This ICR
seeks to maintain PRA authority for the
information collection requirements
specified in regulations 29 CFR
1926.502 and –.503 that, respectively,
require a covered employer to certify
safety nets and to develop fall
protection plans and to prepare worker
training certification records. These
standards help to ensure that a covered
employer provides the required fall
protection and training. The
Occupational Safety and Health Act
authorizes this information collection.
See 29 U.S.C. 651 and 657.
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 1218–0197.
OMB authorization for an ICR cannot
be for more than three (3) years without
renewal, and the current approval for
this collection is scheduled to expire on
December 31, 2013. The DOL seeks to
extend PRA authorization for this
information collection for three (3) more

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks to maintain PRA authority for
the information collection requirements specified in regulations 29 CFR
1926.502 and -.503 that, respectively, require a covered employer to
certify safety nets and to develop fall protection plans and to prepare
worker training certification records. These standards help to ensure
that a covered employer provides the required fall protection and
training. The Occupational Safety and Health Act authorizes this
information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 651 and 657.
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 1218-0197.
OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than three (3)
years without renewal, and the current approval for this collection is
scheduled to expire on December 31, 2013. The DOL seeks to extend PRA
authorization for this information collection for three (3) more years,
without any change to existing requirements. The DOL notes that
existing information collection requirements submitted to the OMB
receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review. For
additional substantive information about this ICR, see the related
notice published in the Federal Register on September 27, 2013 (78 FR
59725).
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 1218-0197.
The OMB is particularly interested in comments that:
