Description: Title 30 Code of Federal
Regulations (CFR). §§ 71.400 through
71.402 and 75.1712–1 through 75.1712–
3 require coal mine operators to provide
bathing facilities, clothing change
rooms, and sanitary flush toilet facilities
in a location that is convenient for use
of the miners. If the operator is unable
to meet any or all of the requirements,
he/she may apply for a waiver. Title 30
CFR 71.403, 71.404, 75.1712–4 and
75.1712–5 provide procedures by which
an operator may apply for and be
granted a waiver. Applications are filed
with the District Manager for the district
in which the mine is located and must
contain the name and address of the
mine operator, name and location of the
mine, and a detailed statement of the
grounds upon which the waiver is
requested.
The information is used to determine
if the conditions at a mine make it
impractical for the mine operator to
provide the required sanitary facilities.
The mine operator submits the request
for a waiver to the MSHA district in
which the mine is located. The district
uses this information in determining if
the conditions at a mine justify granting
the waiver. If the waiver is granted, the
information serves as written
documentation that the mine operator is
not required to comply with the
applicable part(s) of the standard(s)
covered by the waiver.

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)(2)(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. The Bureau of Labor
Statistics (BLS) is soliciting comments
concerning the proposed extension of
the ‘‘Census of Fatal Occupational

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS)
was delegated responsibility by the
Secretary of Labor for implementing
Section 24(a) of the Occupational Safety
and Health Act of 1970. This section
states that ‘‘the Secretary shall compile
accurate statistics on work injuries and
illnesses which shall include all
disabling, serious, or significant injuries
and illnesses * * *’’.
Prior to the implementation of the
Census of Fatal Occupational Injuries
(CFOI), the BLS generated estimates of
occupational fatalities for private sector
employers from a sample survey of
about 280,000 establishments. Studies
showed that occupational fatalities were
underreported in those estimates as well
as in those compiled by regulatory, vital
statistics, and workers’ compensation
systems. Estimates prior to CFOI varied
widely, ranging from 3,000 to 10,000
fatal work injuries annually. In addition,
information needed to develop
prevention strategies were often missing
from these earlier programs.
In the late 1980s, the National
Academy of Sciences study, Counting
Injuries and Illnesses in the Workplace,
and another report, Keystone National
Policy Dialogue on Work-Related Illness
and Injury Recordkeeping, emphasized
the need for the BLS to compile a
complete roster of work-related fatalities
because of concern over the accuracy of
using a sample survey to estimate the
incidence of occupational fatalities.
These studies also recommended the
use of all available data sources to
compile detailed information for fatality
prevention efforts.
The BLS tested the feasibility of
collecting fatality data in this manner in
1989 and 1990. The resulting CFOI was
