on March 27, 2014, based on a
complaint filed by Ivoclar Vivadent AG
of Schaan, Liechtenstein; Ivoclar
Vivadent, Inc. of Amherst, New York;
and Ivoclar Vivadent Manufacturing Inc.
of Somerset, New Jersey (collectively,
‘‘Ivoclar’’). 79 FR 17180, 17180–81 (Mar.
27, 2014). The complaint alleges
violations of Section 337 of the Tariff
Act of 1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C.
1337, in the importation into the United
States, the sale for importation, and the
sale within the United States after
importation of certain lithium silicate
materials and products containing the
same by reason of infringement of
certain claims of U.S. Patent Nos.
8,047,021 and 8,444,756. Id. at 17180.
The notice of investigation names as
respondents Dentsply International Inc.
of York, Pennsylvania; Dentsply
Prosthetics U.S. LLC, a/k/a Dentsply
Ceramco, of York, Pennsylvania; and
DeguDent GmbH of Hanau-Wolfgang,
Germany (collectively, ‘‘Respondents’’).
Id. at 17181. The Office of Unfair Import
Investigations (OUII) also was named as
a party to the investigation. Id.
On October 29, 2014, Ivoclar and
Respondents filed a joint motion to
terminate this investigation in its
entirety on the basis of a settlement
agreement. On November 6, 2014, the
Commission Investigative Staff (‘‘Staff’’)
filed a response supporting the motion.
On November 10, 2014, the presiding
administrative law judge (‘‘ALJ’’) issued
Order No. 16, granting the motion. The
ALJ found that the joint motion
complies with the Commission Rules.
Specifically, the ALJ found that (1) the
moving parties submitted their
settlement agreement and a statement
that they have no other agreements
concerning the subject matter of this
investigation and (2) the moving parties
and Staff believe that granting the

motion would not be contrary to the
public interest. The ALJ also noted that
termination of litigation under these
circumstances as an alternative method
of dispute resolution is generally in the
public interest and will conserve public
and private resources. No petitions for
review were filed.
The Commission has determined not
to review the subject ID.

determination is contained in section
337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

emcdonald on DSK67QTVN1PROD 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
(PRA–95)(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

VerDate Sep<11>2014

02:54 Dec 13, 2014

Jkt 235001

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 Standard entitled ‘‘Occupational
Exposure to Hazardous Chemicals in
Laboratories’’ (29 CFR 1910.1450; the
‘‘Standard’’) applies to laboratories that
use hazardous chemicals in accord with
the Standard’s definitions for
‘‘laboratory use of hazardous chemicals’’
and ‘‘laboratory scale.’’ The Standard
requires these laboratories to maintain
worker exposures at or below the
permissible exposure limits specified
for the hazardous chemicals in 29 CFR
part 1910, subpart Z. The laboratories
do so by developing a written Chemical
Hygiene Plan (CHP) that describes the
following: standard operating
procedures for using hazardous
chemicals; hazard-control techniques;
equipment-reliability measures; worker
information and training programs;
conditions under which the employer
must approve operations, procedures,
and activities before implementation;
and medical consultations and
examinations. The CHP also designates
personnel responsible for implementing
the CHP, and specifies the procedures to
be used to provide additional protection
to workers exposed to particularly
hazardous chemicals.
Other information collection
requirements of the Standard include:
documenting exposure monitoring
results; notifying workers in writing of
these results; presenting specified
information and training to workers;
establishing a medical surveillance
program for overexposed workers;
providing required information to the
physician; obtaining the physician’s
written opinion on using proper
respiratory equipment; and establishing,
maintaining, transferring, and disclosing
exposure monitoring and medical
records. These collection of information
requirements, including the CHP,
control worker overexposure to
hazardous laboratory chemicals, thereby
preventing serious illnesses and death
among workers exposed to such
chemicals.

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 to protect workers,
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 extend the
information collection requirements
contained in the Occupational Exposure
to Hazardous Chemicals in Laboratories
Standard (29 CFR 1910.1450). The
Agency is requesting to increase the
existing burden hour estimate for the
collection of information requirements
in the Standard. In this regard, the
Agency is requesting to adjust the
current burden hour estimate from
293,373 to 332,350 hours a total
increase of 38,977 hours.
Type of Review: Extension of
currently approved collections.
Title: Occupational Exposure to
Hazardous Chemicals in Laboratories.
OMB Number: 1218–0131.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits.
Number of Respondents: 64,404.
Frequency of Responses: Annually;
monthly, quarterly, semi-annually, on
occasion.
Total Responses: 990,403.
Average Time per Response: Varies
from 3 minutes (.05 hour) to replace the
safe practice manual to 1 hour to
develop a new manual.
Estimated Total Burden Hours:
332,350.
Estimated Cost (Operation and
Maintenance): $0.
