OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

 
Proposed Collection; Comment Request for Review of Revised 
Information Collection: RI 38-31

AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. 
L. 104-13, May 22, 1995), this notice announces that the Office of 
Personnel Management (OPM) intends to submit to the Office of 
Management and Budget (OMB) a request for review of a revised 
information collection. RI 38-31, Request for Information About Your 
Missing Payment, is sent in response to a notification by an individual 
of the loss or non-receipt of a payment from the Civil Service 
Retirement and Disability Fund. This form requests the information 
needed to enable OPM to trace and/or reissue payment. Missing payments 
may also be reported to OPM by a telephone call.
    Comments are particularly invited on: Whether this collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of functions of the 
Office of Personnel Management, whether it will have practical utility; 
whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection of 
information is accurate, and based on valid assumptions and 
methodology; and ways in which we can minimize the burden of the 
collection of information on those who are to respond, through the use 
of appropriate technological collection techniques or other forms of 
information technology.
    Approximately 8,000 RI 38-31 forms are completed annually. We 
estimate it takes approximately 10 minutes to complete the form. The 
annual burden is 1,300 hours.
    For copies of this proposal, contact Mary Beth Smith-Toomey on 
(202) 606-8358, fax (202) 418-3251 or via e-mail to mbtoomey@opm.gov. 
Please include a mailing address with your request.

DATES: Comments on this proposal should be received within 60 calendar 
days from the date of this publication.

Operations Support Group, Center for Retirement and Insurance Services, 
U.S. Office of Personnel Management, 1900 E Street, NW., Room 3349A,
