state’s existing wage record files to
capture which quarter the individuals
who received reemployment services
became employed, what wages they
earned, and whether the individuals
receiving services changed industries.
Section 303(a)(6), SSA, authorizes this
information collection.
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is
generally not required to respond to an
information collection, unless it is
approved by OMB under the PRA and
displays a currently valid OMB Control
Number. In addition, notwithstanding
any other provisions of law, no person
shall generally be subject to penalty for
failing to comply with a collection of
information that does not display a
valid Control Number. See 5 CFR
1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
Interested parties are encouraged to
provide comments to the contact shown
in the ADDRESSES section. Comments
must be written to receive
consideration, and they will be
summarized and included in the request
for OMB approval of the final ICR. In
order to help ensure appropriate
consideration, comments should
mention OMB Control Number 1205–
0353.
Submitted comments will also be a
matter of public record for this ICR and
posted on the internet, without
redaction. DOL encourages commenters
not to include personally identifiable
information, confidential business data,
or other sensitive statements/
information in any comments.
DOL is particularly interested in
comments that:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• 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).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background
Gamma radiation occurs where
radioactive materials are present. It has
been associated with lung cancer and
other debilitating occupational diseases.
Natural sources include rocks, soils, and
ground water. Gamma radiation hazards
may be found near radiation sources at
surface operations using X-ray
machines, weightometers, nuclear and
diffraction units. Nuclear gauges
mounted outside tanks, pipes, bins,
hoppers or other types of vessels;
gamma rays are used to sense the level
and density of liquids, slurries or solids.
Gamma rays penetrate the body and can
kill or damage cells in their path that
can affect many of the body’s organs.
The adverse health effects from
exposure to gamma radiation can vary
depending upon the type of cell affected
and the extent of damage.
Under Section 103(c) of the Federal
Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977
(Mine Act), the Mine Safety and Health
Administration (MSHA) is required to
‘‘. . . issue regulations requiring
operators to maintain accurate records
of employee exposures to potentially
toxic materials or harmful physical
agents which are required to be
monitored or measured under any
applicable mandatory health or safety
standard promulgated under this Act.’’
In addition, 30 CFR 57.5047(a) requires
that gamma radiation surveys be
conducted annually in all underground
mines where radioactive ores are mined.
30 CFR 57.5047(c) requires that gamma
radiation dosimeters be provided for all
persons exposed to average gamma
radiation measurements in excess of 2.0
milliroentgens per hour in the working

place. This paragraph also requires the
operator keep records of cumulative
individual gamma radiation exposures.

I. Background
On January 23, 2013, the Mine Safety
and Health Administration (MSHA)
published Pattern of Violations (POV)
final rule (78 FR 5056). Under the Mine
Act, MSHA is required to issue a pattern
of violations notice to any mine operator
that demonstrates a disregard for the
health and safety of miners through a
pattern of significant and substantial
violations. A significant and substantial
violation is one that contributes to a
safety or health hazard that is
reasonably likely to result in a
reasonably serious injury or illness. The
pattern of violations provision helps to
ensure that mine operators manage
health and safety conditions at mines
and find and fix the root causes of
significant and substantial violations
before they become a hazard to miners.
The final rule simplified the pattern of
violations criteria, to improve
consistency in applying the criteria, and
increase the efficiency and effectiveness
in issuance of a pattern of violations
notice, which will result in a closure
order for areas of a mine where a
significant and substantial violation
occurs. This collection encourages
chronic violators to comply with the
Mine Act and MSHA’s safety and health
standards. Paragraph 30 CFR 104.2(a)(8)
provides that MSHA will consider
mitigating circumstances in determining
whether to issue a pattern of violations
notice. Among the items MSHA could
consider is an approved corrective
action program to reduce significant and
substantial violations accompanied by
positive results.
II. Desired Focus of Comments
MSHA is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed information
collection related to Pattern of
Violations. MSHA is particularly
interested in comments that:
• Evaluate whether the collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
