The Department of Labor, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent burden, conducts a
preclearance consultation program to
provide the general public and Federal

comment on proposed and/or
continuing collections of information in
accordance with the paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95) [44
U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)] This program
helps to ensure that 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 on
respondents can be properly assessed.
Currently, the Office of Workers’
Compensation (OWCP) is soliciting
comments concerning the proposed
collection: Notice of Controversion of
Right to Compensation (LS–207). A
copy of the proposed information

In addition, notwithstanding any other
provisions of law, no person shall
generally be subject to penalty for
failing to comply with a collection of
