To accommodate UBS’s
organizational structure in a manner
consistent with the requirements of this

Compliance Officer has a reporting line
within UBS’s Compliance and
Operational Risk Control (C&ORC)
function to the Head of Compliance and
Operational Risk Control, Asset
Management. The C&ORC function is
organizationally independent of UBS’s
business divisions—including Asset

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
sradovich on DSK3GMQ082PROD 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 accordance 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
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).
Manufacturer’s Certification of
Modifications (§ 1910.67(b)(2)). The
Standard requires that when aerial lifts
are ‘‘field modified’’ for uses other than
those intended by the manufacturer, the
manufacturer or other equivalent entity,
such as a nationally recognized testing
laboratory, must certify in writing that
the modification is in conformity with
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:55 Feb 16, 2018
Jkt 244001
all applicable provisions of ANSI
A92.2–1969 and the OSHA standard
and that the modified aerial lift is at
least as safe as the equipment was
before modification. Employers are to
maintain the certification record and
make it available to OSHA compliance
officers upon request. This record
provides assurance to employers,
workers, and compliance officers that
the modified aerial lift is safe for use,
thereby preventing failure while
workers are being elevated. The
certification record also provides the
most efficient means for the compliance
officers to determine that an employer is
complying with the Standard.
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
There are no adjustments or program
changes associated with this package.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Vehicle-Mounted Elevating and
Rotating Work Platforms (Aerial Lifts)
(29 CFR 1910.67).
OMB Control Number: 1218–0230.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits.
Number of Respondents: 1,000.
Number of Responses: 1,000.
Frequency of Responses: On occasion.
Average Time per Response: Various.
Estimated Total Burden Hours: 20.
