Appropriate Test Standards. Table 2

The American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) may approve the test
standards listed above as American
National Standards. However, for
convenience, we may use the
designation of the standards-developing
organization for the standard as opposed
to the ANSI designation. Under the
NRTL Program’s policy (see OSHA
Instruction CPL 1–0.3, Appendix C,
paragraph XIV), any NRTL recognized
for a particular test standard may use
either the proprietary version of the test
standard or the ANSI version of that
standard. Contact ANSI to determine
whether a test standard is currently
ANSI-approved.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of
the 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
requirements in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (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 (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

E:\FR\FM\31DEN1.SGM

61420

Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 247 / Wednesday, December 31, 2025 / Notices

injuries, illnesses, and accidents (29
U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act also requires
that OSHA 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 collection of information
provisions of the standard specifies
affixing identification tags or markings
on rigging equipment, marking special
custom design lifting accessories, shift
inspections, periodic inspections,
developing and maintaining inspection
records, and maintaining dates and
results of certain shackle/hook load
tests.

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 to protect workers,
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, and
transmission techniques.
III. Proposed Actions
OSHA is requesting that OMB extend
the approval of the information
collection requirements contained in the
Standard on Rigging Equipment for
Material Handling. The agency is
seeking to retain the same burden of
49,160 hours.
OSHA will summarize the comments
submitted in response to this notice and
will include this summary in the
request to OMB to extend the approval
of the information collection
requirements.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved data collection.
Title: Standard on Rigging Equipment
for Material Handling (29 CFR
1926.251).
OMB Control Number: 1218–0233.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits; Federal Government; State,
Local, or Tribal Government.
