SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine Act) section 101(a) provides that the Secretary of Labor shall develop, promulgate, and revise, as may be appropriate, improved mandatory health or safety standards for the protection of life and prevention of injuries in coal or other mines. In addition, Mine Act section 103(h) mandates that mine operators keep any records and make any reports that are reasonably necessary for the MSHA to perform its duties under the Mine Act. The MSHA established standards and regulations for diesel-powered equipment in underground coal mines that provide additional important protection for coal miners who work on and around diesel-powered equipment. The standards were designed to reduce the risks to underground coal miners of serious health hazards that are associated with exposure to high concentrations of diesel particulate matter. The standards contain information collection requirements for underground coal mine operators in 30 CFR 72.503 (d), 72.510, 72.520, and 75.1915. As a result of 39 CFR 72.500, manufacturers of diesel equipment are affected under 30 CFR parts 7 or 36. This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and the public is generally not required to respond to an information collection, unless it is currently approved by the OMB under the PRA and displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, notwithstanding any other provisions of law, no person shall generally be subject to penalty for failing to comply with a collection of information if the collection of information does not display a currently valid OMB control number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this information collection under OMB Control Number 1219–0124. The current OMB approval is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2010; however, it should be noted that information collections submitted to the OMB receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review.
