Jkt 244001
The DFVC Program is intended to
encourage, through the assessment of
reduced civil penalties, delinquent plan
administrators voluntarily to comply
with their annual reporting obligations
under Employee Retirement Income
Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) Title I.
The only information collection
requirement included in the DFVC
Program is to provide data necessary to
identify the plan along with the penalty
payment. ERISA section 502(c)(2)
authorizes this information collection.
See U.S.C. 1132(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 1210–0089.
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 22, 2017 (82 FR 23303).
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
should mention OMB Control Number
1210–0089. The OMB 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

collected; and
• Minimize the burden of the
collection of information on those who
are to respond, including through the
use of appropriate automated,
electronic, mechanical, or other
technological collection techniques or
other forms of information technology,
e.g., permitting electronic submission of
responses.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Mine Accident, Injury, and Illness
Report and Quarterly Mine Employment
and Coal Production Report information
collection. The reporting and
recordkeeping provisions in regulations
30 CFR part 50, Notification,
Investigation, Reports and Records of
Accidents, Injuries and Illnesses,
Employment and Coal Production in
Mines, are essential elements in the
MSHA’s Congressional mandate to
reduce work-related injuries and
illnesses among the nation’s miners.
Accident, injury, and illness data, when
correlated with employment and
production data, provide information
that allows the MSHA to improve its
safety and health enforcement programs,
focus its education and training efforts,
and establish priorities for its technical
assistance activities in mine safety and
health. Maintaining a current database
allows the MSHA to identify and direct
increased attention to those mines,
industry segments, and geographical
areas where hazardous trends are
developing. This could not be done
effectively using historical data. The
information collected under part 50 is
the most comprehensive and reliable
occupational data available concerning

the mining industry. The Federal Mine
Safety and Health Act of 1977 sections
101(a) and 103(h) authorize this
information collection. See 30 U.S.C.
813(h), 30 U.S.C. 811(a).
This information collection is subject
to the PRA. A Federal agency generally
cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
of information, and the public is

CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL
obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control
Number 1219–0007.
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
