SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR
seeks to extend PRA authority for the
Cadmium in Construction Standard (29
CFR 1926.1127) information collection.
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 OSH Act) (29
U.S.C. 651 et seq.) authorizes
information collection by employers as
necessary or appropriate for
enforcement of the OSH Act or for
developing information regarding the
causes and prevention of occupational
injuries, illnesses, and accidents (29
U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act also requires
that OSHA obtain such information
with minimum burden upon employers,
especially those operating small
PO 00000
Frm 00113
Fmt 4703
Sfmt 4703
5723
businesses, and to reduce to the
maximum extent feasible unnecessary
duplication of effort in obtaining
information (29 U.S.C. 657). The
collection of information requirements
specified in the Cadmium in
Construction Standard (29 CFR
1926.1127) protect workers from the
adverse health effects that may result
from their exposure to cadmium. The
major collection of information
requirements of the Standard include:
Conducting worker exposure
monitoring, notifying workers of their
cadmium exposures, implementing a
written compliance program,
implementing medical surveillance of
workers, providing examining
physicians with specific information,
ensuring that workers receive a copy of
their medical surveillance results,
maintaining workers’ exposure
monitoring and medical surveillance
records for specific periods, and
providing access to these records by the
worker who is the subject of the records,
the worker’s representative, and other
designated parties.
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 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 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–
0186.
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
January 31, 2020. 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
November 29, 2019 (84 FR 65844).
Interested parties are encouraged to
