technological collection techniques or other forms of information 
technology, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses.

    Description: The Office of Workers' Compensation Programs (OWCP) 
administers the Longshore and Harbor Workers' Compensation Act. This 
Act was amended on October 27, 1972, to provide for continuation of 
death benefits for a child or certain other surviving dependents after 
the age of 18 years (to age 23) if the dependent qualifies as a student 
as defined in section 2(18) of the Act.
    The information collected from Form LS-266 is used by OWCP to 
assure that a claimant receives all of the benefits under the Act to 
which he/she may be entitled. If the information were not collected, 
there would be no way to determine the proper status of a student and 
his/her continued entitlement to benefits.

Departmental Clearance Officer.
