Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 99 / Tuesday, May 22, 2018 / Notices

—Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and/or
—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.
Overview of this information
collection:
1. Type of Information Collection:
Revision of Existing Collection.
2. The Title of the Form/Collection:
Office for Victims of Crime Training and
Technical Assistance Center—
Trafficking Information Management
System (TIMS).
3. The agency form number: NA.
4. Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract:
Primary: OVC Grantees.
Abstract: The current package for
OMB approval is designed to simplify
performance reporting for OVC grantees
through the OVC Trafficking
Information Management System
(TIMS) Online system, a Web-based
database and reporting system for the
Victims of Human Trafficking Grant and
the Enhanced Collaborative Model
Grant initiatives. OVC will require OVC
Grantees to use this electronic tool to
submit grant performance data,
including demographics about human
trafficking victims. Since 2012, OVC has
published annual analyses of these data
to provide the crime victims’ field with
stronger evidence for practices and
programs.
5. An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: There are approximately 60
OVC Services to Victims of Human
Trafficking Grantees per six-month
reporting period. On average, it should
take each grantee one hour to seven
hours, depending on client case load per
reporting period, to enter information
into TIMS Online. There are two
reporting periods per year.
6. An estimate of the total public
burden (in hours) associated with the
collection: 480 hours (average 60 OVC
grantees * average 4 hours * 2 times per
year).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of its
continuing effort to reduce paperwork
and respondent (i.e., employer) burden,
conducts a preclearance process 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 OSHA to obtain such
information with minimum burden
upon employers, especially those
operating small businesses, and to
reduce to the maximum extent feasible
unnecessary duplication of effort in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The purpose of the information
collection requirements specified in the
Permit-Required Confined Spaces
Standard (29 CFR 1910.146) is to ensure
that employers systematically evaluate
the dangers in permit spaces before
entry is attempted, and to ensure that

E:\FR\FM\22MYN1.SGM

22MYN1

amozie on DSK3GDR082PROD with NOTICES1

Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 99 / Tuesday, May 22, 2018 / Notices
adequate measures are taken to make
the spaces safe for entry. Section
1910.146(c)(2) requires the employer to
post danger signs to inform exposed
employees of the existence and location
of, and the dangers posed by, permit
spaces.
Section 1910.146(c)(4) requires the
employer to develop and implement a
written ‘‘permit-space program’’ when
the employer decides that its employees
will enter permit spaces. The written
program is to be made available for
inspection by employees and their
authorized representatives. Section
1910.146(d) provides the employer with
the requirements of a permit-required
confined space program.
Section 1910.146(c)(5)(i)(E) requires
that the determinations and supporting
data specified by paragraphs (c)(5)(i)(A),
(c)(5)(i)(B), and (c)(5)(i)(C) of this
section are documented by the employer
and are made available to each
employee who enters a permit space or
to that employee’s authorized
representative. Under paragraph
(c)(5)(ii)(H) of § 1910.146, the employer
is required to verify that the space is
safe for entry and that the pre-entry
measures required by paragraph
(c)(5)(ii) of this section have been taken,
using a written certification that
contains the date, the location of the
space, and the signature of the person
providing the certification. The
certification is to be made before entry
and is required to be made available to
each employee entering the space or to
that employee’s authorized
representative.
Section 1910.146(c)(7)(iii) requires the
employer to document the basis for
determining that all hazards in a permit
space have been eliminated using a
certification that contains the date, the
location of the space, and the signature
of the person making the determination.
The certification is to be made available
to each employee entering the space or
to that employee’s authorized
representative.
Section 1910.146(c)(8)(i) requires the
employer to inform the contractor that
the workplace contains permit spaces
and that permit space entry is allowed
only through compliance with a permit
space program meeting the requirements
of this section. Section 1910.146(c)(8)(ii)
requires the employer to apprise the
contractor of the elements, including the
hazards identified and the host
employer’s experience with the space,
that make the space in question a permit
space. Section 1910.146(c)(8)(iii)
requires the employer to apprise the
contractor of any precautions or
procedures that the host employer has
implemented for the protection of

