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
and continuing information collection
requirements in accordance with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA–95) (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 Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et seq.)
authorizes information collection by
employers as necessary or appropriate
VerDate Nov<24>2008
15:20 Oct 28, 2009
Jkt 220001
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 collections of information
contained in the Walking and Working
Surfaces Standard are necessary to
protect workers from the collapse of
overloaded floors, outrigger scaffolds,
and failure of defective portable metal
ladders. The following describes the
information collection requirements in
subpart D:
Paragraph 1910.22(d)(1) requires that
in every building or other structure, or
part thereof, used for mercantile,
business, industrial, or storage
purposes, the loads approved by the
building official shall be marked on
plates of approved design which shall
be supplied and securely affixed by the
owner of the building, or his duly
authorized agent, in a conspicuous
place in each space to which they relate.
Such plates shall not be removed or
defaced but, if lost, removed, or defaced,
shall be replaced by the owner or his
agent.
Under paragraph 1910.26(c)(2)(vii),
portable metal ladders having defects
are to be marked and taken out of
service until repaired by either the
maintenance department or the
manufacturer.
Paragraph 1910.28(e)(3) specifies that
unless outrigger scaffolds are designed
by a licensed professional engineer, they
shall be constructed and erected in
accordance with table D–16 of this
section. A copy of the detailed drawings
and specifications showing the sizes
and spacing of members shall be kept on
the job.
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
Walking and Working Surfaces Standard
for General Industry (29 CFR Part 1910,
subpart D). OSHA is proposing to
increase the burden hours in the
currently approved information
collection request from 1,193 to 6,125 (a
total increase of 4,932 hours). This
increase is due to updated data showing
an increase in the number of firms from
10,000 to 41,540. 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: Walking and Working Surfaces
for General Industry (29 CFR 1910,
Subpart D).
OMB Number: 1218–0199.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits; Federal Government; State,
Local, or Tribal Government.
Number of Respondents: 75,408.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Average Time per Response: Three
minutes (.05 hour) to mark ladders with
a tag or other means; 20 minutes (0.33
hours) to acquire a replacement sign and
to post it.
Estimated Total Burden Hours: 6,125
hours.
Estimated Cost (Operation and
Maintenance): $0.

ensures that information is in the

Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 (the OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et

by employers as necessary or
appropriate for enforcement of the OSH
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 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 4,4′Methylenedianiline Standard in General
Industry (the ‘‘MDA Standard’’) (29 CFR
1910.1050) protect workers from the
adverse health effects that may result
from their exposure to MDA, including
cancer, liver and skin disease. The
major paperwork requirements specify
that employers must perform initial,
periodic, and additional exposure
monitoring; notify each worker in
writing of their results as soon as
possible but no later than 5 days after
receiving exposure monitoring results;
and routinely inspect the hands, face,
and forearms of each worker potentially
exposed to MDA for signs of dermal
exposure to MDA. Employers must also:
Establish a written compliance program;
institute a respiratory protection
program in accordance with 29 CFR
1910.134 (OSHA’s Respiratory
Protection Standard); and develop a
written emergency plan for any
construction operation that could have
an emergency (i.e., an unexpected and
potentially hazardous release of MDA).
Employers must label any material or
products containing MDA, including
containers used to store MDAcontaminated protective clothing and
