SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks OMB approval for the information 

collection requirements related to the 

Registered Apprenticeship College 

Consortium (RACC) to facilitate 

awarding a registered apprenticeship 

completion certificate towards college 

credit. RACC post-secondary 

educational institution members agree 

to accept apprentice graduates from 

member registered apprenticeship 

sponsors with the approximate amount 

of credit towards college that has been 

designated by a third party evaluator. 

This consortium is based on the Service 

Members Opportunities Colleges 

Consortium supported by the 

Department of Defense. The information 

collection includes three application 

forms to join the consortium; there 

would be three types of membership 

and separate applications for each type 

of member. 

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. For 

additional information, see the related 

notice published in the Federal Register 

on January 11, 2013 (78 FR 2443).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In order to 

qualify as an eligible dependent for 

black lung benefits, a child aged 18- to 

23-years must be a full-time student as 

described in the Black Lung Benefits 

Act, 30 U.S.C. 901 et. seq., and 

regulations 20 CFR 725.209. A school 

official completes a Certification by 

School Official (Form CM–981) to verify 

whether a Black Lung beneficiary’s 

dependent between the ages of 18 to 23 

years qualifies as a full-time student. 

This ICR has been characterized as a 

revision request under the PRA, because 

the OWCP has made formatting changes 

to make Form CM–981 electronically 

fillable. For additional substantive 

information about this ICR, see the 

related notice published in the Federal 

Register on February 22, 2013 (78 FR

CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL 

obtains OMB approval for this 

information collection under Control 

Number 1240–0031. The current 

approval is scheduled to expire on July 

31, 2013; however, it should be noted 

that existing information collection

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review. New 

information collection requirements 

would only take effect upon OMB
