Agency: Mine Safety and Health Administration. Type of Review: Extension of currently approved collection. Title: Miner Operator Dust Cards. OMB Number: 1219–0011. Frequency: On occasion and bimonthly. Type of Response: Recordkeeping; Reporting; and Third party disclosure. Affected Public: Business or other forprofit. Number of Respondents: 950. Estimated Number of Annual Responses: 41,100. Average Response Time: Varies by task. Estimated Annual Burden Hours: 32,875. Total Annualized capital/startup costs: $0. Total Annual Costs (operating/ maintaining systems or purchasing services): $2,989,172. Description: 30 CFR 70.201(c), 71.201(c), and 90.201(c), authorizes the District Manager to require the mine operator to submit the dates(s) when sampling will begin. Only a certified person is allowed to conduct the respirable dust sampling required by these parts. Sections 70.202(b), 71.202(b), and 90.202(b), requires that the person must pass the MSHA examination on sampling of respirable coal mine dust. Sections 70.220(a), 71.220(a), and 90.220(a), requires the operator to report status changes to MSHA in writing within 3 working days after the status change has occurred. Sections 70.209, 71.209, and 90.209, requires persons who are certified by MSHA to take respirable dust samples to complete the dust data card that accompanies each sample being submitted for analysis. Sections 71.300 and 90.300 require a coal mine operator to submit to MSHA for approval a written respirable dust control plan within 15 calendar days after the termination date of a citation for violation of the applicable dust standard. Section 71.301(d) requires the respirable dust control plan to be posted on the mine bulletin board, however, 90.301(d) prohibits posting of the dust control plan for P–90 miners and, instead, requires a copy be provided to the affected P–90 miner. Prolonged exposure to excessive amounts of respirable coal mine dust can cause respiratory problems, ranging from mild impairment of respiratory function to more severe diseases such as coal workers’ pneumoconiosis (CWP) PO 00000 Frm 00079 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 36831 and silicosis. These diseases are debilitating, and in severe cases, disabling and fatal. The information provided by the mine operator on the dust data card that accompanies each dust sample submitted to MSHA for processing; the reporting of when such samples will be taken when District Manager requests; and the reporting of any changes in operation status affecting sampling, is vital to effectively administer and assess the effectiveness of the operator sampling program. MSHA has used the information received from the current collection not only to determine which mine operators have fully complied with the sampling provisions stipulated in the regulations but also which failed to adequately protect miners from excessive dust concentrations and needed to take appropriate measures to improve the quality of the mine air that miners breathe. Also, once the dust samples submitted by coal mine operators are processed by MSHA, it uses the collected information for reporting the results of respirable dust samples to the appropriate mine operators under §§ 70.210(a), 71.210(a) and 90.210(a), so that the results can be posted on the mine bulletin board for viewing by all miners as required by §§ 70.210(b) and 71.210(c). These results enable the Agency to more effectively evaluate the effectiveness of the operator’s dust control systems, to better identify which particular operators should be targeted for compliance assistance efforts, and to plan and undertake special health emphasis initiatives. Mine operators whose samples exceed the applicable standard are either notified to submit additional samples (involving DA, DWP, or P–90 miner entity types only) or are cited for violating the applicable standard. As discussed earlier, once cited by MSHA, the operator must promptly take corrective action and then submit five abatement samples to demonstrate that dust levels have been reduced within the applicable standard. Once a respirable dust control plan, submitted in accordance with either § 71.300 or 90.300, is approved by MSHA, its provisions must be employed and complied with on a continuous basis. Posting of the plan in accordance with § 71.301(d) allows the affected miners to acquaint themselves with the types and locations of dust control measures that are required to be employed and maintained. MSHA inspectors use the information provided in the plan to determine whether the operator is complying with all plan provisions, and to assess the plan’s E:\FR\FM\28JNN1.SGM 28JNN1
