The DOL Veterans’ Employment and Training Service (VETS) administers funds for the multiyear Jobs for Veterans’ State Grants (JVSG) to each State, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, and Guam on an annual basis on a fiscal year cycle. These forms are used to facilitate the identification of required programmatic and financial data provided by States requesting and expending funds and for monitoring the grants, making quarterly adjustments and reporting results to Congress. The use of program-specific standard VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:43 Sep 06, 2019 Jkt 247001 formats helps to ensure that requested data can be provided in a uniform way, reporting burdens are minimized, the impact of collection requirements on respondents are properly assessed, collection instruments are clearly understood by respondents, and the information is easily consolidated for posting in accordance with statutory requirements. See 38 U.S.C. 4102A. This information collection request allows the agency to use a revised version of the same information collection under the OMB Control Number provided with the original approval and has been classified as a reinstatement because a previously approved collection has expired or the agency had subsequently decided to discontinue the collection. This request allows the agency to use a revised version of the same information collection under the OMB Control Number provided with the original approval. This proposed 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 the OMB under the PRA approves it 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 if the collection of information does not display a valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. For additional substantive information, see the related notice published in the Federal Register on April 5, 2019 (84 FR 13723). 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 1293–0009. 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 PO 00000 Frm 00093 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 47325 • 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: jbell on DSK3GLQ082PROD with NOTICES I. Background The Department of Labor, as part of a continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent (i.e., employer) burden, conducts a preclearance consultation program to provide the public with an opportunity to comment on proposed and continuing information collection requirements in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA–95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program ensures that information is in the desired format, reporting burden (time and costs) is minimal, collection instruments are clearly understood, and OSHA’s VerDate Sep<11>2014 20:43 Sep 06, 2019 Jkt 247001 estimate of the information collection burden is accurate. The Occupational Safety and Health Act of 1970 (the Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et seq.) authorizes information collection by employers as necessary or appropriate for enforcement of the Act or for developing information regarding the causes and prevention of occupational injuries, illnesses, and accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). Subpart I specifies several paperwork requirements. The following describes the information collection requirements in subpart I and addresses who will use the information. Hazard Assessment and Verification (§ 1910.132(d) & (g)) Paragraph 1910.132(d)(1) and the Personal Fall Protection standard require that employers perform a hazard assessment of the workplace to determine whether hazards are present, or likely to be present, that make the use of PPE necessary.1 Where such hazards are present, employers must select and have each affected worker use PPE that protects them from the identified hazards (§ 1910.132(d)(1)(i)), and communicate PPE selection decisions to each affected worker (§ 1910.132(d)(1)(ii)). Paragraph 1910.132(d)(2) requires that employers certify in writing they have performed the required hazard assessment. The certification must include the date, the name of the person certifying that the hazard assessment was conducted, and identification of the workplace evaluated (area or location). The Personal Fall Protection standard expands the hazard assessment requirement to personal fall protection systems (§ 1910.132(g)). Conducting a PPE hazard assessment ensures that potential workplace hazards necessitating PPE use have been identified and that the PPE selected is appropriate for those hazards and the affected workers. Communicating information on PPE selection decisions to affected workers ensures they are aware that the PPE selected will protect them from the hazards that the assessment identified. The certification of the hazard assessment verifies that employers have conducted the required assessment. II. Special Issues for Comment OSHA has a particular interest in comments on the following issues: 1 Section 1910.132(g) specifies that the hazard assessment (§ 1910.132(d)) requirements only apply to PPE for the eyes, face, head, feet, and hands. The final rule revised § 1910.132(g) to also apply the hazard assessment requirement to personal fall protection systems.

III. Proposed Actions OSHA is requesting that OMB extend approval of the information collection requirements contained in the Personal Protective Equipment Standard for General Industry (29 CFR part 1910, subpart I). OSHA is proposing to decrease the burden hours in the currently approved information collection request from 3,745,218 hours to 3,673,168, a total adjustment decrease of 72,050 hours. This decrease is due to updated data showing a decrease in the number of establishments using fall protection systems by the standard. 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    The Department of Labor, as part of a continuing effort to reduce 
paperwork and respondent (i.e., employer) burden, conducts a 
preclearance consultation program to provide the public with an 
opportunity to comment on proposed and continuing information 
collection requirements in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act 
of 1995 (PRA-95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)).
    This program ensures that information is in the desired format, 
reporting burden (time and costs) is minimal, collection instruments 
are clearly understood, and OSHA's estimate of the information 
collection burden is accurate. The Occupational Safety and Health Act 
of 1970 (the Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et seq.) authorizes information 
collection by employers as necessary or appropriate for enforcement of 
the Act or for developing information regarding the causes and 
prevention of occupational injuries, illnesses, and accidents (29 
U.S.C. 657).
    Subpart I specifies several paperwork requirements. The following 
describes the information collection requirements in subpart I and 
addresses who will use the information.

Hazard Assessment and Verification (Sec.  1910.132(d) & (g))

    Paragraph 1910.132(d)(1) and the Personal Fall Protection standard 
require that employers perform a hazard assessment of the workplace to 
determine whether hazards are present, or likely to be present, that 
make the use of PPE necessary.\1\ Where such hazards are present, 
employers must select and have each affected worker use PPE that 
protects them from the identified hazards (Sec.  1910.132(d)(1)(i)), 
and communicate PPE selection decisions to each affected worker (Sec.  
1910.132(d)(1)(ii)).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \1\ Section 1910.132(g) specifies that the hazard assessment 
(Sec.  1910.132(d)) requirements only apply to PPE for the eyes, 
face, head, feet, and hands. The final rule revised Sec.  
1910.132(g) to also apply the hazard assessment requirement to 
personal fall protection systems.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Paragraph 1910.132(d)(2) requires that employers certify in writing 
they have performed the required hazard assessment. The certification 
must include the date, the name of the person certifying that the 
hazard assessment was conducted, and identification of the workplace 
evaluated (area or location). The Personal Fall Protection standard 
expands the hazard assessment requirement to personal fall protection 
systems (Sec.  1910.132(g)).
    Conducting a PPE hazard assessment ensures that potential workplace 
hazards necessitating PPE use have been identified and that the PPE 
selected is appropriate for those hazards and the affected workers. 
Communicating information on PPE selection decisions to affected 
workers ensures they are aware that the PPE selected will protect them 
from the hazards that the assessment identified. The certification of 
the hazard assessment verifies that employers have conducted the 
required assessment.

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 approval of the information 
collection requirements contained in the Personal Protective Equipment 
Standard for General Industry (29 CFR part 1910, subpart I). OSHA is 
proposing to decrease the burden hours in the currently approved 
information collection request from 3,745,218 hours to 3,673,168, a 
total adjustment decrease of 72,050 hours. This decrease is due to 
updated data showing a decrease in the number of establishments using 
fall protection systems by the standard. 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: Personal Protective Equipment for General Industry (PPE) (29 
CFR part 1910, subpart I).
    OMB Number: 1218-0205.
