OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT


Proposed Collection; Comment Request for Review of a Revised 
Information Collection OPM 1530

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 a request for review of a revised information 
collection. OPM 1530, Report of Medical Examination of Person Electing 
Survivor Benefits Under the Civil Service Retirement System, is used to 
collect sufficient information from the required medical examination 
regarding an annuitant's health. This information is used to determine 
whether the insurable interest survivor benefits election can be 
allowed.
    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 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 500 OPM Forms 1530 will be completed annually. We 
estimate it takes approximately 90 minutes to complete the form. The 
annual burden is 750 hours.
    For copies of this proposal, contact Mary Beth Smith-Toomey on 
(202) 606-8358, or E-mail to [email protected].

DATES: Comments on this proposal should be received on or before April 
24, 2001.

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 3349A, 
Washington, DC 20415.
