SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The OWCP administers the Federal srobinson on DSK4SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES SUMMARY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 16:35 Jun 27, 2012 Jkt 226001 Employees’ Compensation Act (FECA) and the Longshore and Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act (LHWCA). These acts provide vocational rehabilitation services to eligible workers with disabilities. The FECA provides that the OWCP may pay an individual undergoing vocational rehabilitation a maintenance allowance, not to exceed $200 a month. The LHWCA provides that persons undergoing such vocational rehabilitation shall receive maintenance allowances as additional compensation. The Rehabilitation Maintenance Certificate, Form OWCP–17, is used to collect information necessary to determine the amount of any maintenance allowance to be paid. Form OWCP–17, is submitted to the OWCP by program participants or contractors the agency hires to provide vocational rehabilitation services requesting payment of an additional rehabilitation maintenance amount to cover incidental costs of obtaining vocational rehabilitation services. For example, when a disabled worker attends a training program, Form OWCP–17 may be used to request reimbursement of out-of-pocket costs such as travel expenses. This ICR technically qualifies as a revision under the PRA, because the agency has reformatted elements of Form OWCP–17 (e.g., replaced an obsolete logo with the DOL Seal and removed references to the no longer existent Employment Standards Administration). 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 approved by the OMB under the PRA and displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.
