SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
design of cave-in protection systems is
needed by employers in the
construction industry and OSHA
compliance officers to ensure cave-in
protection systems are designed,
installed, and used in a manner to
protect workers adequately. Regulations
29 CFR 1926.652 paragraphs (b) and (c)
contain paperwork requirements that
impose burden hours or costs on
employers. These paragraphs require
employers to use protective systems to
prevent cave-ins during excavation
work; these systems include sloping the
side of the trench, benching the soil
away from the excavation, or using a
support system or shield (such as a
trench box). The Standard specifies
allowable configurations and slopes for
excavations, and provides appendices to
assist employers in designing protective
systems. The regulations also provide
options to how the required records are
developed.
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 1218–0137. The current
OMB approval is scheduled to expire on
July 31, 2011; however, it should be
noted that existing information
collection requirements submitted to the
OMB receive a month-to-month
extension while they undergo review.
For additional information, see the
related notice published in the Federal
Register on April 6, 2011 (76 FR 19129).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within 30 days of publication of
this notice in the Federal Register. In
order to help ensure appropriate
consideration, comments should
reference OMB Control Number 1218–
0137. The OMB 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;
• 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.
