OFFICE OF PERSONNEL MANAGEMENT


 
Proposed Collection; Comment Request for Review of an Information 
Collection: SF 2817


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) will submit to the Office of Management and 
Budget (OMB) a request for review of an information collection. SF 
2817, Life Insurance Election, is used by employees and assignees 
(those who have acquired ownership and control of an employee's or 
annuitant's coverage through the enrollee's assignment of life 
insurance). The form is used as the official agency record of the 
individual's coverage and enrollment status under the Federal 
Employees' Group Life Insurance (FEGLI) program, and as acknowledgment 
and authorization by the individual for collection from him or her of 
the enrollee share of the premium contributions.
    Comments are particularly invited on: Whether this collection of 
information is necessary for the proper performance of functions of the 
Office of Personnel Management, 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 100 forms are completed annually by assignees. Each 
form takes approximately 15 minutes to complete. The annual estimated 
burden is 25 hours.
    For copies of this proposal, contact Mary Beth Smith-Toomey on 
(202) 606-8358, FAX (202) 418-3251 or via e-mail to mbtoomey@opm.gov. 
Please include a mailing address with your request.


DATES: Comments on this proposal should be received within 60 calendar 
days from the date of this publication.
