collected via forms WH–514, WH–514a,
and WH–515. The DOL currently
obtains OMB approval to conduct those
transportation related information
collections under Control Number
1235–0017. This ICR proposes to
combine collections under Control
Numbers 1235–0016 and 1235–0017,
with 1235–0016 being the survivor. The
DOL will request to discontinue Control
Number 1235–0017 upon OMB approval
of the merger. The WHD also proposes
to add and revise the forms to obtain
some additional information.
These information collections are
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 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
Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a)
and 1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB
approval for this information collection
under Control Number 1235–0016. The
current OMB approval for Control
Number 1235–0016 is scheduled to
expire on June 30, 2012; however, it
should be noted that existing
information collection requirements
submitted to the OMB receive a monthto-month extension while they undergo
review. Control Number 1235–0017
expires September 30, 2013. New
information collection requirements
will only take effect on OMB approval.
For additional information, see the
related notice published in the Federal
Register on September 29, 2012 (77 FR
12330).
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 1235–
0016. 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

use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
