Continued Claims Forms for Non‑Federal LEOs
The Department of Labor will continue collecting the Notice of Law Enforcement Officer's Injury or Occupational Disease (Form CA-721) and the Notice of Law Enforcement Officer's Death (Form CA-722). These forms are how non‑Federal law enforcement officers and their survivors file claims under 5 U.S.C. 8191–8193, and the extension says it will not add new rules. The agency is accepting comments on the collection through July 7, 2026.
Small Paperwork Burden for Private Agencies
The Office of Workers' Compensation Programs reports this collection affects the private sector with 4 respondents, 4 annual responses, 1.333 annual burden hours, and $81.00 in annual respondent costs. OWCP says the extension aims to reduce paperwork burden, invites comments (including on electronic submission), and sets a comment deadline of July 7, 2026.
