Federal Register / Vol. 86, No. 247 / Wednesday, December 29, 2021 / Notices
rules under which employers may
qualify for an inspection exemption. To
satisfy the intent of these and other
sections of the OSH Act, OSHA codified
the terms that govern cooperative
agreements between OSHA and State
governments whereby State agencies
provide On-Site Consultation services to
private employers to assist them in
complying with the requirements of the
OSH Act. The terms were codified as
the Consultation Agreement regulations
(29 CFR part 1908).
The Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) is requesting
approval from the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB), pursuant to the
Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), to
conduct validity and reliability analyses
of a safety and health program (SHP)
assessment worksheet, the Draft Revised
Form 33 (DRF33), that will replace the
current SHP Assessment Worksheet,
OSHA Form 33, used by the OSHA OnSite Consultation Program (OMB #1218–
0110; Expiration Date: January 31,
2022). The studies that will be
conducted on the DRF33 will enable
OSHA to ensure that a valid, reliable,
and efficient tool is provided to On-Site
Consultation programs in the fifty (50)
states, the District of Columbia, and
several United States territories to
replace the current OSHA Form 33,
thereby, enhancing the quality of
consultative services.
The studies for which OSHA is
requesting approval will comprise a pretest (20 consultation visits; to assess
Pilot Study procedures and information
technology platform, and correct any
issues before launching the Pilot Study),
Pilot Study (300 consultation visits; to
assess the validity and reliability of the
DRF33), a follow-up study (30
consultation visits; to assess any
updates to the DRF33 resulting from
Pilot Study findings), and a Prospective
Analysis (conducted 12 months after the
Pilot Study to assess any impact of the
DRF33 at workplaces that received
consultation visits during the Pilot
Study).
After completing the Pilot Study
OSHA will request OMB approval
before implementing the DRF33 for use
by state On-Site Consultation programs
nationwide (to replace the current Form
33). Similarly, OSHA will seek OMB
approval if any additional updates are
made to the approved worksheet,
following the Prospective Analysis.
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 burden (time and costs) of the
information collection requirements,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Occupational Safety and Health
Act (OSH Act) and 29 CFR part 1904
prescribe that certain employers
maintain records of job-related injuries
and illnesses. The injury and illness
records are intended to have multiple
purposes. One purpose is to provide
data needed by OSHA to carry out
enforcement and intervention activities
to provide workers a safe and healthy
work environment. The data are also
needed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics
to report on the number and rate of
occupational injuries and illnesses in
the country. The data also provides
information to employers and workers
of the kinds of injuries and illnesses
occurring in the workplace and their
related hazards. Increased employer
awareness should result in the
identification and voluntary correction

VerDate Sep<11>2014

20:20 Dec 28, 2021

Jkt 256001

of hazardous workplace conditions.
Likewise, workers who are provided
information on injuries and illnesses
will be more likely to follow safe work
practices and report workplace hazards.
This would generally raise the overall
level of safety and health in the
workplace. This notice initiates the
process for OSHA to request an
extension of the current OMB approval.
This notice also solicits public
comments on OSHA’s existing
paperwork burden estimates from those
interested parties and seeks public
responses to several questions related to
the development of OSHA’s estimates.
Interested parties are requested to
review OSHA’s estimates, which are
based upon the most current data
available, and to comment on their
accuracy or appropriateness in today’s
workplace situation.
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 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 Action
OSHA is requesting that OMB revise
the approval of the information
collection requirements contained in 29
CFR part 1904, Recordkeeping and
Reporting Occupational Injuries and
Illnesses. The agency is requesting to
reduce the current burden hour estimate
associated with this regulation from
2,140,861 hours to 2,048,626 for a total
reduction of 92,235 hours. The agency
will summarize the comments
submitted in response to this notice and
will include this summary in the
request to OMB.
Type of Review: Revision of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Recordkeeping and Reporting
Occupational Injuries and Illnesses (29
CFR part 1904).
OMB Control Number: 1218–0176.

Jkt 256001

In July 2017, the NRC lowered the fee
assessed to applicants and licensees for
criminal history record checks from 26
dollars to 10 dollars to draw down on
a surplus balance of fee receipts. The
NRC’s CHP costs have historically been
fully covered from fees collected. Over
the past several years, the surplus
balance of CHP funding has been
exhausted, and the program is now
operating at a deficit.
Pursuant to requirements in the Chief
Financial Officers Act of 1990 (31
U.S.C.), the NRC conducts biennial
reviews of the charges assessed to
applicants and licensees for CHP
background checks to assess the
suitability of fees to cover both the cost
charged by the Federal Bureau of
Investigation (FBI) and the costs of NRC
to administer the program. The biennial
review completed in Fiscal Year (FY)
2019, concluded that the current fee of
10 dollars being charged to applicants
and licensees was not sufficient to
recover the full cost of administering the
program and the NRC should increase
its fee. During FY 2020, the fees charged
to applicants and licensees for CHP
records checks were not raised due to
the COVID–19 public health emergency
and a decision by the NRC to defer the
fee increase temporarily.
II. Discussion
The last biennial review completed by
NRC at the end of FY 2021 reaffirmed
that the current fee of 10 dollars being
charged to applicants and licensees was
not sufficient to recover the full cost of
administering the program, and the NRC
should increase its fee to 35 dollars.
This fee is the sum of the user fee
charged by the FBI ($11.25 effective
January 1, 2019) plus NRC’s direct and

indirect costs incurred in processing

As a reminder, payment is due upon
fingerprint card submission, and the
NRC’s preferred method of payment is
through Pay.gov at https://www.pay.gov
which includes payment by debit or
