Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks approval under the PRA for 

revisions to the Request to be Selected 

as Payee information collection. 

Benefits are payable by the DOL to 

miners who are totally disabled due to 

pneumoconiosis and to certain 

survivors of a miner under the Federal 

Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977, as 

amended (30 U.S.C. 901 et seq.). If a 

beneficiary is incapable of handling his/ 

her affairs, the person or institution 

responsible for the beneficiary’s care is 

required to apply to receive the benefit 

payments on the beneficiary’s behalf. A 

representative payee applicant 

completes and submits Form CM–910 

for evaluation to the district office that 

has jurisdiction over the beneficiary’s 

claim file. This information collection 

has been classified as a revision, 

because of minor clarifications to Form 

CM–910 to allow applicants better to 

understand what information they need 

to provide. In addition, an 

accommodation statement has been 

added to Form CM–910 to inform 

applicants with mental or physical 

limitations to contact the Division of 

Coal Mine Workers’ Compensation if 

further assistance is needed in the 

claims process. The Black Lung Benefits 

Act authorizes this information 

collection. See 30 U.S.C. 923, 936. 

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 1240–0010. The current 

approval is scheduled to expire on May 

31, 2015; 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 December 10, 2014 

(79 FR 73340). 

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 

1240–0010. 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.
