SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

khammond on DSK9W7S144PROD with NOTICES

A. Purpose
The Federal Acquisition Regulation
(FAR) Clause 52.222–8 Payrolls and
Basic Records requires United States
construction contracts in excess of
$2,000 to submit weekly for each week
in which any contract work is
performed a copy of all payrolls to the
Contracting Officer. The clause allows
contractors to submit the required
weekly payroll information using the
DOL WH–347 form or any other form
desired. GSA deviated from the FAR
clause to allow these construction
contractors to use an electronic means
to submit the required weekly payroll
data. The proposed revision will
increase the efficiency of the weekly
payroll certification process for the
contractor, GSA and the contractor’s
employee through the use of an
automated process. The current manual
process for reviewing weekly certified
payroll data requires an enormous
amount of labor hours and has a large
probability of human error, i.e. nonidentification or delayed identification
of errors in pay for covered workers.
Delays in identifying payroll errors are
costly to the contractor who will need
to pay retroactive wage adjustments and
the employee will have suffered
reduced economic purchase power due
to the error in wages.

SAM.gov reports for Fiscal Year 2023.
The report indicated 182 construction
contractors for GSA projects were
subject to the Davis-Bacon or Related
Act. GSA’s automation of the data
collection process will not increase the
existing data collection burden from the
DOL Wage and Hour Division (WHD)
the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) Information Control No. 1235–
0008, Davis-Bacon Certified Payroll or
1235–0018, Records to be kept by
Employers—Fair Labor Standards Act.
Respondents: 182 (170 prime
contractors plus 12 subcontractors).
Responses per Respondent: 52 (1 for
each week of the year).
Total Annual Responses: 9,464 (182
respondents × 52 responses).
Hours per Response: 33 minutes
(weighted average of 56 minutes (DOL
estimated time to input information
plus 1 minute recordkeeping for initial
entry) + 31 minutes (estimated time to
certify payroll in new system plus 1
minute recordkeeping).
Total Burden Hours: 5,205 (9,464
annual responses × 33 minutes) ÷ 60
minutes).
C. Public Comments
Public comments are particularly
invited on: Whether this collection of
information is necessary, whether it will
have practical utility; whether our
estimate of the public burden of this
collection of information is accurate,
and based on valid assumptions and
methodology; ways to enhance the
quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected; and ways in
which we can minimize the burden of
the collection of information on those
who are to respond, through the use of
appropriate technological collection
techniques or other forms of information
technology.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA)
(44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), federal agencies
must obtain approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for each
collection of information they conduct
or sponsor. In addition, the PRA also
requires federal agencies to provide a
60-day notice in the Federal Register
concerning each proposed collection of
information, including each new
proposed collection, each proposed
extension of existing collection of
information, and each reinstatement of
previously approved information
collection before submitting the
collection to the OMB for approval. To
comply with this requirement, we are
publishing this notice of a proposed
data collection as described below.
The OMB is particularly interested in
comments that will help:
1. 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;
2. 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;
3. Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected;
4. 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 submissions
of responses; and
5. Assess information collection costs.
Proposed Project
Assessing Respirator Perceptions,
Experiences, and Maintenance (OMB

Control No. 0920–1378, Exp. 11/30/
2025)—Extension—National Institute
for Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH), Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention (CDC).
Background and Brief Description
The Centers for Disease Control and
Prevention (CDC), National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH), is requesting approval of a
three-year Extension for the Generic
information collection request (ICR)
titled ‘‘Assessing Respirator
Perceptions, Experiences, and
Maintenance.’’
The National Personal Protective
Technology Laboratory (NPPTL) is a
division of NIOSH. NPPTL was
established in 2001, at the request of
Congress, with the mission of
preventing disease, injury, and death for
the millions of working men and
women relying on personal protective
technology (PPT). As the nation’s
respirator approver for all workplaces
(42 CFR part 84), the development of
NPPTL filled a need for improved
personal protective equipment (PPE)
and focused research into PPT. To this
end, NPPTL conducts respiratory
protection research and leads the
development and revision of test
methods necessary for respirator
approval to prevent exposures to
inhalation hazards, dermal hazards, and
any other hazardous environmental
threats within an occupational setting.
Federal regulations exist regarding the
use of respirators in the workplace. The
Occupational Safety and Health
Administration (OSHA) requires
employers whose hazard management
includes the use of respirators to have
a respiratory protection program, which
has specified components. Thus, the
information collected from human
subjects about their use of respirators is
generally consistent across NPPTL
studies with only the use conditions
changing (e.g., respirator type or
management implementation practices
related to cleaning/decontamination, fit

testing, and training). NPPTL requests a
three-year Extension to its Generic ICR
package for information collected from
individual workers and managers
related to the perceptions, maintenance,
and evaluation of respirator use on the
job.
Different types of data collection
including surveys, focus groups,
interviews, and physiological
monitoring will be used to: (1) assess
workers’ health and safety knowledge,
attitudes, skills, and other attributes as
they relate to their respiratory
protection use and maintenance; (2)
identify and overcome barriers that
workers face while using respiratory
protection to prevent exposure to
contaminants and other hazards; (3)
understand organizations’ maintenance
of respiratory protection programs
(RPP), directives, and guidelines that
support worker best practices; and (4)
determine appropriate training,
interventions, and programs that
support activities around respirator use
and maintenance. Data collection may
focus on respirator types ubiquitous to
the industry being studied, new to the
industry being studied, or novel to any
industry. These data collection efforts
may occur either electronically or in the
field.
Respondents are expected to include
a variety of employees from occupations
such as public safety and emergency
response, healthcare, and social
assistance occupations who wear or
manage respirator use on the job.
Expected respondent job roles include
industrial hygienists, occupational
health professionals, infection control
professionals, physicians, nurse
practitioners, nurses, infection
preventionists, fire department chiefs,
battalion chiefs, sheriffs, shift
supervisors, firefighters, police officers,
and paramedics.
CDC requests OMB approval for an
estimated 13,071 burden hours. There is
no cost to respondents other than their
time to participate.
