FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Audrey Revere at (202) 461–5694.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13; 44 U.S.C.
3501–3521), Federal agencies must
obtain approval from OMB for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. This request for comment is
being made pursuant to Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA.
With respect to the following
collection of information, VHA invites
comments on: (1) whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of VHA’s
functions, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) the accuracy of VHA’s estimate of
the burden of the proposed collection of
information; (3) ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and (4)
ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques or
the use of other forms of information
technology.
Title: Reimbursement of Certain
Medical Expenses for Camp Lejeune
Family Members.
OMB Control Number: 2900–0822.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently existing collection.
Abstract: Under 38 U.S.C. 1787, VA is
required to furnish hospital care and
medical services to the family members
of certain veterans who were stationed
at Camp Lejeune between 1957 and
1987. In order to furnish such care, VA
must collect certain information from
the family members to ensure that they
meet the requirements of the law. VA
cannot furnish the statutorily-mandated
hospital care and medical services until
the collection of information is
approved. The specific hospital care and
medical services that VA must provide
are for a number of illnesses and
conditions connected to exposure to

contaminated drinking water while at
Camp Lejeune. Many of these
conditions are life-threatening and
require immediate medical attention.
Therefore, VA certifies that the
collection of information meets each of
the listed criteria for the following
reasons:
(i) The collection is needed prior to
the expiration of time periods
established under this Part, because we
anticipate that the regulations
authorizing VA to furnish hospital care
and medical service to Camp Lejeune
family members will publish and
become effective prior to the expiration
of the time periods established under
this Part.
(ii) The collection is essential to the
mission of the agency, because VA
cannot begin to furnish the hospital care
and medical services set forth in
regulation and required by law, to Camp
Lejeune family members without forms
without first collecting required
information.
(iii) VA cannot reasonably comply
with the normal clearance procedures
because public harm is reasonably likely
to result if normal clearance procedures
are followed. VA will furnish Camp
Lejeune family members with hospital
care and medical services for 15
illnesses and conditions that are life
threatening and require immediate
medical intervention.
Affected Public: Individuals or
Households.
Estimated Total Annual Burden:
5,838 hours.
Estimated Average Burden per
Respondent: 18.75 minutes.
Frequency of Response: Yearly.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
21,720.
Dated: December 17, 2014.
