Federal Register / Vol. 70, No. 203 / Friday, October 21, 2005 / Notices
In the event that comments or
objections to this proposal raise one or
more issues which the Deputy
Administrator finds warrant a hearing,
the Deputy Administrator shall order a
public hearing by notice in the Federal
Register, summarizing the issues to be
heard and setting the time for the
hearing.
The Office of Management and Budget
has determined that notices of aggregate
production quotas are not subject to
centralized review under Executive
Order 12866.
This action does not preempt or
modify any provision of state law; nor
does it impose enforcement
responsibilities on any state; nor does it
diminish the power of any state to
enforce its own laws. Accordingly, this
action does not have federalism
implications warranting the application
of Executive Order 13132.
The Deputy Administrator hereby
certifies that this action will have no
significant impact upon small entities
whose interests must be considered
under the Regulatory Flexibility Act, 5
U.S.C. 601 et seq. The establishment of
aggregate production quotas for
Schedules I and II controlled substances
is mandated by law and by international
treaty obligations. The quotas are
necessary to provide for the estimated
medical, scientific, research and
industrial needs of the United States, for
export requirements and the
establishment and maintenance of
reserve stocks. While aggregate
production quotas are of primary
importance to large manufacturers, their
impact upon small entities is neither
negative nor beneficial. Accordingly, the
Deputy Administrator has determined
that this action does not require a
regulatory flexibility analysis.
This action meets the applicable
standards set forth in sections 3(a) and
3(b)(2) of Executive Order 12988 Civil
Justice Reform.
This action will not result in the
expenditure by State, local, and tribal
governments, in the aggregate, or by the
private sector, of $115,000,000 or more
in any one year, and will not
significantly or uniquely affect small
governments. Therefore, no actions were
deemed necessary under the provisions
of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act
of 1995.
This action is not a major rule as
defined by section 804 of the Small
Business Regulatory Enforcement
Fairness Act of 1996. This action will
not result in an annual effect on the
economy of $100,000,000 or more; a
major increase in costs or prices; or
significant adverse effects on
competition, employment, investment,

Submission for OMB Emergency
Review; Comment Request
October 17, 2005.
The Department of Labor has
submitted the following (see below)
information collection request (ICR),
utilizing emergency review procedures,
to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) for review and clearance in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104–13,
44 U.S.C. Chapter 35). OMB approval
has been requested by November 18,
2005. A copy of this ICR, with
applicable supporting documentation,
may be obtained by contacting Darrin
King at (202) 693–4129 (this is not a
toll-free number) or emailing
king.darrin@dol.gov.
Comments and questions about the
ICR listed below should be submitted to
the Office of Information and Regulatory
Affairs, Attn: OMB Desk Officer for the
Department of Labor Center for FaithBased and Community Initiatives, Office
of Management and Budget, Room
10235, Washington, DC 20503 (202–
395–7316), and received 5 days prior to
the requested OMB approval date. The
Office of Management and Budget is
particularly interested in comments
which:
• 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 submissions
of responses.

survey.
OMB Number: 1290–0NEW.
Frequency: One time.
Affected Public: State, Local, or Tribal
Government.
Number of Respondents:
Approximately 665.
Estimated Number of Responses: 532.
Estimated Time Per Respondent: 20
minutes.
Total Burden Hours: 180.
Total Burden Cost (capital/startup):

Total Burden Cost (operating/

Description: DOL currently does not
have a mechanism by which to obtain
information regarding the grants,
contracts, and cooperative agreements
being awarded by local and state WIBs
using Workforce Investment Act (WIA)
funds. It is critical that DOL begin to
obtain information about these grants,
contracts, and cooperative agreements
in order to better understand how much
money is being spent and the types of
organizations receiving the funds. DOL
is especially interested in obtaining
information on awards to faith-based
organizations. DOL is interested in
obtaining information about grants,
contracts, and cooperative agreements
using WIA youth funds in particular.
The WIB survey will bridge this gap
in DOL–ETA’s knowledge of WIB
grants, contracts, and cooperative
agreements using WIA youth funds.
Through this survey, DOL plans to
contact every state and local WIB, rather
than a representative sample of WIBs.
This is because DOL wants to obtain not
only summary information about the
grants, contracts, and cooperative
agreements (e.g., average amount,
average number awarded by each WIB,
etc.), but also specific information about
each individual award in the past year.
Because we are not sampling the WIBs,
we have not needed to provide a
sampling plan.
The survey will ask each WIB a small
number of questions. These questions
will be:
• Name of the organization receiving
the grant/contract/cooperative
agreement
• City where organization is located

Jkt 208001
• State where organization is located
• Amount of the grant/contract/
cooperative agreement
• Type of organization receiving
award (e.g., state and local government,
educational institution, faith-based
organization).
This survey will be administered to
the state and local WIBs using the
internet.

ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as
part of its continuing effort to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies with an
opportunity to comment on proposed
and/or continuing collections of
information in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA95) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(c)(A)]. This
program helps to ensure that requested
data can be provided in the desired
format, reporting burden (time and
financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements on respondents can be
properly assessed.
Currently, the Mine Safety and Health
Administration (MSHA) is soliciting
comments concerning the extension of
the information collection related to the
30 CFR: 7.83 and 7.97—Application
Requirements; 7.90 and 7.105—

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The regulation addresses three major
areas: diesel engine design and testing
requirements; safety standards for the
maintenance and use of this equipment;
and exhaust gas sampling provisions to
protect miners’ health. It first requires
that diesel engines and their critical
components meet design specifications
and tests to demonstrate that they are
explosion-proof and will not cause a fire
in a mine where methane may
accumulate. Second, the safety
requirements for diesel equipment
include many of the proven features
required in existing standards for
electric-powered equipment, such as
cabs or canopies, methane monitors,
brakes and lights. The regulation also
sets safety requirements for fuel
handling and storage and fire
suppression. Third, sampling of diesel
exhaust emissions is required to protect
miners from overexposure to carbon
monoxide and nitrogen dioxide
contained in diesel exhaust.
II. Desired Focus of Comments
Currently, the Mine Safety and Health
Administration (MSHA) is soliciting
comments concerning the proposed
extension of the information collection
requirement related to the approval,
exhaust gas monitoring and safety
requirements for the use of dieselpowered equipment in underground
coal mines. MSHA 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
