Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). This ICR seeks approval under the PRA for revisions to the Claim for Compensation by a Dependent Information Reports information collection. This ICR covers forms a dependent of a deceased Federal employee, whose death is work-related, uses to prove continued eligibility for benefits, to show entitlement to remaining compensation payments of the deceased employee, and to show dependency. Specifically, this ICR covers Forms CA–5 (Claim for Compensation by Widow, Widower, and/or Children), CA–5b (Claim for Compensation by Parents, Brothers, Sisters, Grandparents, or Grandchildren), CA–1031 (Claimant Support of Dependent), and CA–1074 mstockstill on DSK3G9T082PROD with NOTICES SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:16 Aug 23, 2016 Jkt 238001 (Request for Clarification of CA–5b), as well as related form letters used to obtain follow-up information commonly needed to clarify an initial benefit claim. This information collection is considered a revision, because several clarifying changes were made to the forms and letters; however, the changes do not affect the estimated burden. Federal Employee Compensation Act as amended sections 28 and 32 authorize this information collection. See 5 U.S.C. 8145 and 8149. 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 1240–0013. The current approval is scheduled to expire on August 31, 2016; 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 additional substantive information about this ICR, see the related notice published in the Federal Register on March 8, 2016 (81 FR 12129). 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 thirty (30) days of publication of this notice in the Federal Register. In order to help ensure appropriate consideration, comments should mention OMB Control Number 1240–0013. 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 PO 00000 Frm 00062 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 • 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks approval under the PRA for
revisions to the Weekly Claims and Extended Benefits Data and Weekly
Initial and Continued Weeks Claimed information collection
requirements. This data collection is necessary for the determination
of the beginning, continuance, or termination of an Extended Benefit
(EB) period in any State that determines the EB trigger rate. In
addition, data on initial and continued claims are used to help
determine economic indicators. The revisions are related to the Final
Rule titled, ``Federal-State Unemployment Compensation Program;
Implementing the Total Unemployment Rate as an Extended Benefits
Indicator and Amending for Technical Corrections,'' that appears
elsewhere today in the Federal Register. The Final Rule deletes
regulations 20 CFR 615.15 paragraphs (c) and (d) that pertain to
records and reports a State agency must submit. The reporting
instructions for the proper and timely submission of data are provided
in ET Handbook No. 401 that governs Unemployment Compensation required
reporting. Social Security Act section 303(a)(6) and Federal-State
Extended Unemployment Compensation Act of 1970 section 203, as amended
authorize this information collection. See 42 U.S.C. 303(a)(6) and
Public Law 91-373, section 203.
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 1250-0028. The current approval is scheduled to
expire on October 31, 2018; 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 additional substantive
information about this ICR, see the related notice published in the
Federal Register on July 7, 2015 (80 FR 38747) and the Final Rule
published today under RIN 1205-AB62.
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 thirty (30) days of publication of this
notice in the Federal Register. The DOL notes that the request for
public comments is limited to the information collection requirements;
the ETA provided an opportunity for public comment on the underlying
regulatory provisions when it published a Proposed Rule in the Federal
Register on October 24, 2014 (79 FR 63589). In order to help ensure
appropriate consideration, comments on the ICR should mention OMB
Control Number 1205-0028. 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
