SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background: The Office of Workers’ 

Compensation Programs (OWCP) 

administers the Federal Employees’ 

Compensation Act (FECA) and the 

Longshore and Harbor Workers’ 

Compensation Act (LHWCA). These acts 

provide vocational rehabilitation 

services to eligible workers with 

disabilities. Section 8104(a) of the FECA 

and § 939(c) of the LHWCA provide that 

eligible injured workers are to be 

furnished vocational rehabilitation 

services, and § 8111(b) of the FECA and 

§ 908(g) of the LHWCA provide that 

persons undergoing such vocational 

rehabilitation receive maintenance 

allowances as additional compensation. 

Form OWCP–44 is used to collect 

information necessary to decide if 

maintenance allowances should 

continue to be paid. Form OWCP–44 is 

submitted to OWCP by contractors hired 

to provide vocational rehabilitation 

services. Form OWCP–44 gives prompt 

notification of key events that may 

require OWCP action in the vocational 

rehabilitation process. This information 

collection is currently approved for use 

through December 31, 2017. 

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 the approval for the 

extension of this currently approved 

information collection in order to 

ascertain the status of a rehabilitation 

case and to expedite adjudicatory claims 

action based on events arising from a 

rehabilitation effort.

NATIONAL ARCHIVES AND RECORDS 

ADMINISTRATION 

[NARA–2018–001] 

Records Schedules; Availability and 

Request for Comments 

AGENCY: National Archives and Records 

Administration (NARA). 

ACTION: Notice of availability of 

proposed records schedules; request for 

comments. 

SUMMARY: The National Archives and 

Records Administration (NARA) 

publishes notice at least once monthly 

of certain Federal agency requests for 

records disposition authority (records 

schedules). Once approved by NARA, 

records schedules provide mandatory 

instructions on what happens to records 

when agencies no longer need them for 

current Government business. The 

records schedules authorize agencies to 

preserve records of continuing value in 

the National Archives of the United 

States and to destroy, after a specified 

period, records lacking administrative, 

legal, research, or other value. NARA 

publishes notice in the Federal Register 

for records schedules in which agencies 

propose to destroy records they no 

longer need to conduct agency business. 

NARA invites public comments on such 

records schedules. 

DATES: NARA must receive requests for 

copies in writing by November 17, 2017. 

Once NARA finishes appraising the 

records, we will send you a copy of the 

schedule you requested. We usually 

prepare appraisal memoranda that 

contain additional information 

concerning the records covered by a 

proposed schedule. You may also 

request these. If you do, we will also 

provide them once we have completed 

the appraisal. You have 30 days after we 

send to you these requested documents 

in which to submit comments. 

ADDRESSES: You may request a copy of 

any records schedule identified in this 

notice by contacting Records Appraisal 

and Agency Assistance (ACRA) using 

one of the following means: 

Mail: NARA (ACRA); 8601 Adelphi 

Road; College Park, MD 20740–6001. 

Email: request.schedule@nara.gov. 

Fax: 301–837–3698. 

You must cite the control number, 

which appears in parentheses after the 

name of the agency that submitted the 

schedule, and a mailing address. If you 

would like an appraisal report, please 

include that in your request. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Margaret Hawkins, Director, by mail at 

Records Appraisal and Agency 

Assistance (ACRA); National Archives 

and Records Administration; 8601 

Adelphi Road; College Park, MD 20740– 

6001, by phone at 301–837–1799, or by 

email at request.schedule@nara.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: NARA 

publishes notice in the Federal Register 

for records schedules they no longer 

need to conduct agency business. NARA 

invites public comments on such 

records schedules, as required by 44 

U.S.C. 3303a(a). 

Each year, Federal agencies create 

billions of records on paper, film, 

magnetic tape, and other media. To 

control this accumulation, agency 

records managers prepare schedules 

proposing records retention periods and 

submit these schedules for NARA’s 

approval. These schedules provide for 

timely transfer into the National 

Archives of historically valuable records 

and authorize the agency to dispose of 

all other records after the agency no 

longer needs them to conduct its 

business. Some schedules are 

comprehensive and cover all the records 

of an agency or one of its major 

subdivisions. Most schedules, however, 

cover records of only one office or 

program or a few series of records. Many 

of these update previously approved 

schedules, and some include records 

proposed as permanent. 

The schedules listed in this notice are 

media neutral unless otherwise 

specified. An item in a schedule is 

media neutral when an agency may 

apply the disposition instructions to 

records regardless of the medium in 

which it creates or maintains the 

records. Items included in schedules 

submitted to NARA on or after 

December 17, 2007, are media neutral 

unless the item is expressly limited to 

a specific medium. (See 36 CFR 

1225.12(e).) 

Agencies may not destroy Federal 

records without Archivist of the United 

States’ approval. The Archivist approves 

destruction only after thoroughly 

considering the records’ administrative 

use by the agency of origin, the rights 

of the Government and of private people 

directly affected by the Government’s 

activities, and whether or not the 

records have historical or other value. 

In addition to identifying the Federal 

agencies and any subdivisions 

requesting disposition authority, this 

notice lists the organizational unit(s) 

accumulating the records (or notes that 

the schedule has agency-wide 

applicability when schedules cover 

records that may be accumulated 

throughout an agency); provides the 

control number assigned to each 

schedule, the total number of schedule 

items, and the number of temporary 

items (the records proposed for 

destruction); and includes a brief 

description of the temporary records. 

The records schedule itself contains a 

full description of the records at the file 

unit level as well as their disposition. If 

NARA staff has prepared an appraisal 

memorandum for the schedule, it also 

includes information about the records. 

You may request additional information 

about the disposition process at the 

addresses above. 

Schedules Pending: 

1. Department of the Army, Agencywide (DAA–AU–2017–0015, 1 item, 1 

temporary item). Master files of an 

electronic information system used to 

maintain inventory of assets that may 

contain hazardous materials. 

2. Department of the Army, Agencywide (DAA–AU–2017–0018, 1 item, 1
