with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing 
collections of information in accordance with the paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995 (PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)] 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 (OWCP) is soliciting

Injury or Occupational Disease (LS-202) and Employer's Supplementary 
Report of Accident or Occupational Illness (LS-210). A copy of the 
proposed information collection request can be obtained by contacting 
the office listed below in the address section of this Notice.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    The Office of Workers' Compensation Programs administers the 
Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act. The Act provides 
benefits to workers injured in maritime employment on the navigable 
waters of the United States and adjoining area customarily used by an 
employee in loading, unloading, repairing, or building a vessel. The 
LS-202 is used by employers initially to report injuries that have 
occurred which are covered under the Longshore Act and its related 
statutes. The LS-210 is used to report additional periods of lost time 
from work. This information collection is currently approved for use 
through March 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 extension of approval of this 
information collection in order to ensure that employers are complying 
with the reporting requirements of the Act and to ensure that injured 
claimants receive all compensation benefits to which they are entitled.
