RAILROAD RETIREMENT BOARD 

Proposed Data Collection(s) Available 

for Public Comment and 

Recommendations 

SUMMARY: In accordance with the 

requirement of Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of 

the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

which provides opportunity for public 

comment on new or revised data 

collections, the Railroad Retirement 

Board (RRB) will publish periodic 

summaries of proposed data collections. 

Comments are invited on: (a) 

Whether the proposed information 

collections are necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information has practical utility; (b) the 

accuracy of the RRB’s estimate of the 

burden of the collection of the 

information; (c) ways to enhance the 


sroberts on PROD1PC70 with NOTICES
51536 Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 171 / Wednesday, September 3, 2008 / Notices 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and (d) 

ways to minimize the burden related to 

the collection of information on 

respondents, including the use of 

automated collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology. 

1. Title and Purpose of Information 

Collection 

Employee’s Certification; OMB 3220– 

0140 

Section 2 of the Railroad Retirement 

Act (RRA), provides for the payment of 

an annuity to the spouse or divorced 

spouse of a retired railroad employee. 

For the spouse or divorced spouse to 

qualify for an annuity, the RRB must 

determine if the employee’s current 

marriage to the applicant is valid. 

The requirements for obtaining 

documentary evidence to determine 

valid marital relationships are 

prescribed in 20 CFR 219.30 through 

219.35. Section 2(e) of the RRA requires 

that an employee must relinquish all 

rights to any railroad employer service 

before a spouse annuity can be paid. 

The RRB uses Form G–346 to obtain 

the information needed to determine 

whether the employee’s current 

marriage is valid. Form G–346 is 

completed by the retired employee who 

is the husband or wife of the applicant 

for a spouse annuity. Completion is 

required to obtain a benefit. One 

response is requested of each 

respondent. 

The RRB proposes no changes to 

Form G–346. The RRB estimates that 

6,900 G–346’s will be completed 

annually at an estimated completion 

time of five minutes per response. Total 

respondent burden is estimated at 575 

hours. 

2. Title and Purpose of Information 

Collection 

Application and Claim for RUIA 

Benefits Due at Death; OMB 3220–0055 

Under Section 2(g) of the Railroad 

Unemployment Insurance Act (RUIA), 

benefits under that Act that accrued but 

were not paid because of the death of an 

employee shall be paid to the same 

individual(s) to whom benefits are 

payable under Section 6(a)(1) of the 

Railroad Retirement Act. The provisions 

relating to the payment of such benefits 

are prescribed in 20 CFR 325.5 and 20 

CFR 335.5. 

The RRB provides Form UI–63 for use 

in applying for the accrued sickness or 

unemployment benefits unpaid at the 

death of the employee and for securing 

the information needed by the RRB to 

identify the proper payee. Completion is 

voluntary. One response is requested of 

each respondent. 

The RRB proposes non-burden 

impacting editorial changes (for 

clarification purposes) and formatting 

changes to Form UI–63. The completion 

time for Form UI–63 is estimated at 7 

minutes. The RRB estimates that 

approximately 200 responses are 

received annually. Total annual 

respondent burden is estimated at 23 

hours. 

Additional Information or Comments: 

To request more information regarding 

either of the information collections 

listed above or to obtain copies of the 

information collection justifications, 

forms, and/or supporting material, 

please call the RRB Clearance Officer at 

(312) 751–3363 or send an e-mail 

request to Charles.Mierzwa@RRB.GOV.

collections should be addressed to 

Ronald J. Hodapp, Railroad Retirement 

Board, 844 North Rush Street, Chicago, 

Illinois 60611–2092 or via an e-mail to 

Ronald.Hodapp@RRB.GOV. Written

days of this notice.
