SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
SUMMARY:

I. Background
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

E:\FR\FM\27APN1.SGM

requirements 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, the reporting burden
(time and costs) is minimal, the
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and OSHA’s estimate of the
information collection burden is
accurate. The Occupational Safety and
Health Act of 1970 (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 a minimum burden
upon employers, especially those
operating small businesses, and to
reduce to the maximum extent feasible
unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining said information (29 U.S.C.
657).
The following sections describe who
uses the information collected under
each requirement, as well as how they
use it. The purpose of these
requirements is to reduce employees’
risk of death or serious injury by
ensuring that equipment has been tested
and is in safe operating condition.
Manila rope and manila-rope slings
(paragraph 1915.112(a)(1))—The
employer must ensure that manila rope
and manila-rope slings have
permanently affixed and legible
identification markings as prescribed by
the manufacturer that indicate the
recommended safe working load for the
type(s) of hitch(es) used, the angle upon
which it is based, and the number of
legs if more than one.
Wire rope and wire-rope slings
(paragraph 1915.112(b)(1)(i))—The
employer must ensure that wire rope
and wire-rope slings have permanently
affixed and legible identification
markings as prescribed by the
manufacturer that indicate the
recommended safe working load for the
type(s) of hitch(es) used, the angle upon
which it is based, and the number of
legs if more than one.
Chain and chain slings (paragraph
1915.112(c)(1)(i))—The employer must
ensure that chain and chain slings have
permanently affixed and legible
identification markings as prescribed by
the manufacturer that indicate the
recommended safe working load for the
type(s) of hitch(es) used, the angle upon
which it is based, and the number of
legs if more than one.
Chain and chain slings (paragraph
1915.112(c)(2))—The employer shall
visually inspect all sling chains,

VerDate Sep<11>2014

18:52 Apr 26, 2021

Jkt 253001

including end fastenings, before being
used on the job, as well as every three
months. The inspection shall include
inspection for wear, defective welds,
deformation and increase in length or
stretch. Each chain shall bear an
indication of the month in which it was
thoroughly inspected.
Shackles (paragraph
1915.113(a)(1))—The employer must
ensure that shackles have permanently
affixed and legible identification
markings as prescribed by the
manufacturer that indicate the
recommended safe working load.
Test Records for Hooks (paragraph
1915.113(b)(1))—This paragraph
requires that the manufacturer’s
recommendations be followed in
determining the safe working loads of
the various sizes and types of hooks. If
the manufacturer’s recommendations
are not available, the hook must be
tested to twice the intended safe
working load before it is initially put
into use. The employer must maintain
and keep readily available a certification
record which includes the date of such
test, the signature of the person who
performed the test, and an identifier for
the hook which was tested.
The records are used to assure that
equipment has been properly tested.
The records also provide the most
efficient means for the compliance
officers to determine that an employer is
complying with the Standard.
Mobile Crawler or Truck Cranes Used
on a Vessel (paragraph 1915.115(c))—
This paragraph requires that the
maximum manufacturer’s rated safe
working loads for the various working
radii of the boom and the maximum and
minimum radii at which the boom may
be safely used with and without
outriggers shall be conspicuously posted
near the controls and shall be visible to
the operator.
Examination and Test Records for
Unfired Pressure Vessels (paragraphs
1915.172(b) and (d))—Paragraph (b)
requires that portable, unfired pressure
vessels not built to the requirements of
the American Society of Mechanical
Engineers Boiler and Pressure Vessel
Code, Section VIII, Rules for
Construction of Unfired Pressure
Vessels, 1963 be examined quarterly by
a competent person and subjected to a
yearly hydrostatic pressure test. A
certification record of such
examinations and tests shall be
maintained as specified by paragraph
(d).

• 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
OSHA is requesting an adjustment
decrease in the existing burden hour
estimates for the collection of
information requirements specified by
the Standards from 11,813 hours to
10,610 hours, a total difference of 1,203
hours. This decrease is due to a change
in the number of establishments. In this
ICR, the scope of the maritime standards
in 29 CFR 1915 for slings, shackles, and
hooks are based on the Final Economic
Analysis for the Final Rule revising
subpart F of 29 CFR part 1915 prepared
by OSHA’s Office of Regulatory
Analysis. As a result of the Final Rule,
the revision of the standard applies to
all shipyard employment which is
defined in § 1915.4(i) as ship repairing,
shipbuilding, shipbreaking, and related
employment. Also, upon further
analysis, the agency identified two new
collections of information contained in
the Standard under paragraphs
§§ 1915.112(c)(2) and 1915.115(c)(1).
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 a
currently approved collection.
Title: Shipyard Employment
Standards (29 CFR part 1915).
OMB Number: 1218–0220.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits; Not-for-profit organizations;
Federal Government; State, Local, or
Tribal Government.
Number of Respondents: 4,726.

Average Time per Response: Various.
Estimated Total Burden Hours:
10,522.
Estimated Cost (Operation and
Maintenance): $0.
