Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 12 / Thursday, January 18, 2018 / Notices
which the worker will use the
respirator; and administer fit tests for
workers who will use negative- or
positive-pressure, tight-fitting
facepieces. In addition, employers must
ensure that workers store emergency-use
respirators in compartments clearly
marked as containing emergency-use
respirators. For respirators maintained
for emergency use, employers must
label or tag the respirator with a
certificate stating the date of the
inspection, the name of the individual
who did the inspection, the findings of
the inspection, required remedial
action, and the identity of the respirator.
The Standard also requires employers
to ensure that cylinders used to supply
breathing air to respirators have a
certificate of analysis from the supplier
stating that the breathing air meets the
requirements for Type 1—Grade D
breathing air; such certification assures
employers that the purchased breathing
air is safe. Compressors used to supply
breathing air to respirators must have a
tag containing the most recent change
date and the signature of the individual
authorized by the employer to perform
the change. Employers must maintain
this tag at the compressor. These tags
provide assurance that the compressors
are functioning properly.

II. Special Issues for Comment
OSHA has a particular interest in
comments on the following issues:
• Whether the proposed information
collection requirements are necessary
for the proper performance of the
Agency’s functions, including whether
the information is useful;
• The accuracy of OSHA’s estimate of
the burden (time and costs) of the
information collection requirements,
including the validity of the
methodology and assumptions used;
• The quality, utility, and clarity of
the information collected; and
• Ways to minimize the burden on
employers who must comply; for
example, by using automated or other
technological information collection
and transmission techniques.
III. Proposed Actions
OSHA is requesting that OMB extend
its approval of the information
collection requirements contained in the
Respiratory Protection Standard (29 CFR
1910.134). The Agency is requesting an
adjustment increase in the number of
burden hours from 6,642,537 to
7,622,100 hours, a total increase of
979,563 burden hours. This increase is
based on updated data showing an
increase in the number of covered
establishments. In addition, OSHA is
requesting an adjustment increase of

I. Abstract
Citizen science and crowdsourcing
are tools that engage, educate and
empower the public to apply their
curiosity and contribute their talents to
a wide range of scientific and societal
issues. NASA’s mission is to reach for
new heights and reveal the unknown so
that what we do and learn will benefit
all humankind. NASA uses the vantage
point of space to achieve with the
science community and our partners a
deep scientific understanding of our
planet, other planets and solar system
bodies, the interplanetary environment,
the Sun and its effects on the solar
system, and the universe beyond.
Citizen science and crowdsourcing can
support NASA’s mission and purpose
by providing new opportunities to
explore our solar system and our own
home planet like never before,
producing critical data that expands our
knowledge of the universe, and
advancing our ability to provide societal
benefit through the synergy of satellite
and ground based observations.
II. Methods of Collection
Citizen science and crowdsourcing
collections submitted under this generic
clearance can be stand-alone projects or
the methods may be incorporated into
an existing or new project, including,
but not limited to, projects in the
following typology:
• Data gathering projects. These
projects may include (1) observation,
characterization and documentation of
natural phenomena or general
environmental health observations,
opinions, or preferences or (2) surveying
participants or screening environmental
conditions, including using specialized
equipment provided by project leaders
to record and submit data, or submitting
samples plus descriptors (e.g. of air or
water) for testing. Data may be collected
using technologies mentioned above,
through structured data forms, surveys,
focus groups or interviews, submitting
photographs or other media, surveys or
questionnaires, or providing written
observations.
• Classification/problem solving
projects. Participants’ tasks may
include: (1) Observation of recorded
materials provided by project organizers
(images, video, etc.) through structured
data submission forms, surveys or
questionnaires in an online or computer

program, clicking boxes, highlighting
parts of text or image, and providing
comments and/or annotations; (2)
Classification of images or sounds using
structured data submission forms or
clicking boxes in an online or computer
program; (3) Transcribing information,
by typing handwritten logs or notes; (4)
Performing a function meant to generate
human behavior data; or (5) Problemsolving or manipulation of data. Tasks
1–5 may be conducted via structured
actions or instructions or through the
use of ‘‘human-based computational
game’’ or ‘‘game with a purpose’’, a
human-based computational technique
in which a computational process
performs its function by presenting
certain steps to humans in an
entertaining way.
