Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D).
This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Powered Industrial Trucks Standard
information collection requirements
codified in regulations 29 CFR
1910.178. The Standard contains several
information collection requirements
addressing truck design, construction,
and modification, as well as
certification of training and evaluation
for truck operators. Occupational Safety
and Health Act of 1970 sections 2(b)(9),
6(b)(7), and 8(c) authorize this
information collection. See 29 U.S.C.
651(b)(9), 655(b)(7), 657(c).
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. 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 that 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 1218–0242.
OMB authorization for an ICR cannot
be for more than three (3) years without
renewal, and the current approval for
this collection is scheduled to expire on
September 30, 2014. The DOL seeks to
extend PRA authorization for this
information collection for three (3) more
years, without any change to existing
requirements. The DOL notes that

Register. In order to help ensure
appropriate consideration, comments
should mention OMB Control Number
1218–0242. 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;
• 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 submission of
responses.

revisions to the Rehabilitation Action
Report, Form OWCP–44, which a
contractor hired to provide vocational
rehabilitation services submits to the
OWCP. Form OWCP–44 gives prompt
notification of key events that may
require OWCP action in the vocational
rehabilitation process. For example,
when a disabled worker returns to work,
benefits must be promptly adjusted to
avoid an overpayment. All items are
completed by the rehabilitation
counselor from information in his or her
records. This information collection has
been classified as a revision, because of
the deletion of a few data fields, such as
the date wage-loss began and the date
the rehabilitation case opened. Fields
for specific rehabilitation counselor
action items have also been either
expanded or deleted. In addition, the
Privacy Act Statement has been revised,
and the form will now include an
accommodation statement informing a
claimant with a mental or physical
limitation to contact the OWCP if
further assistance is needed in the
claims process. The Federal Employees’
Compensation Act and Longshore and
Harbor Workers’ Compensation Act
authorize this information collection.
See 5 U.S.C. 8104(a), 8111(b) and 33
U.S.C. 908(g), 939(c).
This information collection is subject

obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1240–0008. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on
September 30, 2014; however, the DOL
notes that existing information
collection requirements submitted to the
OMB receive a month-to-month
extension while they undergo review.
New requirements would only take
effect upon OMB approval. For
