SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

jlentini on DSK4TPTVN1PROD with NOTICES

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
(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

VerDate Mar<15>2010

17:16 Aug 19, 2011

Jkt 223001

regarding the causes and prevention of
occupational injuries, illnesses, and
accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act
also requires that OSHA obtain such
information with minimum burden
upon employers, especially those
operating small businesses, and to
reduce to the maximum extent feasible
unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The information collection
requirements in the Coke Oven
Emissions Standard provide protection
for workers from the adverse health
effects associated with exposure to coke
oven emissions. In this regard, the Coke
Oven Emissions Standard requires
employers to monitor workers’ exposure
to coke oven emissions, monitor worker
health, and provide workers with
information about their exposures and
the health effects of exposure to coke
oven emissions.
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 an adjustment
increase of 1,543 burden hours (from
52,698 hours to 54,241). The adjustment
is primarily the result of identifying
three additional coke oven batteries.
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: Coke Oven Emissions Standard
(29 CFR 1910.1029).
OMB Number: 1218–0128.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits.
Number of Respondents: 20.
Frequency of Response: On occasion;
quarterly; annually.
Average Time per Response: Varies
from 5 minutes (.08 hour) to provide
information to the examining physician
to 1 hour to conduct exposure
monitoring.

ACTION:

Notice.

SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a preclearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and/or continuing collections of
information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This
program helps to ensure that requested
data can be provided in the desired
format, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed. Currently, the Office
of Workers’ Compensation Programs is
soliciting comments concerning the
proposed collection: Agreement and
Undertaking (OWCP–1). A copy of the
proposed information collection request
can be obtained by contacting the office
listed below in the addresses section of
this Notice.
DATES: Written comments must be
submitted to the office listed in the
addresses section below on or before
October 21, 2011.
ADDRESSES: Mr. Vincent Alvarez, U.S.
Department of Labor, 200 Constitution

only one method of transmission for

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION

I. Background: Coal mine operators
desiring to be self-insurers are required
by law (30 U.S.C. 933 BL) to produce
security by way of an indemnity bond,

VerDate Mar<15>2010

17:16 Aug 19, 2011

Jkt 223001

security deposit, a letter of credit, or
501(c)(21) trust. Once a company’s
application to become self-insured is
reviewed by the Division of Coal Mine
Workers’ Compensation (DCMWC) and
it is determined the company is
potentially eligible, an amount of
security is determined to guarantee the
payment of benefits required by the Act.
The OWCP–1 form is executed by the
self-insurer who agrees to abide by the
Department’s rules and authorizes the
Secretary, in the event of default, to file
suit to secure payment from a bond
underwriter or in the case of a Federal
Reserve account, to sell the securities
for the same purpose. A company
cannot be authorized to self-insure until
this requirement is met. Regulations
establishing this requirement are at 20
CFR 726.110 for Black Lung. This
information collection is currently
approved for use through October 31,
2011.
II. Review Focus: The Department of
Labor is particularly interested in
comments which:
* Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
* Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
* Enhance the quality, utility and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
* Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submissions
of responses.
III. Current Actions: The Department
of Labor seeks the approval of the
extension of this currently approved
information collection in order to
determine if a coal mine company is
potentially eligible to become selfinsured. The information is reviewed to
insure that the correct amounts of
negotiable securities are deposited or
indemnity bond is purchased and that
in a case of default OWCP has the
authority to utilize the securities or
bond. If this Agreement and
Undertaking were not required, OWCP
would not be empowered to utilize the
company’s security deposit to meet its
financial responsibilities for the
payment of black lung benefits in case
of default.
