Longshore Act’s coverage to certain
other employees. Section 33 U.S.C. 907
of the Longshore Act and 20 CFR
702.419, the employer/insurance carrier
is responsible for furnishing medical
care for the injured employee for such
period of time as the injury or recovery
period may require. Form LS–1 serves
two purposes: It authorizes the medical

treating physician to report the findings,
treatment given, and anticipated
physical condition of the employee.
Legal authority for this information
collection is found at 33 U.S.C. 907.
Regulatory authority is found at 20 CFR

information about this ICR, see the

Register on June 11, 2020 (85 FR 35669).
This information collection is subject

notwithstanding any other provisions of
law, no person shall generally be subject
to penalty for failing to comply with a
collection of information that does not
display a valid OMB Control Number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
DOL seeks PRA authorization for this
information collection for three (3)
years. OMB authorization for an ICR
cannot be for more than three (3) years
without renewal. The DOL notes that

submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs
receive a month-to-month extension
while they undergo review.
