employers to conduct employee
exposure monitoring; notify the
employees of their benzene exposures;
implement a written compliance
program; implement medicalsurveillance of employees; and provide
protection for employees from the
adverse health effects associated with
exposure to benzene.
jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES
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, including whether
the information is useful;
• The accuracy of OSHA’s estimate of
the burden (time and costs) for 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 collection
and transmission techniques.
III. Proposed Actions
OSHA is proposing to extend the
information collection requirements in
the Benzene Standard. The information
collection requirements specified in the
Benzene Standard protect employees
from the adverse health effects that may
result from occupational exposure to
benzene. The major information
collection requirements in the standard
include conducting employee exposure
monitoring, notifying employees of their
benzene exposures, implementing a
written compliance program,
implementing medical surveillance of
employees, providing examining
physicians with specific information,
ensuring that employees receive a copy
of their medical-surveillance results,
maintaining employees’ exposuremonitoring and medical records for
specific periods, and providing access to
these records by OSHA, the National
Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health, the employee who is the subject
of the records, the employee’s
representative, and other designated
parties.
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 contained in the Benzene
Standard (29 CFR 1910.1028).
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently-approved information
collection requirement.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES
The Department of Labor, as part of its
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 (the Act) (29 U.S.C. 615 et seq.)
authorizes information collection by
employers as necessary or appropriate
for enforcement of the Act or for
developing information regarding the
causes and prevention of occupational
injuries, illnesses, and accidents (29
U.S.C. 657). The Act also requires that
OSHA obtain such information with
minimum burden upon employers,
especially those operating small
business, and to reduce to the maximum
extent feasible unnecessary duplication
of efforts in obtaining information (29
U.S.C. 657).
Part 1915 subpart I specifies several
paperwork requirements.1 The
following describe the information
collection requirements:
Hazard Assessment and Verification
(29 CFR 1915.152(b)). Paragraph (b)
requires that the employer assess work
activities to determine whether there are
1 This Information Collection Request (ICR) does
not include burden hours and costs associated with
the information collection requirements in the
standard on Respiratory Protection (29 CFR
1915.154), which has been addressed in a separate
ICR. See OMB Control NO. 1218–0099.

Jkt 208001
hazards present, or likely to be present,
which necessitate the employee’s use of
PPE. If such hazards are present, or
likely to be present, the employer must:
(1) Select the type of PPE that will
protect the affected employee from the
hazards identified in the occupational
hazard assessment; (2) communicate
selection decisions to affected
employees; (3) select PPE that properly
fits each affected employee; and (4)
verify that the required occupational
hazard assessment has been performed.
The verification document must contain
the following information: Occupation,
the date(s) of the hazard assessment,
and the name of the person performing
the hazard assessment.
Training and Verification (29 CFR
1915.152(e)). Paragraph (e)(1) requires
that the employer provide training to
each employee who is required to use
PPE and paragraph (e)(3) requires
retraining under certain circumstances.
Paragraph (e)(4) requires that the
employer verify that each affected
employee has received the PPE training.
The verification must contain the
following information: Name of each
employee trained, the date(s) of training,
and the type of training the employee
received.
The part 1915 standards on PPE
protection for the eyes and face
(§ 1915.153), head (§ 1915.155), feet

(§ 1915.157), lifesaving equipment
(§ 1915.158), personal fall arrest systems
(§ 1915.159), and positioning device
systems (§ 1915.160) do not contain any
separate information collections
requirements.
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, including whether
the information is useful;
• The accuracy of OSHA’s estimate of

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 collection
and transmission techniques.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Comment: On March 3, 2006, we
published in the Federal Register (71
FR 10997) a 60-day notice of our intent
to request reinstatement of this
information collection authority from
OMB. In that notice, we solicited public
comments for 60 days ending May 2,
2006. One comment came from B.
Sachau of Florham Park, NJ, via e-mail
on March 9, 2006, in response to an
email request received March 3, 2006,
for a hard-copy publication for this
program, ‘‘Report on Evaluation of the
National Science Foundation’s Informal
Science Education Program.’’ Ms.
Sachau commented on the ‘‘heavy
spending’’ for this program but had no
specific suggestions for altering the data
collection plans.
Response: NSF believes that because
the comment does not contain
suggestions for altering the collection of
information for which NSF is seeking
OMB approval, NSF is proceeding with
the clearance request.
Title of Collection: Informal Science
Education (ISE) Management
Information System.
OMB Control No.: 3145–0158.
1. Abstract
This document has been prepared to
support the clearance of a Management
Information System for the Informal
Science Education (ISE) program. The
goals for the program are to encourage
and support projects that (1) engage the
interest of children and adults in
science, technology, engineering, and
mathematics (STEM) in daily life so that
they develop capabilities; scientific and
PO 00000
Frm 00079
Fmt 4703

