This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Respirator Program Records information
collection requirements contained in
regulations 30 CFR 56.5005 and 57–
5005, which provide that, generally,
whenever respiratory equipment is
used, the metal or nonmetal mine
operator must institute a respirator
program governing selection,
maintenance, training, fitting,
supervision, cleaning, and use of
respirators. These regulations seek to
control miner exposure to harmful
airborne contaminants by using
engineering controls to prevent
contamination and to vent or to dilute
any contaminated air. The regulations
include information collections related
to the development of a respirator
program that addresses the selection,
use, and care of respirators; fit-testing
records used to ensure that a respirator
worn by an individual is the same
brand, model, and size respirator that
was worn when that individual
successfully passed a fit-test; and
records kept of inspection dates and
findings for respirators maintained for
emergency use. The mine operator uses
the information to issue proper
respiratory protection to miners when
feasible engineering and/or
administrative controls do not reduce
miners’ exposures to permissible levels.

The MSHA uses the information to
determine compliance with the
standard. Mine Safety and Health Act of
1977 section 103(h) authorizes this
information collection. See 30 U.S.C.
813(h).
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 1219–0048.
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
July 31, 2017. 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
March 7, 2017 (43 FR 12855).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
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
1219–0048. 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
