DOL_PRA_PUBLIC@dol.gov.
Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D).
The
information collection requirements in
the Walking-Working Surfaces Standard
protect workers by making them aware
of load limits of the floors of buildings,
defective portable metal ladders, and
the specifications of outrigger scaffolds
used. Specifically, regulations 29 CFR
1910.22(d)(1) requires that in every
building or other structure, or part
thereof, used for mercantile, business,
industrial, or storage purposes, the loads
approved by the building official shall
be marked on plates of approved design
which shall be supplied and securely
affixed by the owner of the building, or
his duly authorized agent, in a
conspicuous place in each space to
which they relate. Such plates shall not
be removed or defaced but, if lost,
removed, or defaced, shall be replaced
by the owner or his agent. Under
§ 1910.26(c)(2)(vii), portable metal
ladders having defects are to be marked
and taken out of service until repaired
by either the maintenance department

or the manufacturer. Section
1910.28(e)(3) specifies that, unless
outrigger scaffolds are designed by a
licensed professional engineer, they
shall be constructed and erected in
accordance with table D–16 of this
section. It is mandatory that a copy of
the detailed drawings and specifications
showing the sizes and spacing of
members be kept on the job.
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 that 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 1218–0199. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on April
30, 2013; 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 February 13, 2013.
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

Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D).
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The information collection requirements in
the Walking-Working Surfaces Standard protect workers by making them
aware of load limits of the floors of buildings, defective portable
metal ladders, and the specifications of outrigger scaffolds used.
Specifically, regulations 29 CFR 1910.22(d)(1) requires that in every
building or other structure, or part thereof, used for mercantile,
business, industrial, or storage purposes, the loads approved by the
building official shall be marked on plates of approved design which
shall be supplied and securely affixed by the owner of the building, or
his duly authorized agent, in a conspicuous place in each space to
which they relate. Such plates shall not be removed or defaced but, if
lost, removed, or defaced, shall be replaced by the owner or his agent.
Under Sec. 1910.26(c)(2)(vii), portable metal ladders having defects
are to be marked and taken out of service until repaired by either the
maintenance department or the manufacturer. Section 1910.28(e)(3)
specifies that, unless outrigger scaffolds are designed by a licensed
professional engineer, they shall be constructed and erected in
accordance with table D-16 of this section. It is mandatory that a copy
of the detailed drawings and specifications showing the sizes and
spacing of members be kept on the job.
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 that
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 1218-0199. The current approval is scheduled to
expire on April 30, 2013; 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 February 13, 2013.
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 mention OMB Control Number 1218-0199.
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 clarity of the
information to be collected; and
Minimize the burden of the collection of information on
those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection
techniques or other forms of information technology,
