N–3609, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW.,

693–2222.
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 (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). 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).
Manila rope and manila-rope slings
(paragraph 1915.112(a)(1)(i))—The
employer must ensure that manila rope
and manila-rope slings have
permanently affixed and legible
identification markings as prescribed by
the manufacturer that indicate the
recommended safe working load for the

type(s) of hitch(es) used, the angle upon
which it is based, and the number of
legs if more than one.
Wire rope and wire-rope slings
(paragraph 1915.112(b)(1)(i))—The
employer must ensure that wire rope
and wire-rope slings have permanently
affixed and legible identification
markings as prescribed by the
manufacturer that indicate the
recommended safe working load for the
type(s) of hitch(es) used, the angle upon
which it is based, and the number of
legs if more than one.
Chain and chain slings (paragraph
1915.112(c)(1)(i))—The employer must
ensure that chain and chain slings have
permanently affixed and legible
identification markings as prescribed by
the manufacturer that indicate the
recommended safe working load for the
type(s) of hitch(es) used, the angle upon
which it is based, and the number of
legs if more than one.
Shackles (paragraph
1915.113(a)(1))—The employer must
ensure that shackles have permanently
affixed and legible identification
markings as prescribed by the
manufacturer that indicate the
recommended safe working load.
Test Records for Hooks (paragraph
1915.113(b)(1))—This paragraph
requires that the manufacturer’s
recommendations be followed in
determining the safe working loads of
the various sizes and types of hooks. If
the manufacturer’s recommendations
are not available, the hook must be
tested to twice the intended safe
working load before it is initially put
into use. The employer must maintain
and keep readily available a certification
record which includes the date of such
test, the signature of the person who
performed the test, and the identifier for
the hook which was tested.
The records are used to assure that
equipment has been properly tested.
The records also provide the most
efficient means for the compliance
officers to determine that an employer is
complying with the Standard.
Examination and Test Records for
Unfired Pressure Vessels (paragraph
1915.172(d))—This paragraph requires
that portable, unfired pressure vessels
not built to the requirements of the
American Society of Mechanical
Engineers Boiler and Pressure Vessel
Code, Section VIII, Rules for
Construction of Unfired Pressure
Vessels, 1963 be examined quarterly by
a competent person and subjected to a
yearly hydrostatic pressure test. A
certification record of such
examinations and tests shall be
maintained.

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 proposing to increase the
existing burden hour estimate for the
collection of information requirements
specified by the Standards from 3,137
hours to 3,163 hours, a total increase of
26 hours. As a result of the Standards
Improvement Project Phase III (SIP–III)
Final Rule, the Agency identified new
requirements for employers to have
permanently affixed labels attached to
slings and shackles as prescribed by the
manufacturer’s recommendations. The
Agency will summarize any comments
submitted in response to this notice and
will include this summary in its request
to OMB.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Shipyard Employment
Standards (29 CFR part 1915).
OMB Number: 1218–0220.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits; Not-for-profit organizations;
Federal Government; State, Local, or
Tribal Government.
Number of Respondents: 635.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Average Time per Response: Varies
from 2 minutes (.03 hour) to maintain a
certification record to 35 minutes (.58
hour) to obtain certain information from
a manufacturer.
Estimated Total Burden Hours: 3,163.
Estimated Cost (Operation and
Maintenance): $0.
