ACTION: Notice. AGENCY: With this notice, the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (‘‘OSHA’’ or ‘‘the Agency’’) is making a technical amendment to an existing permanent variance, and revoking two others. The technical amendment involves updating the name of one employer granted a variance whose name has changed. The technical amendment and revocations result from an OSHA review to identify variances that are outdated, unnecessary, or otherwise defective. DATES: The effective date of the technical correction and revocation of the permanent variances is April 8, 2016. SUMMARY: FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: General information and press inquiries. Contact Frank Meilinger, Director, OSHA Office of Communications, Room N–3647, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20210; telephone: (202) 693–1999. Email: meilinger.francis2@dol.gov Technical information. Contact Kevin Robinson, Director, Office of Technical Programs and Coordination Activities, Room N–3655, OSHA, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW., Washington, DC 20210; telephone: (202) 693–2110; fax: (202) 693–1644. Email: robinson.kevin@dol.gov Copies of this Federal Register notice. Electronic copies of this notice are available at https:// www.regulations.gov . Electronic copies of this notice, as well as news releases and other relevant information, are available on OSHA’s Web site at https:// www.osha.gov. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: I. Background OSHA recently reviewed variances currently in effect to identify those that are outdated, unnecessary, or otherwise defective. As part of this review, OSHA PO 00000 Frm 00073 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 contacted by telephone, every employer with an active OSHA variance to determine if they still needed the variance. As a result of this review, OSHA found that one employer identified in a variance had a new name, and two additional employers no longer needed the variances because conditions at their worksite addressed by the variance no longer exist. With this notice, the Agency is correcting these technical deficiencies and is announcing the following: (1) Revocation of a permanent variance granted to Rollins College in 1974 from 29 CFR 1910.37(i) [39 FR 11481]; (2) revocation of a permanent variance granted to AmerenUE (formerly Union Electric Company) in 1974 from 29 CFR 1910.28(g)(1) [39 FR 37278]; and (3) renaming CBS Outdoor Systems, Inc. (formerly Gannett Outdoor Companies, operating as Outdoor Systems, Inc.) granted a permanent variance in 1991 from 29 CFR 1910.27(d)(l)(ii), (d)(2), and (d)(5) [56 FR 8801] to Outfront Media, LLC. Rollins College and AmerenUE representatives confirmed by letter that they no longer needed the variances because conditions which prompted them to seek the variances no longer exist; and they now can comply with the standard from which OSHA granted the variances. Company representatives requested that OSHA revoke their respective variances. Additionally, an Outfront Media, LLC management representative requested the corporate name change and provided documentation supporting the request. Further, OSHA believes that with this notice it will be able to: (1) Accurately and expeditiously determine the employers covered by a variance; (2) enhance enforcement of the variance; (3) ensure that a variance identifies and covers the appropriate worksites; (4) inform employers and employees that the revoked variances no longer cover the employers, and therefore, the employers must comply with the applicable OSHA standards; and (5) inform employees that the applicable OSHA standards replacing the revoked variances will provide them with the necessary protection. The corporate name change implemented by this notice maintains the employer’s regulatory obligations and does not alter the substantive requirements specified in the original variance. The variance continues to remain in effect and to provide employees with the safety and health protection afforded to them by the original variance. A list of variances that remain in effect by this notice is available on E:\FR\FM\08APN1.SGM 08APN1
