SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
information collection requirements
contained in the Standard on Material
Hoists, Personnel Hoists, and Elevators,
29 CFR 1926.552, are designed to
protect workers who operate and work
around personnel hoists. Specifically,
the Standard requires that the rated load
capacities, recommended operating
speeds, and special hazard warnings or
instructions be posted on cars and
platforms; that operating rules for
material hoists be established and
posted at the operator’s station of the
hoist; a signal system and allowable line
speed for various loads; and that cars be
provided with a capacity and data plate
secured in a conspicuous place on the
car or crosshead. These posting
requirements are used by the operator
and crew of the material and personnel
hoists to determine how to use the
specific machine and how much it will
be able to lift as assembled in one or a
number of particular configurations. If
not properly used, the machine would
be subject to failures, endangering the
employees in the immediate vicinity.
The Standard also specifies certification
and recordkeeping requirements related
to required testing and inspection of
hoists. This certification ensures that
the equipment has been tested and is in
safe operating condition.
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
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 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 1218–0231. The current
OMB approval is scheduled to expire on
May 31, 2011; however, it should be
noted that information collections
submitted to the OMB receive a monthto-month extension while they undergo
review. For additional information, see
the related notice published in the
Federal Register on December 3, 2010
(75 FR 75500).

the address shown in the ADDRESSES

this notice in the Federal Register. In
order to help ensure appropriate
consideration, comments should
reference OMB Control Number 1218–

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;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.

Notice of Determinations Regarding Eligibility To Apply for

In accordance with Section 223 of the Trade Act of 1974, as amended

determinations regarding eligibility to apply for trade adjustment
assistance for workers by (TA-W) number issued
[[Page 28814]]
during the period of April 25, 2011 through April 29, 2011.
In order for an affirmative determination to be made for workers of
a primary firm and a certification issued regarding eligibility to
apply for worker adjustment assistance, each of the group eligibility
requirements of Section 222(a) of the Act must be met.
I. Under Section 222(a)(2)(A), the following must be satisfied:

component parts produced by such firm have increased;
(D) imports of articles like or directly competitive with articles
