DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Announcement of Public Briefings on
Using the New H–2A Temporary
Agricultural Labor Certification
Program
dwashington3 on PROD1PC60 with NOTICES
AGENCIES: Employment and Training
Administration; Wage and Hour
Division, Employment Standards
Administration, Labor.
ACTION: Notice of meeting.
SUMMARY: The Office of Foreign Labor
Certification (OFLC) in the Department
of Labor’s Employment & Training
Administration (ETA) has been reengineering several of its programs,
including the H–2A foreign agricultural
worker labor certification program. The
Wage and Hour Division (WHD) of the
Employment Standards Administration
(ESA) has been amending contractual
obligations applicable to employers of
workers subject to Section 218 of the
Immigration and Nationality Act (INA).
The Department published a Notice of
Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) to
redesign the H–2A agricultural labor
certification program on February 13,
2008. The Department is currently
reviewing public comments on this
proposed rule and intends to publish
final regulations before the end of the
calendar year. In addition, the
Department of Homeland Security
(DHS) has published an NPRM to
amend its H–2A regulations and intends
to publish a final rule before the end of
the calendar year as well.
Pursuant to the Department of Labor
final rule, changes to information
collection and regulatory requirements
will affect the application forms. The H–
2A program will no longer use the Form
ETA 750 (OMB control number 1205–
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:27 Dec 04, 2008
Jkt 217001
0015). Instead the program will utilize
the new Form ETA 9142 (OMB control
number 1205–0466). The new
regulations also federalize the prevailing
wage determination process in the H–
2A program.
ETA and ESA are issuing this notice
to announce that they will offer at least
two public briefings to educate
stakeholders, program users, and other
interested members of the public on
using the re-engineered program and
new form. Representatives from DHS
will also be joining the Department of
Labor at the briefing sessions. As
currently planned, the two briefings will
take place in late 2008 in Atlanta and
Denver. This notice provides the public
with locations, dates, and registration
information regarding the briefings.
However, these briefings are subject to
change and/or cancellation without
further notice in the Federal Register. In
the event of a change participants who
have registered will be notified.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of its
continuing efforts 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 OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et
seq.) authorizes information collection
by employers as necessary or
appropriate for enforcement of the OSH
VerDate Aug<31>2005
15:27 Dec 04, 2008
Jkt 217001
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 information collection
requirements specified in the Cadmium
in Construction Standard protect
employees from the adverse health
effects that may result from their
exposure to cadmium. The major
information collection requirements in
the Standard include conducting
employee exposure monitoring,
notifying employees of their cadmium
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’ exposure
monitoring and medical surveillance
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.
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
Cadmium in Construction Standard (29
CFR 1926.1127). The Agency is
proposing to retain its previous estimate
of 39,331 burden hours; however, it is
proposing to increase the currently
approved capital costs from $1,657,460
PO 00000
Frm 00069
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
to $1,775,457, a total increase of
$117,997. The increase is due to the
Agency increasing the cost to perform
medical surveillance and exposure
monitoring.
The Agency will summarize the
comments submitted in response to this
notice and will include this summary in
the request to OMB.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Cadmium in Construction
Standard (29 CFR 1926.1127).
OMB Number: 1218–0186.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits; Federal Government; State,
Local or Tribal Government.
Number of Respondents: 10,000.
Frequency: On occasion; quarterly;
semi-annually; annually.
Average Time per Response: Varies
from two minutes (.03 hour) for a
secretary to compile and maintain
training records to 1.5 hours to
administer employee medical
examinations.
Estimated Total Burden Hours:
39,331.
Estimated Cost (Operation and
Maintenance): $1,775,457
