SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

collections of information which are
used by employers to ensure that
employees are properly informed about
the safety and health hazards associated
with marine terminals and longshoring
operations. OSHA uses the records
developed in response to the collection
of information requirements to find out
if the employer is complying adequately
with the provisions of the standards.

I. Background

OSHA is requesting that OMB extend
approval of the information collection
requirements contained in the standards
on Marine Terminals (29 CFR part 1917)
and Longshoring (29 CFR part 1918).
The agency is requesting a decrease in
the current burden hour estimate from
65,694 hours to 58,033, a difference of
7,661 hours. The adjustment in burden
is due to an increase in the number of
longshoring operations from 871 to 916
establishments, and a reduction in the
number of establishments in port and
harbor operations from 525 to 332
establishments. The Agency will
summarize any comments submitted in
response to this notice and will include
this summary in the request to OMB.
Type of Review: Extension of
currently approved collections.
Title: Marine Terminals (29 CFR part
1917) and Longshoring (29 CFR part
1918).
OMB Number: 1218–0196.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits; Not-for-profit organizations;
Federal Government; State, Local, or
Tribal Government.
Number of Respondents: 1,248.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Average Time per Response: Varies
from one minute (.02 hour) to 50 hours.
Estimated Total Burden Hours:
58,033.
Estimated Cost (Operation and
Maintenance): $0.

The Department of Labor, as part of a
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 (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).
The standards on Marine Terminals
and Longshoring contain a number of

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.
