SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent (i.e., employer) burden,
conducts a preclearance consultation
program to provide the public with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and continuing information collection
requirements in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA–95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This
program ensures that information is in
the desired format, reporting burden
(time and costs) is minimal, collection
instruments are clearly understood, and
OSHA’s estimate of the information
collection burden is accurate. The
Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 (the OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et
seq.) authorizes information collection
by employers as necessary or
appropriate for enforcement of the OSH
Act or for developing information
regarding the causes and prevention of
occupational injuries, illnesses, and
accidents (29 U.S.C. 657).

Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 154 / Wednesday, August 11, 2010 / Notices
The collections of information
contained in the Hydrostatic Testing
provision of the Portable Fire
Extinguishers Standard are necessary to
reduce workers’ risk of death or serious
injury by ensuring that portable fire
extinguishers are in safe operating
condition. The following section
describes who uses the information in
the testing certification record, as well
as how they use it.
Test Records (§ 1910.157(f)(16))
Paragraph (f)(16) requires employers
to develop and maintain a certification
record of hydrostatic testing of portable
fire extinguishers. The certification
record must include the date of
inspection, the signature of the person
who performed the test, and the serial
number (or other identifier) of the fire
extinguisher that was tested.
Disclosure of Test Certification Records
The certification record must be made
available to the Assistant Secretary or
his/her representative upon request. The
certification record provides assurance
to employers, workers, and OSHA
compliance officers that the fire
extinguishers have been hydrostatically
tested in accordance with and at the
intervals specified in § 1910.157(f)(16),
thereby ensuring that they will operate
properly in the event workers need to
use them. Additionally, these records
provide the most efficient means for the
compliance officers to determine that an
employer is complying with the
hydrostatic testing provision.

II. Special Issues for Comment
OSHA has a particular interest in
comments on the following issues:
• Whether the proposed information
collection requirements are necessary
for the proper performance of the
Agency’s functions, including whether
the information is useful;
• The accuracy of OSHA’s estimate of
the burden (time and costs) of the
information collection requirements,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• The quality, utility, and clarity of
the information collected; and
• Ways to minimize the burden on
employers who must comply; for
example, by using automated or other
technological information collection
and transmission techniques.
III. Proposed Actions
OSHA is requesting that OMB extend
its approval of the information
collection requirements contained in the
Hydrostatic Testing provision of the
Portable Fire Extinguishers Standard for
General Industry (29 CFR

VerDate Mar<15>2010

16:52 Aug 10, 2010

Jkt 220001

1910.157(f)(16)). OSHA is proposing to
decrease the burden hours in the
currently approved information
collection request from 125,952 burden
hours to 124,084 burden hours (a total
decrease of 1,868 hours). This decrease
is due to updated data showing a
decrease in the number of firms affected
by the Standard. The Agency will
summarize the comments submitted in
response to this notice and will include
this summary in the request to OMB.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: The Hydrostatic Testing
provision of the Portable Fire
Extinguishers Standard (29 CFR
1910.157(f)(16)).
OMB Number: 1218–0218.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits; Federal Government; State,
Local, or Tribal Government.
Number of Respondents: 9,066,000.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Average Time per Response: One
minute (.02 hour) to maintain the
certification records to 33 minutes (.55
hour) to test an extinguisher, and to
generate and maintain the certification
record.
Estimated Total Burden Hours:
124,084 hours.
Estimated Cost (Operation and
Maintenance): $16,696,550.
