ACTION:
Notice.
The Department of Labor
(DOL) is submitting the Office of
Workers’ Compensation Programs
(OWCP) sponsored information
collection request (ICR) revision titled,
‘‘Authorization for Release of Medical
Information for Black Lung Benefits,’’ to
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and approval for use
in accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
3501 et seq.).
DATES: Submit comments on or before
October 15, 2012.
ADDRESSES: A copy of this ICR with
applicable supporting documentation;
including a description of the likely
respondents, proposed frequency of
response, and estimated total burden
may be obtained from the RegInfo.gov
Web site, https://www.reginfo.gov/

following publication of this notice or

a toll-free number) or sending an email
to DOL_PRA_PUBLIC@dol.gov.
Submit comments about this request

Regulatory Affairs, Attn: OMB Desk

SUMMARY:
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Contact Michel Smyth by telephone at
202–693–4129 (this is not a toll-free

DOL_PRA_PUBLIC@dol.gov.
Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D).
The Black
Lung Benefits Act as Amended, 30
U.S.C. 901 et seq., and regulations 20
CFR 725.405 require that all relevant
medical evidence be considered before
a decision can be made regarding a
claimant’s eligibility for black lung
benefits; consequently, a person who
files such a claim may submit medical
information to the OWCP, Division of
Coal Mine Workers’ Compensation to
help develop the claim. Form CM–936
gives the claimant’s consent for the
release of that medical information by

any physician, hospital, agency, or other
organization to the OWCP.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. This ICR has been
characterized as a revision, because the
OWCP has reformatted elements of
Form CM–936 (e.g., replaced an obsolete
logo with the DOL Seal, updated the
OMB Control Number, added a notice
on rights for persons with disabilities,
and removed references to the no longer
existent Employment Standards
Administration).
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. 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 valid Control Number. See 5
CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL
obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1240–0034. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on
November 30, 2012; however, it should
be noted that existing information
collection requirements 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 May 31, 2012 (77 FR 32140).
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 help ensure appropriate
consideration, comments should
mention OMB Control Number 1240–

• Evaluate whether the proposed

In accordance with Section 223 of the

19 U.S.C. 2273, the Department of Labor
issued a Certification of Eligibility to

applicable to workers of New Process

Roseburg Forest Products, Composite Panel
Division, Including On-Site Leased
Workers of Robert Half, Russellville, SC
On August 12, 2011, the Department
of Labor (Department) issued a
certification regarding workers’
eligibility to apply for Trade Adjustment
Assistance (TAA) applicable to workers
and former workers of Roseburg Forest
Products, Composite Panel Division,
Orangeburg, South Carolina (TA–W–
80,308) and Russellville, South Carolina
(TA–W–80,308A). The Department’s
Notice of determination was published
in the Federal Register on September 2,
2011 (76 FR 54796).
The certification was based on the
Department’s findings that aggregate
industry imports of articles like or
directly competitive with the articles
PO 00000
Frm 00063
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
produced by Roseburg Forest Products,
Composite Panel Division, Orangeburg,
South Carolina and Russellville, South
Carolina had contributed importantly to
subject worker group separations.
Subsequent to the issuance of the
certification, the Department received
information that suggested that the
aggregate industry import data on which
the certification determination relied
may have included related articles that
may not be either like or directly
competitive with either particleboard or
laminated wood panels.
On July 17, 2012, the Department
issued a Notice of Investigation
Regarding Termination of Certification
of workers and former workers of
Roseburg Forest Products, Composite
Panel Division, Orangeburg, South
Carolina and Russellville, South
Carolina. The Department’s Notice of
Investigation Regarding Termination of
Certification was published in the
Federal Register on July 30, 2012 (77 FR
44683), and the Department conducted
what is referred to herein as the
‘‘immediate investigation.’’
During the immediate investigation,
Roseburg Forest Products (subject firm)
confirmed that the subject facilities
produced particleboard and/or
laminated wood panels, and provided
additional information regarding the
subject facilities’ operations related to
particleboard and/or laminated wood
panel production and their respective
relationships to the subject firm’s
customers of particleboard and/or
laminated wood panels.
Taking into consideration the new
information provided by the subject
firm, the Department reviewed
previously-submitted aggregate industry
import data and the previouslyconducted aggregate import analysis.
The Department then excluded import
data unrelated to particleboard and/or
laminated wood panels (and like or
directly competitive articles) and
conducted another aggregate industry
import analysis for the same time period
but using the revised aggregate import
database.
The Department’s analysis of this
database revealed that the import levels
of the subject articles and like or
directly competitive articles did not
increase during the relevant period.
Therefore, aggregate data did not
provide a basis for certifying the subject
worker groups under Section 222 of the
Act, 19 U.S.C., 2272, as described in the
determination issued on August 12,
2011.
After determining that the basis for
certification as described in the
determination was not valid, the
Department continued the immediate

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Black Lung Benefits Act as Amended, 30
U.S.C. 901 et seq., and regulations 20 CFR 725.405 require that all
relevant medical evidence be considered before a decision can be made
regarding a claimant's eligibility for black lung benefits;
consequently, a person who files such a claim may submit medical
information to the OWCP, Division of Coal Mine Workers' Compensation to
help develop the claim. Form CM-936 gives the claimant's consent for
the release of that medical information by any physician, hospital,
agency, or other organization to the OWCP.
This information collection is subject to the PRA. This ICR has
been characterized as a revision, because the OWCP has reformatted
elements of Form CM-936 (e.g., replaced an obsolete logo with the DOL
Seal, updated the OMB Control Number, added a notice on rights for
persons with disabilities, and removed references to the no longer
existent Employment Standards Administration).
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. 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 valid
Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB
approval for this information collection under Control Number 1240-
0034. The current approval is scheduled to expire on November 30, 2012;
however, it should be noted that existing information collection
requirements 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 May 31, 2012 (77 FR 32140).
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 help ensure appropriate
consideration, comments should mention OMB Control Number 1240-0034.
