SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014
19:38 Dec 15, 2014
This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Forging Machines information
collection. Under regulations 29 CFR
1910.218, it is mandatory for covered
employers to conduct and to document
periodic inspections of forging
machines, guards, and point-ofoperation protection devices and to
mark manually controlled valves and
switches. These requirements reduce
workers’ risks of death or serious injury
by ensuring that forging machines used
by them are in safe operating condition
and that the workers are able to identify
manually operated valves and switches.
Occupational Safety and Health Act
sections 2, 6, and 8 authorize this
information collection. See 29 U.S.C.
651, 655, and 657.
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
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 that does not
display a valid Control Number. See 5
CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL
obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1218–0228.
OMB authorization for an ICR cannot
be for more than three (3) years without
renewal, and the current approval for
this collection is scheduled to expire on
January 31, 2015. The DOL seeks to
extend PRA authorization for this
information collection for three (3) more
years, without any change to existing
requirements. The DOL notes that
existing information collection
requirements submitted to the OMB
receive a month-to-month extension
while they undergo review. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
June 30, 2014 (79 FR 36832).

Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of

the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within thirty (30) days of
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register. In order to help ensure
appropriate consideration, comments
should mention OMB Control Number
1218–0228. The OMB is particularly
interested in comments that:
• 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;
• 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;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• 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 submission of
responses.
