SUMMARY:
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:58 Jun 28, 2018
This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Bloodborne Pathogens Standard
information collection requirements
codified in regulations 29 CFR
1910.1030. The Bloodborne Pathogen
Standard is an occupational safety and
health standard that prevents
occupational exposure to bloodborne
pathogens. The standard’s information
collection requirements are essential
components that protect workers from
occupational exposure. The information
is used by employers and workers to
implement the protection required by
the Standard. OSHA compliance officers
will use some of the information in
enforcing the Standard. The collections
of information contained in the
Bloodborne Pathogens Standard include
a written exposure control plan,
documentation of workers’ hepatitis B
vaccinations and post-exposure
evaluations and follow-up medical
visits, training, related recordkeeping
and a sharps injury log. Information
generated in accordance with these
provisions provides the employer and
the worker with means to provide
protection from the adverse health
effects associated with occupational
exposure to bloodborne pathogens.
Occupational Safety and Health Act
sections 2(b)(9), 6, and 8(c) authorize
this information collection. See 29
U.S.C. 651(b)(9), 655, and 657(c).
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 1218–0180.
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 18, 2018 (83 FR 17194).

• Enhance the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected; and

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 approval under the PRA for
revisions to the National Longitudinal
Survey of Youth 1979 (NLSY79). The
NLSY79 is a representative national
sample of persons who were born in the
years 1957 to 1964 and lived in the U.S.
in 1978. These respondents were ages
14 to 22 when the first round of
interviews began in 1979; they are ages
53–60 when the planned round twentyeight of interviews is conducted in 2018
and 2019. The NLSY79 was conducted
annually from 1979 to 1994 and has
been conducted biennially since 1994.
The longitudinal focus of this survey
VerDate Sep<11>2014
17:58 Jun 28, 2018
Jkt 244001
requires information to be collected
from the same individuals over many
years in order to trace their education,
training, work experience, fertility,
income, and program participation. In
addition to the main NLSY79, the
biological children of female NLSY79
respondents have been surveyed since
1986. A battery of child cognitive, socioemotional, and physiological
assessments has been administered
biennially since 1986 to NLSY79
mothers and their children. Starting in
1994, children who had reached age 15
by December 31, of the survey year (the
Young Adults) were interviewed about
their work experiences, training,
schooling, health, fertility, self-esteem,
and other topics. One of the goals of the
DOL is to produce and disseminate
timely, accurate, and relevant
information about the U.S. labor force.
The BLS contributes to this goal by
gathering information about the labor
force and labor market and
disseminating it to policymakers and
the public so that participants in those
markets can make more informed, and
thus more efficient, choices. Research
based on the NLSY79 contributes to the
formation of national policy in the areas
of education, training, employment
programs, and school-to-work
transitions. This information collection
has been classified as a revision,
because of changes to the questionnaire
that make it longer and more ‘‘older
young adult’’ respondents and young
adult respondents with children, who
tend to have longer interview times.
BLS Authorizing Statute Title 29
sections 1 and 2 authorize this
information collection. See 29 U.S.C.
1&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 1220–0109. The current
approval is scheduled to expire on
October 31, 2019; however, the DOL
notes that existing information
collection requirements submitted to the
OMB receive a month-to-month
extension while they undergo review.
