SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995, (Pub. L. 104-13, 44 U.S.C. chapter 35) as amended by the 
Clinger-Cohen Act (Pub. L. 104-106), OPM is soliciting comments for 
this collection. The Office of Management and Budget is particularly 
interested in comments that:
    1. 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;
    2. 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;
    3. Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to 
be collected; and
    4. Minimize the burden of the collection of information on those

electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting electronic

    The Civilian Service Recognition Act of 2011 (Pub. L. 112-73) 
authorizes an agency to furnish a United States flag on behalf of 
employees who die of injuries incurred in connection with their 
employment under specified circumstances. The U.S. Office of Personnel 
Management (OPM) is issuing guidance and proposed regulations to 
implement the Civilian Service Recognition Act of 2011. The guidance 
and proposed regulations will assist agencies in administering a United 
States flag recognition benefit for fallen Federal civilian employees. 
The guidance and proposed regulations describe the eligibility 
requirements and procedures to request a flag.
    OPM Form OPM 1825, Application for U.S. Flag Recognition Benefit 
for Deceased Federal Civilian Employees, may be used to determine 
deceased Federal employee and beneficiary (e.g., family member of a 
deceased employee) eligibility for issuance of a U.S. flag. The form 
may be used by any Federal entity and use of the form is at agency 
discretion. Agencies may use an electronic version of the form when the 
agency is equipped to accept electronic signatures.
