsible operator is
notified of the preliminary analysis.
Regulations require that a coal mine
operator be identified and notified of
potential liability as early in the
adjudication process as possible. Forms
CM–2790 and CM–2970 are used for
claims filed after January 19, 2001, and
indicate that the coal mine operator will
submit additional evidence or respond
to the notice of claim.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
currently approved by the OMB under
the PRA and displays a currently valid
OMB Control Number. In addition,
notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information if the
collection of information does not
display a currently valid OMB control
number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and
1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval
for this information collection under
OMB Control Number 1240–033. The
current OMB approval is scheduled to
expire on December 31, 2010; however,
it should be noted that information
collections submitted to the OMB
receive a month-to-month extension
while they undergo review. For
additional information, see the related
notice published in the Federal Register
on August 20, 2010 (75 FR 51488).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within 30 days of publication of
this notice in the Federal Register. In
order to ensure the appropriate
consideration, comments should
reference OMB Control Number 1240–
0033. The OMB is particularly
interested in comments that:
• 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;

other forms of information technology,
