classroom and hands-on training
courses, which have accounted for
nearly 36 million contact hours of actual
training. Generally, the grant will
initially be for one year, and subsequent
continuation awards are also for one
year at a time. Grantees must submit a
separate application to have the support
continued for each subsequent year.
Grantees are to provide information in
accordance with S65.4 (a), (b), (c) and
65.6(a) on the nature, duration, and
purpose of the training, selection

of joint applications, the adequacy of
training plans and resources, including
budget and curriculum, and response to
meeting training criteria in OSHA’s
Hazardous Waste Operations and
Emergency Response Regulations (29

agreement, there are additional
requirements for the progress report
section of the application. Grantees are
to provide their information in hard
copy as well as enter information into
the WETP Grantee Data Management
System. The information collected is
used by the Director through officers,
employees, experts, and consultants to
evaluate applications based on technical
merit to determine whether to make
awards. Frequency of Response:
Biannual. Affected Public: Non-profit
organizations. Public reporting burden
for this collection of information is
estimated to average 14 hours per year,
including the time for reviewing
instructions, searching existing data
sources, gathering and maintaining the
data needed, and completing and
reviewing the collection of information.
The annual reporting hour burden is as
follows: number of respondents: 20;
number of responses per respondent: 2;
and annual hour burden per response:
560. The average time per response is 14
hours per year. The estimated hour
burden for each respondent includes
nine hours to create documents and five

Institute of Environmental Health
Sciences (NIEHS), the National
Institutes of Health (NIH) has submitted
to the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB) a request for review and
approval of the information collection
listed below. This proposed information
collection was previously published in
the Federal Register on May 14, 2012,
pages 28395–28396 and allowed 60days for public comment. No public
comments were received. The purpose
of this notice is to allow an additional
30 days for public comment. The
National Institutes of Health may not
conduct or sponsor, and the respondent
is not required to respond to, an
information collection that has been
extended, revised, or implemented on or
after October 1, 1995, unless it displays
a currently valid OMB control number.
Proposed Collection: Title: Hazardous
Waste Worker Training—42 CFR part
65. Type of Information Collection
Request: Revision of OMB No. 0925–

Collection: This request for OMB review
and approval of the information
collection is required by regulation 42
CFR part 65(a)(6). The National Institute
of Environmental Health Sciences
(NIEHS) was given major responsibility
for initiating a worker safety and health
training program under Section 126 of

hazardous waste workers and
emergency responders. A network of

program has successfully supported 20
primary grantees that have trained more
than 2.7 million workers across the
country and presented over 160,913
