SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background: The fourth round of

semi-structured fieldwork in the form of
site visits to up to nine Round 4
grantees to learn from college

employers.
II. Desired Focus of Comments:
Currently, the Department of Labor is
soliciting comments concerning the
above data collection for the national

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;

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,

SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014
15:27 Feb 25, 2015
This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Coke Oven Emissions information
collection. The purpose of Coke Oven
Emissions Standard and its information
collection requirements, codified at 29
CFR 1910.1029, are to provide
protection for workers from the adverse
health effects associated with
occupational exposure to coke oven
emissions. Employers must monitor
worker exposure, reduce worker
exposure to within permissible
exposure limits, and provide workers
with medical examinations and training.
Occupational Safety and Health of 1970
sections 2(b)(9), 6, and 8(c) authorize
this information collection. See 29
U.S.C. 651(b)(9), 655, 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 1218–0128.
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
February 28, 2015. 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 9, 2014 (79 FR 53450).

1218–0128. The OMB is particularly
interested in comments that:

practical utility;
• Evaluate the accuracy of the
agency’s estimate of the burden of the
