Title and Purpose of information collection: Designation of Contact Officials; 32200200.
Coordination between railroad employers and the RRB is essential to properly administer the payment of benefits under the Railroad Retirement Act (RRA) and the Railroad Unemployment Insurance Act (RUIA). In order to enhance timely coordination activity, the RRB utilizes Form G117a, Designation of Contact Officials. Form G117a is used by railroad employers to designate employees who are to act as point of contact with the RRB on a variety of RRA and RUIArelated matters.
The RRB estimates that about 100 G117a's will be submitted annually. Completion is voluntary. One response is requested from each respondent. Completion time is estimated at 15 minutes. No changes are proposed to Form G117a.
