SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Black Lung Benefits Act, 30 U.S.C. 901
and its implementing regulations, 20 CFR 725.513(a), 725.533(e),
authorize this information collection. If a beneficiary is incapable of
handling his/her affairs, the person or institution responsible for
their care is required to apply to receive the benefit payments on the
beneficiary's behalf. The CM 910 is the form completed by
representative payee applicants. For additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice published in the Federal
Register on June 24, 2021 (86 FR 33375).
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.
