Background The Commission instituted this investigation effective March 27, 2013, following receipt of a petition filed with the Commission and Commerce by Thomas Steel Strip Corporation, Warren, Ohio. The final phase of the investigation was scheduled by the Commission following notification of a preliminary determination by Commerce that imports of diffusionannealed, nickel-plated flat-rolled steel products from Japan were being sold at LTFV within the meaning of section 733(b) of the Act (19 U.S.C. 1673b(b)). Notice of the scheduling of the final phase of the Commission’s investigation and of a public hearing to be held in connection therewith was given by posting copies of the notice in the Office of the Secretary, U.S. International Trade Commission, Washington, DC, and by publishing the notice in the Federal Register of December 11, 2013 (78 FR 75371). The hearing was held in Washington, DC, on April 1, 2014, and all persons who requested the opportunity were permitted to appear in person or by counsel. The Commission completed and filed its determination in this investigation on May 21, 2014. The views of the Commission are contained in USITC Publication 4466 (May 2014), entitled Diffusion-Annealed, Nickel-Plated FlatRolled Steel Products from Japan: Investigation No. 731–TA–1206 (Final).

SUMMARY: Jkt 232001 PO 00000 Frm 00116 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 and illnesses. The OSHA uses the information to carry out enforcement and intervention activities to secure for workers a safe and healthful work environment. The data also provide the Bureau of Labor Statistics information to report on the number and rate of occupational injuries and illnesses in the country. In addition, the data inform employers and workers on the kinds of injuries and illnesses occurring in the workplace and their related hazards. Increased employer awareness should result in the identification and voluntary correction of hazardous workplace conditions. Likewise, workers who receive information on injuries and illnesses will be more likely to follow safe work practices and report workplace hazards. This would generally raise the overall level of safety and health in the workplace. The OSHAct authorizes this information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 657, 673. The OSHA is currently engaged in two rulemakings that would modify 29 CFR part 1904 requirements: (1) Improve Tracking of Workplace Injuries and Illnesses (78 FR 67254) and (2) NAICS Update and reporting Revisions (76 FR 36414). A Notice of Proposed Rulemaking has been published for each, and the public comment period for each rulemaking has ended. The OSHA is currently developing a final rule for each project. As previously noted, this ICR is a request to extend PRA authorization for the injury and illness recordkeeping requirements currently in effect. This ICR does not incorporate any changes from the proposed rules. Any further changes resulting from rulemaking would be approved under the PRA by a different ICR submitted to the OMB under procedures applicable to an ICR associated with ongoing rulemaking activity. See 5 CFR 1320.11 and 1320.12 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 1218–0176.

In order to help ensure appropriate consideration, comments should mention OMB Control Number 1218–0176. 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, e.g., permitting electronic submission of responses.

Applicants use Form OSHA– 70 in order to seek OSHA accreditation to be able to test or examine certain equipment and material handling devices, as required under the OSHA maritime regulations, 29 CFR part 1917 (Marine Terminals) and 29 CFR part 1918 (Longshoring). The OSHA uses this information to accredit companies to inspect and provide certification for cranes, derricks, and accessory gear used in the longshoring, marine terminal, and shipyard industries. Certain types of vessel cargo gear and shore-based material handling devices used in maritime operations are required to have accredited companies conduct examinations. The accredited company either issues a certificate to the owner that the piece of equipment has passed the examination or issues a certificate to the owner of any deficiency found during the examination. The owner is responsible for maintaining a copy of the certification record. The Occupational Safety and Health Act and Longshore and Harbor Workers Compensation Act authorize this information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 651, 653, 655, 657; 33 U.S.C. 18.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks to extend PRA authority for 
the Recordkeeping and Reporting Occupational Injuries and Illnesses 
information collection. The Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSHAct) 
and regulations 29 CFR part 1904 prescribe that certain employers 
maintain records of job related injuries and illnesses. The OSHA uses 
the information to carry out enforcement and intervention activities to 
secure for workers a safe and healthful work environment. The data also 
provide the Bureau of Labor Statistics information to report on the 
number and rate of occupational injuries and illnesses in the country. 
In addition, the data inform employers and workers on the kinds of 
injuries and illnesses occurring in the workplace and their related 
hazards. Increased employer awareness should result in the 
identification and voluntary correction of hazardous workplace 
conditions. Likewise, workers who receive information on injuries and 
illnesses will be more likely to follow safe work practices and report 
workplace hazards. This would generally raise the overall level of 
safety and health in the workplace. The OSHAct authorizes this 
information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 657, 673.
    The OSHA is currently engaged in two rulemakings that would modify 
29 CFR part 1904 requirements: (1) Improve Tracking of Workplace 
Injuries and Illnesses (78 FR 67254) and (2) NAICS Update and reporting 
Revisions (76 FR 36414). A Notice of Proposed Rulemaking has been 
published for each, and the public comment period for each rulemaking 
has ended. The OSHA is currently developing a final rule for each 
project. As previously noted, this ICR is a request to extend PRA 
authorization for the injury and illness recordkeeping requirements 
currently in effect. This ICR does not incorporate any changes from the 
proposed rules. Any further changes resulting from rulemaking would be 
approved under the PRA by a different ICR submitted to the OMB under 
procedures applicable to an ICR associated with ongoing rulemaking 
activity. See 5 CFR 1320.11 and 1320.12
    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 1218-0176.
    OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than three (3) 
years without renewal, and the current approval for

[[Page 30655]]

this collection is scheduled to expire on May 31, 2014. 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 February 20, 2014 (79 FR 
9768).
    Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, 
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in 
the ADDRESSES section by June 30, 2014. In order to help ensure 
appropriate consideration, comments should mention OMB Control Number 
1218-0176. 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, e.g., permitting 
electronic submission of responses.