VerDate Sep<11>2014

16:47 May 21, 2018

Jkt 241001

employees in or near permit spaces
where contractor personnel will be
working. Section 1910.146(c)(8)(v)
requires the employer to debrief the
contractor at the conclusion of the entry
operations about the permit space
program that was followed, and any
hazards confronted or created in permit
spaces during entry operations.
Section 1910.146(c)(9)(iii) requires the
contractor to inform the host employer
of the permit space program that the
contractor will follow and of any
hazards confronted or created in permit
spaces, either through a debriefing or
during the entry operation.
Section 1910.146(d)(5)(vi) requires the
employer to immediately provide each
authorized entrant or that an employee’s
authorized representative with the
results of any testing conducted in
accord with paragraph (d) of the
Standard. Section 1910.146(d)(14)
requires employers to review the permit
space program, using the canceled
permits retained under paragraph (e)(6)
within 1 year after each entry to ensure
that employees participating in entry
operations are protected from permit
space hazards, and revise the program
as necessary.
Section 1910.146(e)(1) requires the
employer to document the completion
of measures required by paragraph (d)(3)
by preparing an entry permit before
employee entry is authorized. Paragraph
(f) of § 1910.146 specifies the
information to be included on the entry
permit. Paragraph (e)(3) requires the
employer to make the completed permit
available at the time of entry to all
authorized entrants by posting the
permit at the entry portal or by any
other equally effective means, so that
the entrants can confirm that pre-entry
preparations have been completed.
Paragraph (e)(6) requires the employer
to retain each canceled entry permit for
at least one year; any problems
encountered during an entry operation
must be noted on the pertinent permit
so that revisions to the permit space
program can be made.
Section 1910.146(g)(4) requires the
employer to certify that the training
required by paragraphs (g)(1) through
(g)(3) has been accomplished by
preparing a written certification record.
Section 1910.146(h)(3) requires the
employer to ensure that all authorized
entrants communicate with the
attendant as necessary to enable the
attendant to monitor entrant status and
to enable the attendant to alert entrants
of the need to evacuate the space as
required by paragraph (l)(6) of the
Standard. Section 1910.146(h)(4)
requires the employer to ensure that all
authorized entrants alert the attendant

PO 00000

Frm 00101

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

23725

whenever the entrant recognizes any
warning sign or symptom of exposure to
a dangerous situation (paragraph
(h)(4)(i)), or the entrant detects a
prohibited condition (paragraph
(h)(4)(ii)).
Section 1910.146(i)(5) requires the
employer to ensure that each attendant
communicate with authorized entrants
as necessary to monitor entrant status
and to alert entrants of the need to
evacuate the space under the conditions
specified in paragraphs (i)(6)(i)-(i)(6)(iv)
of the Standard. Section 1910.146(i)(7)
requires the employer to ensure that the
attendant summon rescue and other
emergency services as soon as the
attendant determines that authorized
entrants may need assistance to escape
from permit space hazards. Section
1910.146(i)(8) requires the employer to
ensure that the attendant warn
unauthorized persons that they must
stay away from the permit space
(paragraph (i)(8)(i)); advise
unauthorized persons that they must
exit immediately if they have entered
the permit space (paragraph (i)(8)(ii));
and inform authorized entrants and the
entry supervisor if unauthorized
persons have entered the permit space
(paragraph (i)(8)(iii)).
Section 1910.146(j)(2) requires the
employer to ensure that each entry
supervisor verifies, by checking that the
appropriate entries have been made on
the permit, that all tests specified by the
permit have been conducted and that all
procedures and equipment specified by
the permit are in place, before endorsing
the permit and allowing entry to begin.
Section 1910.146(k)(1)(i) requires the
employer to evaluate a prospective
rescuer’s ability to respond to a rescue
summons in a timely manner,
considering the hazard(s) identified;
Section 1910.146(k)(1)(ii) requires the
employer to evaluate a prospective
rescue service’s ability, in terms of
proficiency with rescue-related tasks
and equipment, to function
appropriately while rescuing entrants
from the particular permit space or
types of permit spaces identified.
Section 1910.146(k)(1)(iv) requires the
employer to inform each rescue team or
service of the hazards they may confront
when called on to perform rescue at the
site. Section 1910.146(k)(1)(v) requires
the employer to provide the rescue team
or service selected with access to all
permit spaces from which rescue may
be necessary so that the rescue service
can develop appropriate rescue plans.
Section 1910.146(k)(4) requires that, if
an injured entrant is exposed to a
substance for which a ‘‘Material Safety
Data Sheet’’ (MSDS) [now referred to as
an SDS (Safety Data Sheet)] or other

E:\FR\FM\22MYN1.SGM

22MYN1

23726

similar written information is required
to be kept at the worksite, then the
employer must make the MSDS or
written information available to the
medical facility treating the exposed
entrant.
Section 1910.146(l)(1) requires
employers to consult with affected
employees and their authorized
representatives on the development and
implementation of all aspects of the
permit space program required by
paragraph (c). Section 1910.146(l)(2)
requires employers to make all
information required by this section
available to affected employees and
their authorized representatives.
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.
