The
Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 amended
Employee Income Security Act of 1974
section 101 to require plan
administrators to furnish affected
participants and beneficiaries of
individual account pension plans with
advance written notice of a ‘‘blackout
period’’ during which the right to direct
or diversify investments or obtain a loan
or distribution may be temporarily
suspended. The EBSA codified the
corresponding regulatory requirement at
29 CFR 2520.101–3.
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 1210–0122. The current
OMB approval is scheduled to expire on
June 30, 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 December 7, 2011 (76 FR
76439).
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 1210–
0122. 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,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with NOTICES
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 (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 OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et
seq.) authorizes information collection
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
VerDate Mar<15>2010
17:51 Apr 25, 2012
Jkt 226001
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 to
reduce to the maximum extent feasible
unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The Standards on Marine Terminals
and Longshoring contain a number of
collections of information which are
used by employers to ensure that
employees are informed properly about
the safety and health hazards associated
with marine terminals and longshoring
operations. OSHA uses the records
developed in response to the collection
of information requirements to find out
if the employer is complying adequately
with the provisions of the standards.
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
Standards on Marine Terminals (29 CFR
part 1917) and Longshoring (29 CFR
part 1918). The Agency is requesting an
increase in its current burden hour
estimate from 35,948 hours to 47,398
hours, a difference of 11,450 hours. This
increase in the burden hours is due to
an increase in longshoring operations
from 501 to 808 establishments. The
Agency will summarize any comments
submitted in response to this notice and
will include this summary in its request
to OMB.
Type of Review: Extension of
currently approved collections.
Title: Marine Terminals (29 CFR part
1917) and Longshoring (29 CFR part
1918).

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 accord 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
the 1970 (the OSH Act) authorizes
information collection 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
PO 00000
Frm 00068

Sfmt 4703
U.S.C. 657). The OSHA Act also
requires that OSHA obtain such
information with minimum burden
upon employers, especially those
operating small businesses, and to
reduce to the maximum extent feasible
unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The OSHA Strategic Partnership
Program (OSPP) allows OSHA to enter
into an extended, voluntary, cooperative
relationship with groups of employers,
workers, and representatives (sometimes
including other stakeholders, and
sometimes involving only one
employer) to encourage, assist and
recognize their efforts to eliminate
serious hazards and achieve a high level
of worker safety and health that goes
beyond what historically has been
achieved through traditional
enforcement methods. Each OSHA
Strategic Partnership (OSP) determines
which information will be needed,
determining the best collection method,
and clarifying how the information will
be used. At a minimum, each OSP must
identify baseline illness and injury data
corresponding to all summary line items
on the OSHA 200/300 logs, and must
track changes at either the worksite
level or participant-aggregate level. An
OSP may also include other measures of
success, such as training activity, self
inspections, and/or workers’
compensation data.
In this regard, the information
collection requirements for the OSPP
are used by the Agency to gauge the
effectiveness of its programs, identify
needed improvements, and ensure that
its resources are being used for good and
effective purposes.
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 function to protect workers,
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

• Ways to minimize the burden on
employees who must comply; for
example, by using automated or other
technological information collection
and transmission techniques.
