collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction 
Act of 1995. 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: 
Rehabilitation Maintenance Certificate (OWCP-17). 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 August 21, 2018.

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments by mail, delivery service, or by

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. 5 U.S.C. 8111(b) of the FECA provides that OWCP may pay 
an individual undergoing vocational rehabilitation a maintenance 
allowance, not to exceed $200 a month. 33 U.S.C. 908(g) of the LHWCA 
provide that person(s) undergoing such vocational rehabilitation shall 
receive maintenance allowances as additional compensation. Form OWCP-17 
is used to collect information necessary to determine the amount of any 
maintenance allowance to be paid. This information collection is 
currently approved for use through November 30, 2018.
    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 carry out its responsibility to assure payment of compensation 
benefits to injured workers at the proper rate.
    Type of Review: Extension.
    Agency: Office of Workers' Compensation Programs.
    Title: Rehabilitation Maintenance Certificate.
    OMB Number: 1240-0012.
    Agency Number: OWCP-17.
    Affected Public: Individuals or households.
    Total Respondents: 370.
    Total Annual Responses: 3,452.
    Average Time per Response: 10 minutes.
    Estimated Total Burden Hours: 575.

    Total Burden Cost (capital/startup): $0.

    Comments submitted in response to this notice will be summarized 
and/or included in the request for Office of Management and Budget 
approval of the information collection request; they will also become a 
matter of public record.
