[FR Doc. 2017–19650 Filed 9–12–17; 4:15 pm]
BILLING CODE 7020–02–P
This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Producer Price Index (PPI) Survey. The
PPI is a measure of price movements as
an indicator of inflationary trends for
inventory valuation and as a measure of
purchasing power of the dollar at the
primary market level. The PPI is also
used in market and economic research
and as a basis for escalation in long-term
contracts and purchase agreements. This
information collection accumulates data
for the ongoing monthly publication of
the PPI family of indexes. The BLS
Authorizing Statute authorizes this
information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 2.
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 1220–0008.
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
September 30, 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
May 12, 2017 (82 FR 22163).
Interested parties are encouraged to
send comments to the OMB, Office of
Information and Regulatory Affairs at
the address shown in the ADDRESSES
section within thirty (30) days of
publication of this notice in the Federal
Register. In order to help ensure
appropriate consideration, comments

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Occupational Safety and Health
Act (OSH Act) and 29 CFR part 1904
prescribe that certain employers
maintain records of job-related injuries
and illnesses. The injury and illness
records are intended to have multiple
purposes. One purpose is to provide
data needed by OSHA to carry out
enforcement and intervention activities
to provide workers a safe and healthful
work environment. The data are also
needed by the Bureau of Labor Statistics
to report on the number and rate of
occupational injuries and illnesses in
the country. The data also provides
information to employers and workers
of the kinds of injuries and illnesses
occurring in the workplace and their
related hazards. Increased employer
awareness should result in the
identification and voluntary correction
of hazardous workplace conditions.
Likewise, workers who are provided
information on injuries and illnesses
will be more likely to follow safe work
practices and report workplace hazards.
This would generally raise the overall
level of safety and health in the
workplace. OSHA currently has
approval from the Office of Management
and Budget (OMB) for the information
collection requirements contained in 29
CFR part 1904. That approval will
expire on January 31, 2018, unless
OSHA applies for an extension of the
OMB approval. This notice initiates the
process for OSHA to request an
extension of the current OMB approval.
This notice also solicits public
comments on OSHA’s existing
paperwork burden estimates from those
interested parties and seeks public
responses to several questions related to
the development of OSHA’s estimates.
Interested parties are requested to
review OSHA’s estimates, which are
based upon the most current data

available, and to comment on their
accuracy or appropriateness in today’s
workplace situation.
II. Current Actions
OSHA is requesting that OMB extend
its approval of the information
collection requirements contained in 29
CFR part 1904, Recording and Reporting
Occupational Injuries and Illnesses. The
Agency is requesting to reduce its
current burden hour estimate associated
with this Standard from 2,524,458 to
2,253,549 hours for a total reduction of
270,909 hours. The Agency will
summarize the comments submitted in
response to this notice and will include
this summary in the request to OMB.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: 29 CFR part 1904, Recording
and Reporting Occupational Injuries
and Illnesses.
OMB Control Number: 1218–0176.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits; farms; not-for-profit institutions;
State and local government.

Average Time per Response: Various.
Estimated Total Burden Hours:
