Title: Public Safety Officers' Benefits Program Regulations 
Abstract:

The Public Safety Officers' Benefits (PSOB) Programs provide death and education benefits to survivors of fallen law enforcement officers, firefighters, and other first responders, and disability benefits to officers catastrophically injured in the line of duty. This regulation will update the rules for this program regarding death and injuries from 9/11 events, make program changes to improve delivery of benefits, and implement certain provisions in section 1086 of Public Law 112-239. The separate PSOB proposed rule published on August 22, 2016, (RIN: 1121-AA86) has been incorporated into this regulation.
