Proposed Collection; Comment Request for Review of a New
Information Collection; OPM Form 1655 and OPM Form 1655-A
AGENCY: Office of Personnel Management.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (Public
Law 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 new information
collection. OPM 1655, Application for Senior Administrative Law Judge,
and OPM 1655-A, Geographic Preference Statement for Senior
Administrative Law Judge Applicant, are used by retired Administrative
Law Judges seeking reemployment on a temporary and intermittent basis
to complete hearings of one or more specified case(s) in accordance
with the Administrative Procedures Act of 1946.
Approximately 150 OPM 1655 are completed annually. Each form takes
approximately 30-45 minutes to complete. The annual estimated burden is
94 hours. Approximately 200 OPM 1655-A are completed annually. Each
form takes approximately 15-25 minutes to complete. The annual
estimated burden is 67 hours.
Comments are particularly invited on:
Whether this information is necessary for the proper
performance of functions of OPM, and whether it will have practical
utility;
Whether our estimates 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.
