SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

American Time Use Survey (ATUS) is 

the Nation’s first federally administered, 

continuous survey on time use in the 

United States. It measures, for example, 

time spent with children, working, 

sleeping, or doing leisure activities. In 

the United States, several existing 

Federal surveys collect income and 

wage data for individuals and families, 

and analysts often use such measures of 

material prosperity as proxies for 

quality of life. Time-use data 

substantially augment these quality-of 

life measures. The data also can be used 

in conjunction with wage data to 

evaluate the contribution of non-market 

work to national economies. This 

enables comparisons of production 

between nations that have different 

mixes of market and non-market 

activities. For additional substantive 

information about this ICR, see the 

related notice published in the Federal 

Register on July 1, 2021 (86 FR 35138). 

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 the OMB 

approves it 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 OMB Control Number. 

See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. 

DOL seeks PRA authorization for this 

information collection for three (3) 

years. OMB authorization for an ICR 

cannot be for more than three (3) years 

without renewal. The DOL notes that 

information collection requirements 

submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Departments of Labor, Health and 

Human Services, and the Treasury share 

interpretive jurisdiction of the Mental 

Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act 

(MHPAEA) and have split enforcement 

jurisdictions. The Department of Labor

with respect to private employersponsored group health plans. The 

Consolidated Appropriations Act, 

enacted on December 27, 2020, 

amended MHPAEA, in part, by 

expressly requiring group health plans 

to perform and document a comparative 

analysis of the design and application of 

any non-quantitative treatment 

limitations (NQTLs) that apply to 

medical/surgical and mental health and 

substance use disorder benefits. For

BILLING CODE 4510–29–P 

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR 

Office of Workers’ Compensation 

Programs 

Proposed Extension of Existing 

Collection; Comment Request 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as 

part of its continuing effort to reduce 

paperwork and respondent burden, 

conducts a pre-clearance consultation 

program to provide the general public 

and Federal agencies with an 

opportunity to comment on proposed 

and/or continuing collections of 

information in accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(PRA95). This program helps to ensure 

that requested data can be provided in 

the desired format, reporting burden 

(time and financial resources) is 

minimized, collection instruments are 

clearly understood, and the impact of 

collection requirements on respondents 

can be properly assessed. Currently, the 

Office of Workers’ Compensation 

Programs is soliciting comments 

concerning the proposed collection: 

Authorization for Release of Medical 

Information (CM–936). A copy of the 

proposed information collection request 

can be obtained by contacting the office 

listed below in the addresses section of 

this Notice. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

submitted to the office listed in the 

addresses section below on or before 

November 12, 2021. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments 

by mail, delivery service, or by hand to 

Ms. Anjanette Suggs, U.S. Department of 

Labor, 200 Constitution Ave. NW, Room 

S–3323, Washington, DC 20210; by fax 

(202) 354–9660; or by Email to 

Suggs.Anjanette@dol.gov. Please use 

only one method of transmission for 

comments (mail/delivery, fax, or Email). 

Please note that comments submitted 

after the comment period will not be 

considered. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background 

The Black Lung Benefits Act, as 

amended, 30 U.S.C. 901 et seq., and 20 

CFR 725.405 require that all relevant 

medical evidence be considered before 

a decision can be made regarding a 

claimant’s eligibility for benefits. By 

signing the CM–936 form, the claimant 

authorizes physicians, hospitals, 

medical facilities or organizations, and 

the National Institute for Occupational 

Safety and Health to release medical 

information about the miner to the 

Department of Labor’s Office of 

Workers’ Compensation Programs. The 

form contains information required by 

medical institutions and private 

physicians to enable them to release 

pertinent medical information. This 

information collection is currently 

approved for use through February 28, 

2022. 

II. Review Focus 

The Department of Labor is 

particularly interested in comments 

which: 

* 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 submissions 

of responses. 

III. Current Actions 

The Department of Labor seeks 

approval for the extension of this 

currently-approved information 

collection in order to obtain claimant 

consent for the release of medical 

information for consideration by the 

Office of Workers’ Compensation 

Programs in their claim for benefits. 

Failure to gather this information would 

inhibit the adjudication of black lung 

claims because pertinent medical data 

would not be available for consideration 

during the processing of the claim.

also become a matter of public record.
