SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DOL seeks OMB approval to conduct an information collection as part of a pilot study to determine how to measure workers’ voice in mining workplaces under the jurisdiction of the MSHA. The DOL working definition for voice in the workplace is workers’ ability to access information on their rights in the workplace, their understanding of those rights, and their ability to exercise these rights without fear of discrimination or retaliation. Voice in the workplace is a key outcome goal for the Secretary of Labor and part of her vision of good jobs for everyone. A separate concurrent effort will measure workers’ voice in SUMMARY: DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE Drug Enforcement Administration Manufacturer of Controlled Substances; Notice of Application; Apertus Pharmaceuticals, LLC Pursuant to § 1301.33(a), Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), this is notice that on March 27, 2012, Apertus Pharmaceuticals, LLC, 331 Consort Drive, St Louis, Missouri 63011, made application to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) to be registered as a bulk manufacturer of the following basic classes of controlled substances: Drug Schedule Alfentanil (9737) ...........................

Measuring voice among miners, however, poses unique data collection challenges, including implementing a survey in a setting that feels non-threatening to mine workers, and asking questions in a format that reflects mining community cultures and practices. The DOL seeks to perform a pilot study to investigate the efficacy of different data collection methods and to develop a survey instrument that is appropriate for the mining community. The primary research question is what measures of voice and perceived noncompliance, combined with what modes of data collection, could be best used to track MSHA’s worker-protection outreach activity? This ICR covers a set two or three small-scale pilot data collections. Data collection for this effort will employ two or three strategies: (1) Submission of paper questionnaires to be filled out by individual mine workers during offsite mining-related training sessions, (2) recruitment of miners by using radio and paper advertisements, and (3) a mail or phone survey. The DOL is currently assessing the feasibility of each method prior to implementation. For example, implementation of a phone or mail survey will depend on the availability of a valid list of miners. A maximum of 125 respondents will be surveyed under each collection mode for 375 maximum respondents for the overall effort. 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. For additional information, see the related notice published in the Federal Register on January 19, 2012 (77 FR 2760). 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 ICR Reference Number 201205–1219–001. The OMB is E:\FR\FM\12JNN1.SGM 12JNN1
