     Subpart B_Filing Claims; Evidence and Burden of Proof; Special 
                  Procedures for Certain Cancer Claims
 
Sec. 30.115  For those claims that do not seek benefits pursuant to the 

Special Exposure Cohort provisions, what will OWCP do once it determines 
that a covered 
          employee (or a survivor of such an employee) has established 
          that he or she contracted cancer under Sec. 30.211?

    (a) Other than claims solely for a non-radiogenic cancer listed by 
HHS at 42 CFR 81.30, OWCP will forward any such claimant's application 
package (including, but not limited to, Forms EE-1, EE-2, EE-3, EE-4 and 
EE-5, as appropriate) to HHS for dose reconstruction. At that point in 
time, development of the claim by OWCP is suspended.
    (1) This package will include OWCP's initial findings in regard to 
the covered employee's diagnosis and date of diagnosis, as well as any 
employment history compiled by OWCP (including information such as dates 
and locations worked, and job titles). The package, however, does not 
constitute a recommended or final decision by OWCP on the claim.
    (2) HHS will then reconstruct the covered employee's radiation dose, 
following such further development of the employment history as it may 
deem necessary, and provide OWCP, DOE and the claimant with the final 
dose reconstruction report. The final dose reconstruction record will be 
delivered to

OWCP with the final dose reconstruction report and to the claimant upon 
request.
    (b) Following its receipt of the reconstructed dose from HHS, OWCP 
will consider whether the claimant has met the eligibility criteria set 
forth in subpart C of this part.