technological literacy, mathematical
competence, problem-solving skills, and
the desire to learn; (2) bring together
individuals and organizations from the
informal and formal education
communities, as well as from the private
and public sectors, to strengthen STEM
education in all settings; and (3)
develop and implement innovative
strategies that 170 support the
development of a socially responsible
and informed public, and demonstrate
promise of increasing participation of
all citizens in STEM.
The ISE Management Information
System will be comprised of three webbased surveys, an initial survey that
obtains background information about
the ISE project, an annual survey, and
a final survey. The survey that obtains
background information would be
completed soon 4 after project grants are
awarded (i.e, within 45 days), the
annual would be completed at the end
of each program year, and the final
would be completed soon after the ISE
grant period has ended (i.e., within 45
days). Through the use of these three
surveys, the system will collect data
from each ISE-funded project about the
project, its grant recipient and partner
organizations, participants, activities,
deliverables, and impacts. Information
from the system will be used by ISE
program officers to evaluate the
collective impact of the ISE portfolio of
funded projects, to monitor projectrelated activities and projects’ progress
over time, and to obtain information
that can 171 inform the design of future
ISE projects.
2. Expected Respondents
The expected respondents are
principal investigators of any ISE
projects that have been funded since
2004.
3. Burden on the Public
During the first year of data
collection, the current year’s awardees
will be asked to report background data.
In addition, in only the first year,
awardees from the prior two years will
be asked to report baseline data and to
submit one annual report. The average
annual reporting burden for the baseline
and final reports is approximately 40
hours, and the reporting burden for the
annual report is approximately 24
hours. The total elements will be 4,560
burden hours for an average number of
150 respondents per year. The burden
on the public is negligible because the
collection is limited to project
participants that have received funding
from the ISE program.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of its 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 (the Act) (29 U.S.C. 615 et
seq.) authorizes information collection by employers as necessary or
appropriate for enforcement of the Act or for developing information
regarding the causes and prevention of occupational injuries,
illnesses, and accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). The Act also requires that
OSHA obtain such information with minimum burden upon employers,
especially those operating small business, and to reduce to the maximum
extent feasible unnecessary duplication of efforts in obtaining
information (29 U.S.C. 657).
Part 1915 subpart I specifies several paperwork requirements.\1\
The following describe the information collection requirements:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ This Information Collection Request (ICR) does not include
burden hours and costs associated with the information collection
requirements in the standard on Respiratory Protection (29 CFR
1915.154), which has been addressed in a separate ICR. See OMB
Control NO. 1218-0099.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hazard Assessment and Verification (29 CFR 1915.152(b)). Paragraph
(b) requires that the employer assess work activities to determine
whether there are hazards present, or likely to be present, which
necessitate the employee's use of PPE. If such hazards are present, or
likely to be present, the employer must: (1) Select the type of PPE
that will protect the affected employee from the hazards identified in
the occupational hazard assessment; (2) communicate selection decisions
to affected employees; (3) select PPE that properly fits each affected
employee; and (4) verify that the required occupational hazard
assessment has been performed. The verification document must contain
the following information: Occupation, the date(s) of the hazard
assessment, and the name of the person performing the hazard
assessment.
Training and Verification (29 CFR 1915.152(e)). Paragraph (e)(1)
requires that the employer provide training to each employee who is
required to use PPE and paragraph (e)(3) requires retraining under
certain circumstances. Paragraph (e)(4) requires that the employer
verify that each affected employee has received the PPE training. The
verification must contain the following information: Name of each
employee trained, the date(s) of training, and the type of training the
employee received.
The part 1915 standards on PPE protection for the eyes and face
(Sec. 1915.153), head (Sec. 1915.155), feet (Sec. 1915.156), hands
and body (Sec. 1915.157), lifesaving equipment (Sec. 1915.158),
personal fall arrest systems (Sec. 1915.159), and positioning device
systems (Sec. 1915.160) do not contain any separate information
collections requirements.
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,
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
collection and transmission techniques.
III. Proposed Actions
OSHA is requesting OMB to extend their approval of the collection
of information requirements contained in the standards on Personal
Protective Equipment for Shipyard Employment (29 CFR part 1915, subpart
I). The Agency is requesting an increase in burden hours for the
existing collection of information requirements from 1,761 to 2,041 (a
total increase of 280 hours). The Agency will summarize the comments
submitted in response to this notice, and will include this summary in
its request to OMB.
