Federal Register / Vol. 76, No. 203 / Thursday, October 20, 2011 / Notices
to the supply of third party medical
billing and coding services.
The petition filed on behalf of
‘‘medical coders’’ at Beacon Medical
Services, LLC, Aurora, Colorado, states
that ‘‘our jobs were outsourced to
India.’’
The negative determination was based
on the Department’s findings that
Beacon Medical Services does not
produce an article within the meaning
of Section 222(a) or Section 222(b) of
the Act. In order to be considered
eligible to apply for adjustment
assistance under Section 223 of the
Trade Act of 1974, the worker group
seeking certification (or on whose behalf
certification is being sought) must work
for a ‘‘firm’’ or appropriate subdivision
that produces an article.
Pursuant to 29 CFR 90.18(c),
administrative reconsideration may be
granted under the following
circumstances:
(1) If it appears on the basis of facts
not previously considered that the
determination complained of was
erroneous;
(2) If it appears that the determination
complained of was based on a mistake
in the determination of facts not
previously considered; or
(3) If in the opinion of the Certifying
Officer, a misinterpretation of facts or of
the law justified reconsideration of the
decision.
After the Trade Act of 2009 expired in
February 2011, petitions for TAA were
instituted under the Trade Adjustment
Assistance Reform Act of 2002 (Trade
Act of 2002). Therefore, the statute
applicable to TA–W–80,219 is the Trade
Act of 2002. The applicable regulation
is codified in 29 CFR Part 90, Subpart
B.
Section 222 of the Trade Act of 2002
establishes the worker group eligibility
requirements. The requirements include
either ‘‘imports of articles like or
directly competitive with articles
produced by such firm or subdivision
have increased’’ or ‘‘a shift in
production by such workers’ firm or
subdivision to a foreign country of
articles like or directly competitive with
articles which are produced by such
firm or subdivision.’’
In the request for reconsideration, the
petitioner asserts that Beacon Medical
Services ‘‘sent our jobs OVESEAS TO
INDIA.’’
A shift in the supply of services (or
like or directly competitive services) by
Beacon Medical Services to a foreign
country is not a basis for certification
under the criteria set forth by the Trade
Act of 2002.
After careful review of the request for
reconsideration, previously submitted

Jkt 226001

materials, the applicable statute, and
relevant regulation, the Department
determines that there is no new
information, mistake in fact, or
misinterpretation of the facts or of the
law.
Conclusion
After review of the application and
investigative findings, I conclude that
there has been no error or
misinterpretation of the law or of the
facts which would justify
reconsideration of the Department of
Labor’s prior decision. Accordingly, the
application is denied.
Signed at Washington, DC, this 4th day of
October, 2011.
Del Min Amy Chen,
Certifying Officer, Office of Trade Adjustment
Assistance.

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).
The information collection
requirements in the Inorganic Arsenic
Standard provide protection for workers
from the adverse health effects
associated with exposure to inorganic
arsenic. The Inorganic Arsenic Standard
requires employers to: monitor workers’
exposure to inorganic arsenic; monitor
worker health; develop and maintain
worker exposure monitoring and
medical records; establish and
implement written compliance
programs; and provide workers with
information about their exposures and
the health effects of exposure to
inorganic arsenic.

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
The Agency is requesting an
adjustment in the number of burden
hours from 385 to 637 due to an
increase in the number of
establishments from three to five. The
cost burden also increased from $31,165
to $54,197 due primarily to the increase
in the cost of medical examinations and
chest x-rays from $196 to $210.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Inorganic Arsenic Standard (29
CFR 1910.1018).
OMB Number: 1218–0104.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits.
Number of Respondents: 5.
