SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
ADDRESSES:
I. Background
The Office of Workers’ Compensation
Programs (OWCP) administers the
Longshore and Harbor Workers’
Compensation Act (LHWCA). LHWCA
provides benefits to workers injured in
maritime employment on the navigable
waters of the United States or in an
adjoining area customarily used by an
employer in loading, unloading,
repairing, or building a vessel. In
addition, several Acts extend the
Longshore Act’s coverage to certain
other employees. The following
regulations have been developed to
implement the Act’s provisions and to
provide clarification in those areas
where it was deemed necessary (20 CFR
702.162, 702.174, 702.175, 20 CFR
702.242, 20 CFR 702.285, 702.321,
702.201, and 702.111). In some cases,
prior regulations have been updated and
changed either to reflect the intent of
the amended Act or to correct
recognized deficiencies. This
information collection is currently
approved for use through June 30, 2012.
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
