The DOL, as part of continuing efforts to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a pre-clearance consultation program to provide the general public and Federal agencies an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information before submitting them to the OMB for final approval. This program helps to ensure requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden time and financial resources is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirements can be properly assessed.
Background: A Federal employee who sustains a work-related injury is entitled to receive compensation under the Federal Employees Compensation Act FECA. If that injury is caused under circumstances that create a legal liability in a third party to pay damages, the FECA authorizes the Secretary of Labor to require the employee to assign his or her right of action to the United States or to prosecute the action in his or her own name. See 5 U.S.C. 8131.
When the employee receives a payment for his or her damages, whether from a final court judgment on or a settlement of the action, section 8132 of the FECA 5 U.S.C. 8132
provides that the employee shall refund to the United States that amount of compensation paid by the United States. . . . To enforce the United States statutory right of reimbursement, the Office of Workers Compensation Programs OWCP has promulgated regulations. The regulations require a FECA beneficiary to report these types of payments 20 CFR 10.710 and submit the detailed information necessary to calculate the amount of the refund and surplus, if any, according to the formula in the statute 20 CFR 10.707e. The information collected by Form CA1108
and Form CA1122 from the FECA
beneficiary includes this information and is necessary to calculate the amount of the refund and surplus owed to the United States from the FECA
beneficiarys settlement or judgment, as required in the statute and the regulations. This information collection is currently approved for use through February 28, 2022. This information collection is subject to the PRA. A
Federal agency generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and the public is generally not required to respond to an information collection, unless the OMB
under the PRA approves it and displays
