SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background: The Division of Coal
Mine Workers’ Compensation
administers the Black Lung Benefits Act
(30 U.S.C. 901 et seq.), which provides
benefits to coal miners totally disabled
due to pneumoniosis, and their
surviving dependents. A miner who
applies for black lung benefits must
complete the CM–911 (application
form). The completed form gives basic
identifying information about the
applicant and is the beginning of the
development of the black lung claim.
The applicant must complete a CM–
911a at the same time the black lung
application form is submitted. This form
when completed renders a complete
history of employment and helps to
establish if the miner currently or

Labor is particularly interested in
comments which:

functions of the agency, including
Form
whether the information will have
practical utility;

administers the Black Lung Benefits Act
(30 U.S.C. 901 et seq.), which provides
benefits to coal miners totally disabled
due to pneumoniosis, and their
surviving dependents. The CM–623,
Representative Payee Report is used to
collect expenditure data regarding the
disbursement of the beneficiary’s
benefits by the representative payee to
assure that the beneficiary’s needs are
being met. The CM–623S,
Representative Payee—Short Form, is a
shortened version of the CM–623 that is
used when the representative payee is a
family member residing with the
beneficiary. The CM–787, Physician’s/
Medical Officer’s Statement is used to
gather information from the
beneficiary’s physician about the
capability of the beneficiary to manage
monthly benefits. This form is used by
OWCP to determine if it is in the
beneficiary’s best interest to have his/
her benefits managed by another party.
The regulatory authority for collecting
this information is in 20 CFR 725.506,
510, 511, and 513. This information
