such catch or device is available for the
conditions present. The petitioner
asserts that the proposed alternative
method would provide at least the same
measure of protection as the existing
standard.
Docket Number: M–2007–035–C.
Petitioner: Black Beauty Coal
Company, Vermilion Grove Road, 4500
N. 1500 E. Road, Ridgefarm, Illinois
61870.
Mine: Riola Mine Complex—
Vermilion Grover Plant, MSHA I.D. No.
11–03060, located in Vermilion County,
Illinois.
Regulation Affected: 30 CFR
75.1909(b)(6) (Non-permissible dieselpowered equipment; design and
performance requirements).
Modification Request: The petitioner
requests a modification of the existing
standard to permit the use of the
Getman Roadbuilder, Model RDG–
1504S, serial number 6940, without
front brakes as it was originally
designed. The existing standard requires
that service brakes on self-propelled
non-permissible diesel-powered
equipment act on each wheel and are
designed such that a failure on one
component will not result in a complete
loss of braking capability. The petitioner
states that: (1) The Roadbuilder has six
wheels with dual brake systems on the
four rear wheels, and is designed to
prevent loss of braking due to a single
component failure; (2) seventy-four
percent of the machines total weight is
over the four rear wheels; (3) brakes on
the rear of the Roadbuilder are sufficient
to safely stop the machine; (4) training
will be provided for grader operators to
lower the moldboard for additional
stopping capability in emergency
situations; (5) operators will be trained
to recognize the appropriate speeds to
use on different roadway conditions;
and (6) operators will be trained to limit
the maximum speed to ten miles per
hour. The petitioner asserts that the
proposed alternative method would
provide at least the same measure of
protection as the existing standard.
Docket Number: M–2007–036–C.
Petitioner: KMMC, LLC, (dba) Vision
Mining, P.O. Box 99, Sebree, Kentucky
42455.
Mine: Vision No. 9 Mine, (MSHA I.D.
No. 15–17044), located in Webster
County, Kentucky.

blow off dust covers. The petitioner
VerDate Aug<31>2005
22:57 Jun 29, 2007
Jkt 211001
proposes to have a person who is
trained in the testing procedure specific
to the deluge-type water spray fire
suppression systems conduct
examinations and tests on a weekly
basis as follows: (1) Conduct a visual
examination of each deluge-type water
spray fire suppression system; (2)
conduct a functional test of each delugetype water spray fire suppression
system and observe its performance; and
(3) record the results of the examination
and test in a book maintained on the
surface which would be retained and
made available to the authorized
representative of the Secretary. The
petitioner states that if any malfunction
or clogged nozzle is detected as a result
of the weekly examination or functional
test, corrections will be made
immediately. The petitioner asserts that
the proposed alternative method will at
all times guarantee no less than the
same measure of protection to all miners
as would be provided by the mandatory
safety standard.

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
E:\FR\FM\02JYN1.SGM
02JYN1
Federal Register / Vol. 72, No. 126 / Monday, July 2, 2007 / Notices
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 OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 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 OSH Act
also requires that OSHA obtain such
information with minimum burden
upon employers, especially those
operating small businesses, and to
reduce to the maximum extent feasible
unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The following section describes who
uses the information collection
requirements contained in the Material
Hoists, Personnel Hoists, and Elevators
Standard.
jlentini on PROD1PC65 with NOTICES
Posting Requirements
Paragraph (a)(2) requires that the rated
load capacities, recommended operating
speeds, and special hazard warnings or
instructions be posted on cars and
platforms.
Paragraph (b)(1)(i) requires that
operating rules for material hoists be
established and posted at the operator’s
station of the hoist. These rules shall
include signal system and allowable
line speed for various loads.
Paragraph (c)(10) requires that cars be
provided with a capacity and data plate
secured in a conspicuous place on the
car or crosshead.
These posting requirements are used
by the operator and crew of the material
and personnel hoists to determine how
to use the specific machine and how
much it will be able to lift as assembled
in one or a number of particular
configurations. If not properly used, the
machine would be subject to failures,
endangering the employees in the
immediate vicinity.
Test and Inspection and Certification
Records
Paragraph (c)(15) requires that a test
and inspection of all functions and
safety devices be made following
assembly and erection of hoists. The test
and inspection are to be conducted
under the supervision of a competent
person. A similar inspection and test is
required following major alteration of an
VerDate Aug<31>2005
22:57 Jun 29, 2007
Jkt 211001
existing installation. All hoists shall be
inspected and tested at three-month
intervals. A certification record (the
most recent) of the test and inspection
is required to be kept on file, including
the date the test and inspection was
completed, the identification of the
equipment and the signature of the
person who performed the test and
inspection. This certification ensures
that the equipment has been tested and
is in safe operating condition.
Disclosure of Test and Inspection
Certification Records
The most recent certification record
will be disclosed to a CSHO during an
OSHA inspection. Disclosing the
certification record to the CSHO
demonstrates the employer’s
compliance with this provision.
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 that OMB extend
its approval of the information
collection requirements contained in the
Material Hoists, Personnel Hoists, and
Elevators Standard (29 CFR 1926.552).
The Agency will summarize the
comments submitted in response to this
notice and will include this summary in
the request to OMB.

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
[[Page 36067]]
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 OSH Act)
(29 U.S.C. 651 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
OSH Act also requires that OSHA obtain such information with minimum
burden upon employers, especially those operating small businesses, and
to reduce to the maximum extent feasible unnecessary duplication of
efforts in obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The following section describes who uses the information collection
requirements contained in the Material Hoists, Personnel Hoists, and
Elevators Standard.
Posting Requirements
Paragraph (a)(2) requires that the rated load capacities,
recommended operating speeds, and special hazard warnings or
instructions be posted on cars and platforms.
Paragraph (b)(1)(i) requires that operating rules for material
hoists be established and posted at the operator's station of the
hoist. These rules shall include signal system and allowable line speed
for various loads.
Paragraph (c)(10) requires that cars be provided with a capacity
and data plate secured in a conspicuous place on the car or crosshead.
These posting requirements are used by the operator and crew of the
material and personnel hoists to determine how to use the specific
machine and how much it will be able to lift as assembled in one or a
number of particular configurations. If not properly used, the machine
would be subject to failures, endangering the employees in the
immediate vicinity.
Test and Inspection and Certification Records
Paragraph (c)(15) requires that a test and inspection of all
functions and safety devices be made following assembly and erection of
hoists. The test and inspection are to be conducted under the
supervision of a competent person. A similar inspection and test is
required following major alteration of an existing installation. All
hoists shall be inspected and tested at three-month intervals. A
certification record (the most recent) of the test and inspection is
required to be kept on file, including the date the test and inspection
was completed, the identification of the equipment and the signature of
the person who performed the test and inspection. This certification
ensures that the equipment has been tested and is in safe operating
condition.
Disclosure of Test and Inspection Certification Records
The most recent certification record will be disclosed to a CSHO
during an OSHA inspection. Disclosing the certification record to the
CSHO demonstrates the employer's compliance with this provision.
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 that OMB extend its approval of the information
collection requirements contained in the Material Hoists, Personnel
Hoists, and Elevators Standard (29 CFR 1926.552). The Agency will
summarize the comments submitted in response to this notice and will
include this summary in the request to OMB.
