[Federal Register: August 5, 1999 (Volume 64, Number 150)] [Notices] [Page 42732] From the Federal Register Online via GPO Access [wais.access.gpo.gov] [DOCID:fr05au99-132] ----------------------------------------------------------------------- OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT Proposed Collection; Comment Request for Reclearance of Information Collection: RI 38-107 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 a request for reclearance of the following information collection. RI 38-107, Verification of Who is Getting Payments, is used to verify that the entitled person is indeed receiving the monies payable. Failure to collect this information would cause OPM to pay monies absent the assurance of a correct payee. Comments are particularly invited on: whether this information is necessary for the proper performance of functions of the Office of Personnel Management, and 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. We estimate 25,400 RI 38-107 forms are completed annually. Each form takes approximately 10 minutes to complete. The annual estimated burden is 4,234 hours. For copies of this proposal, contact Mary Beth Smith-Toomey on (202) 606-8358, or E-mail to mbtoomey@opm.gov. DATES: Comments on this proposal should be received on or before October 4, 1999. ADDRESSES: Send or deliver comments to--Ronald W. Melton, Chief, Operations Support Division, Retirement and Insurance Service, U.S. Office of Personnel Management, 1900 E Street, NW, Room 3349, Washington, DC 20415.
