SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
DEPARTMENT OF LABOR
Mine Safety and Health Administration
Proposed Information Collection
Request Submitted for Public
Comment and Recommendations;
Mine Operator Dust Cards
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)(c)(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.
Currently, the Mine Safety and Health
Administration (MSHA) is soliciting
comments concerning the extension of
the information collection related to the
30 CFR Sections 70.209, 71.209, and
90.209—Mine Operator Dust Data Card;
70.201(c), 71.201(c), 90.201(c)—
Reporting Operator Sampling Dates;
70.202(b), 71.202(b), and 90.202(b)—
Dust Sampling Certification; 70.220(a),
71.220(a), and 90.220(a)—Reporting
Status Changes; and 71.300, 71.301(d),
90.300, and 90.301(d)—Respirable Dust
Control Plan.
DATES: Submit comments on or before
June 29, 2009.

30 CFR 70.201(c), 71.201(c), and
90.201(c), authorize 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.
§§ 70.202(b), 71.202(b), and 90.202(b),
require that the person must pass the
MSHA examination on sampling of
respirable coal mine dust.
§§ 70.220(a), 71.220(a), and 90.220(a),
require the operator to report status
changes to MSHA in writing within 3
working days after the status change has
occurred.
§§ 70.209, 71.209, and 90.209, require
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.
§§ 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.
§ 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.
II. Desired Focus of Comments
MSHA is particularly interested in
comments that:
• Evaluate whether the proposed
collection of information is necessary
for the proper performance of the
functions of the agency, including
whether the information will have
practical utility;

including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and

• Minimize the burden of the

selecting ‘‘FedReg. Docs’’. On the next
screen, select ‘‘Paperwork Reduction
Act Supporting Statement’’ to view
documents supporting the Federal
Register Notice.
III. Current Actions
The information provided by the mine
operator on the dust data card that
accompanies each dust sample, the
reporting of when such samples will be
collected to allow MSHA to observe the
actual collection, and the reporting of
any changes in operation status affecting
sampling, are vital to effectively
administer the operator sampling
program. This allows MSHA to
determine not only whether mine
operators have complied with the
sampling requirements stipulated in the
regulations but also which operators
were in noncompliance with the
applicable dust standard. After
processing, results are reported back to
mine operators for posting on the mine
bulletin board and viewing by miners.
MSHA also uses this information to
plan enforcement activities and evaluate
programs.
