the lock-up facility, internet users are
not allowed to digest data 30 minutes
before the official release time. Internet
users are also disadvantaged relative to
lock-up participants to the extent that
internet postings may lag slightly
behind lock-up transmissions.
Developments in high-speed algorithmic
trading technology have also raised
concerns about the possible impact of
unequal access to sensitive economic
data. As discussed above, DOL’s
Inspector General has issued multiple
reports with findings that the current
press lock-up ‘‘creates an unfair
competitive advantage for certain news
organizations and their clients.’’
It was never the intent of DOL in
establishing the lock-up facility to
provide a financial windfall to paying
clients of credentialed media
organizations, or to allow credentialed
media organizations to profit off of the
privilege of early access to government
data. DOL does not wish to facilitate
those practices. Although DOL
understands that certain high-frequency
trading firms may retain some advantage
in faster ingestion and downloading of
government data even after the lock-up
process is discontinued, DOL itself will
no longer have any role in facilitating
such an advantage.
It is no longer necessary to use the
credentialed news media to help the
Department disseminate DOL’s
statistical data widely because the
internet permits the public and
interested users to obtain releases for
themselves. Discontinuing the lock-up
will not disadvantage the lock-up
participants; it will merely remove the
advantage they currently enjoy. In the
time since the OIG recommendations
were issued, BLS and ETA have devoted
significant resources to introducing
improved technologies to ensure data
are posted and accessible on their
websites immediately following the
official release time. When the COVID–
19 pandemic required the closure of the
media lock-up in March of 2020, these
improved technologies allowed BLS and
ETA to disseminate the data
immediately and widely to the public
without incident and without providing
early access to lock-up participants.
Specifically, the March Employment
Situation report, released on April 3,
2020 without a lock-up, demonstrates
that the BLS website can serve all
interested users in the seconds after
release time with little or no
degradation in response time and a
negligible error rate. The same holds
true for the Unemployment Insurance
Weekly Claims Reports issued since
March 20, 2020. Stories in the press
covering the March data were available

to the public only slightly later—and, in
at least one case, actually earlier—than
they were a month earlier when a lockup was held. Given this success over the
past two months, DOL now believes it
can continue to disseminate the data to
the public, including the media, in a
timely manner. DOL will therefore
discontinue the use of the lock-up
facility to allow all parties, including
the media, commercial entities, and the
public, equitable and timely access to
our most important statistical data.
IV. Result
By permanently discontinuing the
lock-up facility as of June 3, 2020, DOL
intends to protect the integrity of its
data and enable dissemination of news
releases in an equitable, secure, and
cost-effective manner so that all
information is available to the public
and the media at the official release
time.
The Commerce Department’s Bureau
of Economic Analysis and U.S. Census
Bureau are also committed to the secure,
timely, and equitable release of all data.
As such, for the reasons stated in this
notice, both Bureaus will also
discontinue embargoed media lock-ups
at the Department of Labor’s facility and
will continue to release their data
securely through their websites.

Cancellation of Program Policy Letter
Signed at Washington, DC, this 19th day of
May 2020.
William W. Beach,
Commissioner of Labor Statistics.
On July 29, 2019, MSHA published in
the Federal Register a PPL to clarify
requirements in 30 CFR 57.11050,
Escapeways and Refuges, together with
a request for public comment (84 FR
36623). The PPL was intended to assist
MNM mine operators with guidance on
the placement of escapeways and
refuges that underground miners need
to use in emergency situations. On
October 10, 2019, MSHA also held a
public stakeholder meeting to ensure
that the public would have additional
opportunities to provide feedback. After
reviewing all the comments received
during both the public comment period
and the stakeholder meeting, MSHA has
now determined that the clarification in
this PPL is not needed. Therefore,
MSHA cancels the PPL.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
II. Special Issues for Comment
I. Background
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.
The Department of Labor, as part of
the 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 (PRA) (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 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 businesses, and to
reduce to the maximum extent feasible
unnecessary duplication of efforts in
obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The EtO Standard (29 CFR 1910.1047)
specifies a number of paperwork
requirements. The following is a brief
description of the collection of
information requirements contained in
the standard.
The information collection
requirements specified in the Ethylene
Oxide Standard protect workers from
the adverse health effects that may
result from occupational exposure to
ethylene oxide. The principal
information collection requirements in
the EtO Standard include conducting
worker exposure monitoring, notifying
workers of the exposure, implementing
a written compliance program, and
implementing medical surveillance of
workers. Also, the examining physician
must provide specific information to
ensure that workers receive a copy of
their medical examination results. The
employer must maintain exposuremonitoring and medical records for
specific periods, and provide access to
these records by OSHA, the National
Institute for Occupational Safety and
Health, the affected workers, and their
authorized representatives and other
designated parties.

III. Proposed Actions
OSHA is requesting that OMB extend
the approval of the collection of
information (paperwork) requirements
contained in the Ethylene Oxide
Standard. There is an overall adjustment
increase in burden hours for this ICR.
The burden hours have increased a total
of 3,377 hours (from 27,880 hours to
31,257 hours). The adjustment increase
is primarily due to estimated number of
establishments covered by the standard.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.

for-profits.
