OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT

[OMB Control No. 3206-0173; Form SF 3102]

 
Proposed Information Collection; Request for Comments on a 
Revised Information Collection

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. This information collection, ``Designation of 
Beneficiary (FERS)'' (OMB Control No. 3206-0173; form SF 3102), is used 
by an employee or an annuitant covered under the Federal Employees 
Retirement System to designate a beneficiary to receive any lump sum 
due in the event of his/her death.
    Comments are particularly invited on whether this collection of 
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 
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 use of the appropriate technological 
collection techniques or other forms of information technology.
    Approximately 2,893 SF 3102 forms are completed annually. Each form 
will take approximately 15 minutes to complete. The annual estimated 
burden is 723 hours.
    For copies of this proposal, contact Margaret A. Miller by 
telephone at (202) 606-2699, by FAX (202) 418-3251, or by e-mail to 
Margaret.Miller@opm.gov. Please include a mailing address with your 
request.

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

ADDRESSES: Send or deliver comments to Ronald W. Melton, Deputy 
Assistant Director, Retirement Services Program, Center for Retirement 
and Insurance Services, U.S. Office of Personnel Management, 1900 E 
Street, NW.--Room 3305, Washington, DC 20415-3500.
