questionnaire. The burden hours for
collecting respondent data sum to 1,165
hours (2330 respondents’ × .5 hours =
1,165 hours) and an additional 10% or
117 hours will be needed for data
validation and follow-up contact with
the respondents for nonresponse,

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background: The Army
Unemployment Compensation for ExService Members (UCX) Claimants’
Initiative, funded by the U.S.
Department of Labor, Employment and
Training Administration (ETA),
provides grants to four states to improve
strategies for providing reemployment
services to Army UCX claimants and for
leveraging assets and sharing data across
partners. The major goals of the
initiative are to create a strong
collaborative partnership among the
Unemployment Insurance (UI) system,
the public workforce system, and the
three components of the Army (active,
National Guard, and Reserve) that will
support the rapid reemployment of UCX
claimants; improve the sharing of UCX
data that will lead to improved outreach
and better understanding of UCX
claimants and their service delivery
needs; and increase outreach, exposure
to jobs, and reemployment strategies for
UCX claimants that fully leverage
existing resources with new and
innovative service delivery strategies.
The period of performance for the grants
is from July 1, 2012, to June 30, 2015.

The purpose of the evaluation, funded
by the Chief Evaluation Office, is to
determine the extent to which the
initiative’s goals were achieved by each
of the four grantee states.
This package requests clearance for
semi-structured discussions that will
take place during a single round of twoday visits to each of the sites in the
winter of 2014–2015. The site visits will
involve an array of individuals that
varies by state based on the projects that
each state has decided to implement.
Conversations will take place with
grantee leaders, staff of an American Job
Center, and representatives of the UI
system in each state. Other discussants
will include a suitable combination of
representatives of the Army and UCX
claimants in the initiative. The site visit
will facilitate an assessment of the
progress of these efforts, information
gathering, and potential for the delivery
of additional in-person technical
assistance.
II. Desired Focus of Comments:
Currently, the Department of Labor is
soliciting comments concerning the
above data collection for Evaluation of
the Army UCX Claimants Initiative.
Comments are requested to:
* 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
information collection on those who are
to respond, including the use of
appropriate automated, electronic,
mechanical, or other technological
collection techniques or other forms of
information technology, e.g., permitting
electronic submissions of responses.
III. Current Actions: At this time, the
Department of Labor is requesting
clearance for site visit data collection for
the Evaluation of the Army
Unemployment Compensation for ExServicemembers (UCX) Claimants

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
Section 101(c) of the Federal Mine
Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine
Act) allows the mine operator or
representative of miners to file a
petition to modify the application of any
mandatory safety standard to a coal or
other mine if the Secretary of Labor
determines that:
1. An alternative method of achieving
the result of such standard exists which
will at all times guarantee no less than
the same measure of protection afforded
the miners of such mine by such
standard; or
2. That the application of such
standard to such mine will result in a
diminution of safety to the miners in
such mine.
In addition, the regulations at 30 CFR
44.10 and 44.11 establish the
requirements and procedures for filing
petitions for modification.
II. Petitions for Modification
Docket Number: M–2014–022–C.
Petitioner: Mountain Coal Company,
P.O. Box 591, 5174 Highway 133,
Somerset, Colorado 81434.
Mine: West Elk Mine, MSHA I.D. No.
05–03672, located in Gunnison County,
Colorado.
Regulation Affected: 30 CFR
75.1909(b)(6) (Nonpermissible dieselpowered equipment; design and
performance requirements).
Modification Request: The petitioner
requests that a previously granted
petition for modification, Docket No.
M–1999–113–C, be amended. The
petitioner proposes to add two
additional road Getman graders, model
RDG–1504 serial number 7004, and
model RDG–1504C serial number 6718.
The maximum speed on the Getman
graders will be limited to 10 miles per
hour or less by blocking out gear ratios
that would provide higher speeds.
Grader operators will be trained to
recognize appropriate levels of speed for
different road conditions and slopes.
Grader operators will be trained to
lower the moldboard (grader blade) to
provide additional stopping capability
in emergencies.
Within 60 days after the Proposed
Decision and Order becomes final, the
petitioner will submit proposed
revisions for its approved 30 CFR part
48 training plan to the District Manager.
These revisions will specify initial and
refresher training regarding the terms
and conditions in the Proposed Decision
and Order.
