Type of Information Collection: Extension without change of a currently approved collection	Common Form ICR:  No

	Date Received in OIRA: 04/24/1981
Terms of Clearance: This request for clearance is returned without approval. The DOL supplementary statement of July 9 was not fully responsive to the OMB request for additional information. Specifically, the sample of 145,000 units was not supported by a description of procedures and required variances. Accordingly, the requested sample size cannot be evaluated. Further, a sample of 145,000 units appears excessive in light of the requlatory purposes to be served by the study. Also, the memorandum appears to indicate that DOL would also use the State sample units for purposes of making fatality estimates. This approach is unacceptable in that using such dat would necessitate a Federal reporting requirement on the State sample members. Moreover, OSHA requires immediate reporting of all fatalities. Accordingly, the need for fatality data is already served.
