Some contractors may perform none for a particular day, whereas others may conduct more than 50 per day. This estimate is an average. Also, in Alaska, the Alaska Safety Handbook or ASH is followed on the North Slope, which is a book containing both safety standards and the permit to work process for North Slope operations. The ASH includes work permits which include a hazards analysis and mitigation measures section on the back of the permit. + In the future, BSEE may require electronic filing of some submissions. Estimated Reporting and Recordkeeping Non-Hour Cost Burden: We have identified four non-hour cost burdens associated with the collection of information for a total of $5,220,000. They are as follows: § 250.1925(a)—Pay for all costs associated with a BSEE directed audit due to deficiencies. § 250.1920(a)—ASP audits conducted for High, Moderate, and Low Activity Operator. We have not identified any other nonhour cost burdens associated with this collection of information. Public Disclosure Statement: The PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) provides that an agency may not conduct or sponsor a collection of information unless it displays a currently valid OMB control number. Until OMB approves a collection of information, you are not obligated to respond. Comments: Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501, et seq.) requires each agency ‘‘. . . to provide notice . . . and otherwise consult with members of the public and affected agencies concerning each proposed collection of information . . .’’ Agencies must specifically solicit comments to: (a) Evaluate whether the collection is necessary or useful; (b) evaluate the accuracy of the burden of the proposed collection of information; (c) enhance the quality, usefulness, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) minimize the burden on the respondents, including the use of technology. To comply with the public consultation process, on July 8, 2015, we published a Federal Register notice (80 FR 39152) announcing that we would submit this ICR to OMB for approval. The notice provided the required 60-day comment period. In addition, § 250.199 provides the OMB Control Number for the information collection requirements imposed by the 30 CFR 250, subpart S regulations and form. The regulation also informs the public that they may comment at any time on the collections of information and provides the address to which they VerDate Sep<11>2014 17:55 Oct 19, 2015 Jkt 238001 should send comments.

These national standards, which went into effect on August 20, 2012, require covered facilities to retain certain specified information relating to sexual abuse prevention planning, responsive planning, education and training, investigations and to collect and retain certain specified information relating to allegations of sexual abuse within the facility. Covered facilities include: Federal, state, and local jails, prisons, lockups, community correction facilities, and juvenile facilities, whether administered by such government or by a private organization on behalf of such government.

If all covered facilities were to fully comply with all of the PREA standards, the new burden hours associated with the staff time that would be required to collect and maintain the information and records required by the standards would be approximately 1.16 million in the first year of full compliance, or about 89 hours per facility.

These national standards, which went into effect on August 20, 2012, 
require covered facilities to retain certain specified information
