OIRA Conclusion Action: Approved without change	Conclusion Date: 09/21/1995
	Date Received in OIRA: 06/27/1995
Terms of Clearance: Approved through Sept. 1997 to allow for public comment on the information collection provisions contained in this regulation under the procedures of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. Given the burden imposed by this regulation, DOL will solicit comment on ways that the information collection provisions could be revised or implemented differently to reduce burden while still achieving the purposes of the rule. As required by the PRA 1995, DOL will include a summary of public comments received as part of the record supporting its request for OMB clearance. As indicated in OSHA's May report, "The New OSHA," the agency will undertake a general consolidation of duplicative elements across current health standards. This consolidation will include provisions for training programs, maintenance of records, monitoring of risk exposure, and medical surveillance. Finally, as noted in the correspondence of September 20, OSHA will determine the inspection costs for this collection prior to the next submission.
