SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks to extend PRA authority for
the Portable Fire Extinguishers Standard information collection
codified in regulations 29 CFR 1910.157(e)(3). The Standard requires an
Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSH Act) covered employer to
subject each portable fire extinguisher to an annual maintenance
inspection and to record the date of the inspection. The regulation
requires the employer to retain the inspection record for one year
after the last entry or for the life of the shell, whichever is less,
and to make the record available to the OSHA on request. This
recordkeeping requirement assures employees and OSHA compliance
officers that any portable fire extinguisher located in the workplace
will operate normally in case of fire; in addition, this requirement
provides evidence to an OSHA compliance officer during an inspection
that the employer performed the required maintenance checks on the
portable fire extinguishers. OSH Act sections 2 and 8 authorize this
information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 651, 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 1218-0238.
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 July 31, 2017. 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 April 24, 2017 (82 FR
18930).
