SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Commercial Diving Operations Standard information collection requirements are directed toward assuring the safety and health of divers exposed to hyperbaric conditions during and after undersea activities. In addition, the required recordkeeping is intended to bring about a safe workplace and assure the safety of divers. The Standard applies to diving and related support operations conducted by employers involved in general industry, construction, ship repairing, shipbuilding, shipbreaking, and longshoring, and specifies equipment and procedures that prevent injury and death among workers exposed to hazards associated with diving and diving support operations. The Standard contains a number of paperwork requirements codified in regulations 29 CFR 1910.401(b), 1910.410(a)(3) and (a)(4), 1910.420(a), 1910.421(b), 1910.421(f), 1910.421(h), 1910.422(e), 1910.423(b)(1)(ii) through (b)(2), 1910.423(d), 1910.423(e), 1910.430(a), (b)(4), (c)(1)(iii), (c)(3)(i), (f)(3)(ii), and (g)(2), and 1910.440(a)(2) and (b). 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 1218–0069. The current OMB approval is scheduled to expire on January 31, 2012; 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 November 1, 2011 (76 FR 67480).
