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 consultation
program to provide the public with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and continuing collections of
information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(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

Frm 00078

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

37117

unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The basic purpose of the collections
of information in the Ionizing Radiation
Standard is to document that employers
are providing their workers with
protection from ionizing radiation
exposure. The collections of information
contained in the Standard include:
Monitoring worker exposure to ionizing
radiation, posting caution signs at
radiation areas, reporting worker
overexposures to OSHA, maintaining
exposure records, and providing
exposure records to current and former
workers.
II. Special Issues for Comment
OSHA has a particular interest in
comments on the following issues:
• Whether the proposed collections of
information 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
collections of information, 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
OSHA is requesting an adjustment
increase of 6,719 burden hours from
45,217 to 51,936 hours. This increase is
the result of an adjustment of the
number of establishments and workers
used in this analysis based on updated
data. The increase is off-set by a
reduction in burden hours due to the
determination that employers providing
training to workers under paragraph
(i)(2) is not considered to be a collection
of information. Also, the increase is offset by a reduction in the predicted
number of notification of incidents
(paragraph (l)) and of overexposure and
excessive levels and concentrations
(paragraph (m)). The total estimated
number of establishments affected by
the regulation increased from 12,719 to
13,012, a total adjustment of 293 more
establishments.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Ionizing Radiation Standard (29
CFR 1910.1096).
OMB Control Number: 1218–0103.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits.
Number of Respondents: 13,012.
