These records will be used by employers, employees, physicians and the Government to ensure that employees are not harmed by exposure to lead in the workplace.

Burden decreases because of Program Change due to Agency Discretion: No

Burden Reduction Due to:

Short Statement: The Agency is requesting a burden hour adjustment of 96,628. The increase is due to an estimated overall increase in the number of firms, based on updated data and estimates. Additionally, under Item 13, although there are estimated increases in operation and maintenance costs for exposure monitoring samples, analysis and equipment, biological monitoring tests, and medical exams, there is an estimated decrease in operation and maintenance costs of $3,161,797, from $63,254,812 to $60,093,015. The decreased cost under Item 13 is primarily the result of the decreased number of estimated firms, workers and projects in specific industries conducting periodic exposure measurement and periodic medical surveillance. Upon further analysis, the requirement that employers provide training to workers is not considered to be a collection of information. In addition, the requirements that employers make copies of the Standard and appendices readily available to affected workers and provide to workers, upon request, information and training program materials made available to the employer by OSHA are not considered to be collections of information. Therefore, OSHA removed the burden hours and costs associated with these requirements. Lastly, upon further review, OSHA has determined that new employers may spend 8 hours developing worker training and information programs.
