SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DOL,
as part of continuing efforts to reduce
paperwork and respondent burden,
conducts a pre-clearance consultation
program to provide the general public
and Federal agencies an opportunity to
comment on proposed and/or
continuing collections of information
before submitting them to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for final
approval. This program helps to ensure
requested data can be provided in the
desired format, reporting burden (time
and financial resources) is minimized,
collection instruments are clearly
understood, and the impact of collection
requirements can be properly assessed.
This ICR seeks to extend PRA
authorization for the Nondiscrimination
Compliance Information Reporting
information collection that provides
data used to help ensure a recipient of
certain DOL Federal financial assistance
programs does not discriminate in the
administration, management, or
operation of programs and activities.
Information collections covered by this
ICR include (1) a grant applicant
providing assurance that the applicant
is aware of and, as a condition of receipt
of Federal financial assistance, agrees to
comply with the assurance
requirements; (2) a DOL funds recipient
maintaining a record of EO
characteristics data and a log of any EO
complaints for activities under an
applicable DOL funded program; (3) a
person who believes a relevant EO
requirement may have been violated
filing a complaint with either the funds
PO 00000
Frm 00083
Fmt 4703

recipient or with the DOL Civil Rights
Center; (4) a State periodically filing a
plan outlining administrative methods
the State will use to ensure funds are
not used in a discriminatory manner;
and (5) a DOL funds recipient posting
required notices.
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 1225–0077.
Interested parties are encouraged to
provide comments to the contact shown
in the ADDRESSES section. Comments
must be written to receive
consideration. In order to help ensure
appropriate consideration, comments
should mention Control Number 1225–
0077. A commenter may request oral
confirmation that a submission has been
received by contacting the individual
listed in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION
CONTACT section of this notice. No other
method will be used to acknowledge the
receipt of a comment.
Comments submitted in response to
this notice will be a matter of the public
record for this ICR and posted on the
Internet, without redaction. The DOL
will not honor any request to the
contrary for a comment submitted in
response to this notice. The DOL
encourages commenters not to include
sensitive personal information (e.g., a
social security number), confidential
business data (e.g., a bank account
number or trade secret), or other
sensitive statements/information in any
comments.
The DOL is particularly interested in
comments that:
• 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

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Rock Burst Control Plan, (Pertains to
Underground Metal/Nonmetal Mines)
information collection requirements
codified in regulations 30 CFR 57.3461,
which requires an underground metal or
nonmetal mine operator to develop a
rock burst plan within ninety (90) days
after a rock burst has been experienced.
This information is used for work
assignments to ensure miner safety and
to schedule correction work. Despite
having only one (1) respondent in any
given year, the MSHA must maintain
this information collection, as it is part
of a rule of general applicability. See 5
CFR 1320.3(c)(4)(i). Federal Mine Safety
and Health Act of 1977 sections 101(a)
and 103(h) authorize this information
collection. See 30 U.S.C. 811(a), 813(h).
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 1219–0097.
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
August 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 12, 1017 (82 FR 17694.
Interested parties are encouraged to
