SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks to extend PRA authority for the Recordkeeping and Reporting Occupational Injuries and Illnesses information collection. The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (OSHAct) and regulations 29 CFR part 1904 prescribe that certain employers maintain records of job related injuries and illnesses. The OSHA uses the information to carry out enforcement and intervention activities to secure for workers a safe and healthful work environment. The data also provide the Bureau of Labor Statistics information to report on the number and rate of occupational injuries and illnesses in the country. In addition, the data inform employers and workers on 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 receive 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. OSH Act sections 8(c)(2) and 24(b)(2) authorize this information collection. See 29 U.S.C. 657(c)(2), 673(b)(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 VerDate Sep<11>2014 18:17 Mar 13, 2018 Jkt 244001 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 1218–0176. For additional substantive information about this ICR, see the related notice published in the Federal Register on September 14, 2017 (82 FR 43255). 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 1218–0176. 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 clarity of the information to be 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: I. Abstract Supersonic flight over land is currently restricted in the U.S. and many countries because sonic boom noise disturbs people on the ground and can potentially damage private property. NASA is researching the public acceptability of quiet commercial supersonic flight. As sufficient research is assembled, there is potential for a change in federal and international regulations. The 2018 Quiet Supersonic Flight Community Response Test will correlate human annoyance response with low level supersonic exposure in a community setting. The supersonic exposure will be generated with an F– 18 research aircraft performing a specialized maneuver. This effort is designed to evaluate remote aircraft basing and operations, community engagement, sonic boom measurements, and community annoyance surveys. The effort will improve research methods for future community-scale response testing using a purpose-built, low boom flight demonstration aircraft (LBFD).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Abstract

    Supersonic flight over land is currently restricted in the U.S. and 
many countries because sonic boom noise disturbs people on the ground 
and can potentially damage private property. NASA is researching the 
public acceptability of quiet commercial supersonic flight. As 
sufficient research is assembled, there is potential for a change in 
federal and international regulations.
    The 2018 Quiet Supersonic Flight Community Response Test will 
correlate human annoyance response with low level supersonic exposure 
in a community setting. The supersonic exposure will be generated with 
an F-18 research aircraft performing a specialized maneuver. This 
effort is designed to evaluate remote aircraft basing and operations, 
community engagement, sonic boom measurements, and community annoyance 
surveys. The effort will improve research methods for future community-
scale response testing using a purpose-built, low boom flight 
demonstration aircraft (LBFD).

    NASA supported a prior risk reduction field test to evaluate data 
collection methods for low boom community response at Edwards Air Force 
Base (EAFB) in November 2011. The annoyance response findings from the 
study are not readily generalizable to a larger population, as the 
residents at EAFB are accustomed to hearing full level sonic booms on a 
routine basis.
