Federal Register / Vol. 82, No. 111 / Monday, June 12, 2017 / Notices
Scope of Approval
The exemptions are applicable only to
the precise preparation or mixture
described in the application submitted
to DEA in the form(s) listed in this order
and only for those sections of the CSA
and the CFR that are specifically
identified. In accordance with 21 CFR
1308.24(h), any change in the
quantitative or qualitative composition
of the preparation or mixture, or change
in the trade name or other designation
of the preparation or mixture after the
date of application requires a new
application. In accordance with 21 CFR
1308.24(g), the DEA may prescribe
requirements other than those set forth
in 1308.24(b)–(e) on a case-by-case basis
for materials exempted in bulk
quantities. Accordingly, in order to limit
opportunity for diversion from the
larger bulk quantities, the DEA has
determined that each of the exempted
bulk products listed in this order may
only be used in-house by the
manufacturer, and may not be
distributed for any purpose, or
transported to other facilities.
Additional exempt chemical
preparation requests received between
April 1, 2016, and December 31, 2016,
and not otherwise referenced in this
order may remain under consideration
until the DEA receives additional
information required, pursuant to 21
CFR 1308.23(d), as detailed in separate
correspondence to individual
requesters. The DEA’s order on such
requests will be communicated to the
public in a future Federal Register
publication.
The DEA also notes that these
exemptions are limited to exemption
from only those sections of the CSA and
the CFR that are specifically identified
in 21 CFR 1308.24(a). All other
requirements of the CSA and the CFR
apply, including registration as an
importer as required by 21 U.S.C. 957.

Opportunity for Comment
Pursuant to 21 CFR 1308.23, any
interested person may submit written
comments on or objections to any
chemical preparation in this order that
has been approved or denied as exempt.
If any comments or objections raise
significant issues regarding any finding
of fact or conclusion of law upon which
this order is based, the Assistant
Administrator will immediately
suspend the effectiveness of any
applicable part of this order until he
may reconsider the application in light
of the comments and objections filed.

[OMB Control No. 1219–0NEW]

Proposed Extension of Information
Collection; Performance Reports for
MSHA Grants
Mine Safety and Health
Administration, Labor.
ACTION: Request for public comments.
AGENCY:

The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
collections of information in accordance
with the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995, 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A). This
program helps to assure that requested
data can be provided in the desired
format, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed. Currently, the Mine
Safety and Health Administration
(MSHA) is soliciting comments on the
information collection for Performance
Reports for MSHA Grants.
DATES: All comments must be received
on or before August 11, 2017.
ADDRESSES: Comments concerning the
information collection requirements of
this notice may be sent by any of the
methods listed below.
• Federal E-Rulemaking Portal:
http://www.regulations.gov. Follow the
on-line instructions for submitting

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Section 103(h) of the Federal Mine
Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine
Act), 30 U.S.C. 813(h), authorizes
MSHA to collect information necessary
to carry out its duty in protecting the
safety and health of miners. Further,
Sec. 101(a) of the Mine Act, 30 U.S.C.
811 authorizes the Secretary of Labor to
develop, promulgate, and revise as may
be appropriate, improved mandatory
health or safety standards for the
protection of life and prevention of
injuries in coal and metal and nonmetal
mines.
MSHA is requesting approval of a
new information collection for narrative
reporting of grant requirements. One of
MSHA’s strategic goals is to ‘‘improve
workplace safety and health’’ through
the strategic objective ‘‘secure safe and
healthy workplaces, particularly in
high-risk industries.’’ MSHA’s goal in
accomplishing this objective is to
‘‘prevent death, disease, and injury from
mining and promote safe and healthful
workplaces for the Nation’s miners.’’
Sec. 115 of the Mine Act, as amended,
requires mine operators to have a health
and safety training program. Under Sec.
503 of the Mine Act, as amended, the
Secretary may award grants to States to
assist in developing and enforcing State
mining laws and regulations, to improve
State workers’ compensation and
mining occupational disease laws and
programs, and to improve safety and
health conditions in the Nation’s mines
through Federal-State coordination and
cooperation.
Therefore, MSHA seeks the Office of
Management and Budget’s (OMB)
clearance of the information collections
the Department of Labor (DOL) requires
to carry out its grant program through
MSHA. This information collection
covers the performance reporting for
MSHA for Narrative Reports. MSHA is
seeking to transfer its DOL-approved
burden on the Narrative Reports under
OMB No. 1225–0086 to an MSHA
information collection.

Grantees are required by DOL
regulations to submit project and final
reports, as described below. Grantees
are also required to submit final reports
no later than 90 days after the end of the
grant period.
Technical Project Reports: A grantee
submits a technical project report to
MSHA no later than 30 days after
quarterly deadlines. Technical project
reports provide both quantitative and
qualitative information and a narrative
assessment of performance for the
preceding three-month period. This
includes the current grant progress
against the overall grant goals. Between
reporting dates, the grantee informs
MSHA of significant developments or
problems affecting the organization’s
ability to accomplish the work.
Final Reports: At the end of the grant
period, each grantee provides a project
summary of its technical project reports,
an evaluation report, and a close-out
financial report. These final reports are
due no later than 90 days after the end
of the 12-month performance period.
II. Desired Focus of Comments
MSHA is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed information
collection related to Performance
Reports for MSHA Grants. MSHA is
particularly interested in comments
that:
• Evaluate whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information has practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of MSHA’s
estimate of the burden of the collection
of information, including the validity of
the methodology and assumptions used;
• Suggest methods to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.
The information collection request
will be available on http://
www.regulations.gov. MSHA cautions
the commenter against providing any
information in the submission that
should not be publicly disclosed. Full
comments, including personal
information provided, will be made
available on www.regulations.gov and
www.reginfo.gov.
The public may also examine publicly
available documents at USDOL—Mine
