DEA also recognizes concerns raised by State and local governments, the healthcare industry, the law enforcement community, public and private environmental organizations, and individual citizens. In response to these concerns, DEA is holding a public meeting to gather information from interested persons regarding potential solutions within the framework of the Controlled Substances Act. As discussed above, DEA is seeking input in the form of oral presentations and written comments. Regardless of the format, specific concerns which persons are encouraged to address are as follows: • The process of the disposal of unwanted controlled substances could create new and unwanted avenues for diversion. What is the safest manner, in your opinion, to dispose of unwanted controlled substances while preventing diversion? • Please explain why you believe the solution you propose would protect the public health and safety and would curtail diversion. • Do you foresee any specific obstacles to the disposal of controlled substances in your community or geographical area?

Regulations 30 CFR 56.13015 and 57.13015 require compressed-air receivers and other unfired pressure vessels to be inspected by inspectors holding a valid National Board Commission and in accordance with the applicable chapters of the National Board Inspection Code, a Manual for Boiler and Pressure Vessels Inspectors, 1979. Safety defects found on compressed-air receivers and other unfired pressure vessels have caused injuries and fatalities in the mining industry. Records of inspections must be kept in accordance with the requirements of the National Board Inspection Code and the records must be made available to the Secretary or an authorized representative. Regulations 30 CFR 56.13030 and 57.13030 require that fired pressure vessels (boilers) must be equipped with water level gauges, pressure gauges, automatic pressure-relief valves, blowdown piping and other safety devices approved by the American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) to protect against hazards from SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: E:\FR\FM\22DEN1.SGM 22DEN1 srobinson on DSKHWCL6B1PROD with NOTICES Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 245 / Wednesday, December 22, 2010 / Notices overpressure, flameouts, fuel interruptions and low water level. These sections also require that records of inspection and repairs be retained by the mine operator in accordance with the requirements of the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, 1977, and the National Board Inspection Code (progressive records—no limit on retention time) and shall be made available to the Secretary or an authorized representative. Regulations 30 CFR 56.14100 and 57.14100 require operators to inspect equipment, machinery, and tools that are to be used during a shift for safety defects before the equipment is placed in operation. Defects affecting safety are required to be corrected in a timely manner. In instances where the defect makes continued operation of the equipment hazardous to persons, the equipment must be removed from service, tagged to identify that it is out of use, and repaired before use is resumed. Safety defects on selfpropelled mobile equipment account for many injuries and fatalities in the mining industry. Inspection of this equipment prior to use is required to assure safe operation. The equipment operator is required to make a visual and operational check of the various primary operating systems that affect safety, such as brakes, lights, horn, seatbelts, tires, steering, back-up alarm, windshield, cab safety glass, rear and side view mirrors, and other safety and health related items. Any defects found are required to be either corrected immediately or reported to and recorded by the mine operator prior to the timely correction. A record is not required if unsafe conditions are not present upon examination prior to use if the defect is corrected immediately. The precise format in which the record is kept is left to the discretion of the mine operator. Reports of uncorrected defects are required to be recorded by the mine operator and kept at the mine office from the date the defects are recorded, until the defects are corrected. A competent person designated by the operator must examine each working place at least once each shift for conditions that may adversely affect safety or health. A record of such examinations must be kept by the operator for a period of one year and must be made available for review by the Secretary or an authorized representative. This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and the public is generally not required to respond to an information collection, unless it is VerDate Mar<15>2010 20:24 Dec 21, 2010 Jkt 223001 currently approved by the OMB under the PRA and displays a currently valid OMB Control Number.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of 1977 
(Mine Act) section 103(h), 30 U.S.C. 813(h), authorizes the MSHA to 
collect information necessary to carry out its duty in protecting the 
safety and health of miners.
    Regulations 30 CFR 56.13015 and 57.13015 require compressed-air 
receivers and other unfired pressure vessels to be inspected by 
inspectors holding a valid National Board Commission and in accordance 
with the applicable chapters of the National Board Inspection Code, a

found on compressed-air receivers and other unfired pressure vessels 
have caused injuries and fatalities in the mining industry. Records of 
inspections must be kept in accordance with the requirements of the 
National Board Inspection Code and the records must be made available 
to the Secretary or an authorized representative.

pressure vessels (boilers) must be equipped with water level gauges, 
pressure gauges, automatic pressure-relief valves, blowdown piping and 
other safety devices approved by the American Society of Mechanical 
Engineers (ASME) to protect against hazards from

overpressure, flameouts, fuel interruptions and low water level. These 
sections also require that records of inspection and repairs be 
retained by the mine operator in accordance with the requirements of 
the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code, 1977, and the National Board 
Inspection Code (progressive records--no limit on retention time) and 
shall be made available to the Secretary or an authorized 
representative.
    Regulations 30 CFR 56.14100 and 57.14100 require operators to 
inspect equipment, machinery, and tools that are to be used during a 
shift for safety defects before the equipment is placed in operation. 
Defects affecting safety are required to be corrected in a timely 
manner. In instances where the defect makes continued operation of the 
equipment hazardous to persons, the equipment must be removed from 
service, tagged to identify that it is out of use, and repaired before 
use is resumed. Safety defects on self-propelled mobile equipment 
account for many injuries and fatalities in the mining industry. 
Inspection of this equipment prior to use is required to assure safe 
operation. The equipment operator is required to make a visual and 
operational check of the various primary operating systems that affect 
safety, such as brakes, lights, horn, seatbelts, tires, steering, back-
up alarm, windshield, cab safety glass, rear and side view mirrors, and 
other safety and health related items. Any defects found are required 
to be either corrected immediately or reported to and recorded by the 
mine operator prior to the timely correction. A record is not required 
if unsafe conditions are not present upon examination prior to use if 
the defect is corrected immediately. The precise format in which the 
record is kept is left to the discretion of the mine operator. Reports 
of uncorrected defects are required to be recorded by the mine operator 
and kept at the mine office from the date the defects are recorded, 
until the defects are corrected.
    A competent person designated by the operator must examine each 
working place at least once each shift for conditions that may 
adversely affect safety or health. A record of such examinations must 
be kept by the operator for a period of one year and must be made 
available for review by the Secretary or an authorized representative.
    This information collection is subject to the PRA. A Federal agency 
generally cannot conduct or sponsor a collection of information, and 
the public is generally not required to respond to an information 
collection, unless it is currently approved by the OMB under the PRA 
and displays a currently valid OMB Control Number. In addition, 
notwithstanding any other provisions of law, no person shall generally 
be subject to penalty for failing to comply with a collection of 
information if the collection of information does not display a 
currently valid OMB control number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The 
DOL obtains OMB approval for this information collection under OMB 
Control Number 1219-0089. The current OMB approval is scheduled to 
expire on December 31, 2010; however, it should be noted that 
information collections submitted to the OMB receive a month-to-month 
extension while they undergo review. For additional information, see
