SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

mstockstill on DSK4VPTVN1PROD 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 accord 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).

Jkt 226001

In the event a worker is injured while
operating a mechanical power press, 29
CFR 1910.217(g) requires an employer
to provide information to OSHA
regarding the accident within 30 days of
the accident. This information includes
the employer’s and worker’s name(s),
workplace address and location; injury
sustained; task being performed when
the injury occurred; number of operators
required for the operation and the
number of operators provided with
controls and safeguards; cause of the
accident; type of clutch, safeguard(s),
and feeding method(s) used; and means
used to actuate the press stroke. OSHA’s
Directorate of Standards and Guidance,
or the State agency administering a plan
approved by the Assistant Secretary of
Labor for Occupational Safety and
Health, collects the information. These
reports are a source of up-to-date
information on power press machines.
Particularly, this information identifies
the equipment used and conditions
associated with these injuries.
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 requirement contained in the
Standard on Reports of Injuries to
Employees Operating Mechanical Power
Presses (29 CFR 1910.217(g)). OSHA is
proposing to decrease the existing
burden hour estimate for the collection
of information requirement specified by
the Provision from 13 hours to 9 hours,
for a total decrease of 4 hours. This
adjustment is a result of a decline in the
number of reports received by OSHA
annually.
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.
