SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks approval under the PRA for 

revisions to the Report of Changes That 

May Affect Your Black Lung Benefits. 

These forms help determine continuing 

eligibility of primary beneficiaries 

receiving black lung benefits. The 

primary beneficiary is required to verify 

and update certain information that may 

affect entitlement to benefits; including 

changes to income, marital status, 

receipt of State Worker’s Compensation 

benefits, and dependent status. This 

information collection has been 

classified as a revision, because of 

minor changes to the language on forms 

CM–929 and CM–929P. Federal Mine 

Safety and Health Act of 1977 section 

426(a) authorizes this information 

collection. See 30 U.S.C. 936(a) 

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 1240–0028. 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,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks to extend PRA authority for the 

Steel Erection Standard information 

collection requirements codified in 

regulations 29 CFR part 1926, subpart R. 

The Standard contains information 

collection requirements to notify 

designated parties—especially steel 

erectors—that building materials, 

components, steel structures, and fallprotection equipment meet required 

criteria; and to ensure workers exposed 

to fall hazards receive specified training 

in the recognition and control of the 

hazards. The Occupational Safety and 

Health Act of 1970 sections 2, 6, and 8 

authorizes this information collection. 

See 29 U.S.C. 651, 655, and 657. 

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 1218–0241. 

OMB authorization for an ICR cannot 

be for more than three (3) years without 

renewal, and 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 

existing information collection 

requirements submitted to the OMB 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review. For 

additional substantive information 

about this ICR, see the related notice
