Notice is
hereby given that, pursuant to 16 U.S.C.
460o-2(b), the boundary of Delaware
Water Gap National Recreation Area is
adjusted to include two properties
totaling 45.22 acres of land in
Pennsylvania: 44.11 acres are identified
as Parcel No. 183.00–01–29.003—in
Lehman Township, Pike County; and
1.11 acres that are a portion of the
undeveloped roadways located south of
Huckleberry Drive in Middle Smithfield
Township, Monroe County. This
boundary adjustment is depicted on
Map No. 620/165,341 dated October,
2019.
Specifically, 16 U.S.C. 460o–2(b)
states that the Secretary of the Interior
may make adjustments to the boundary
of Delaware Water Gap National
Recreation Area by publication of the
amended description thereof in the
Federal Register: Provided, that the area
encompassed by such revised boundary
shall not exceed the acreage included
within the detailed boundary first
described in the Federal Register on
June 7, 1977 (42 FR 29071–29103). This
boundary adjustment does not exceed
the acreage of the detailed boundary so
described. The Conservation Fund owns
the property in Pike County and will
convey it to the United States without
cost to help mitigate the effects of the
upgrade and expansion of the
Susquehanna-Roseland electric
transmission line across approximately
4.3 miles of the National Recreation
Area. The property in Monroe County is
already owned by the United States
pursuant to a prior conveyance from
The Conservation Fund for the same
purpose.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
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 accord with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (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 OSHA to 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).
Paragraph (b)(1) of the Standard 29
CFR 1926.251 requires that alloy steel
chains have permanently affixed,
durable identification tags stating size,
grade, rated capacity, and sling
manufacturer. Paragraph (b)(6)(i)
E:\FR\FM\24JNN1.SGM
24JNN1
Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 122 / Wednesday, June 24, 2020 / Notices
requires the employer to make a
thorough periodic inspection of alloy
steel chain slings in use on a regular
basis, but at least once a year. Paragraph
(b)(6)(ii) requires the employer to make
and maintain a record of the most recent
month in which each alloy steel chain
was inspected and make the record
available for examination.
Paragraph (c)(15)(ii) requires that all
welded end attachments of wire rope
slings be proof tested by the
manufacturer at twice their rated
capacity prior to initial use, and that the
employer retain a certificate of the proof
test and make it available for
examination.
Paragraphs (e)(1)(i), (ii), and (iii)
require that synthetic web slings be
marked or coded to show the
manufacturer’s name or trademark, the
rated capacity for the type of hitch, and
the type of synthetic webbing material.
Paragraph (f)(2) requires that all hooks
for which no applicable manufacturer’s
recommendations are available be tested
twice before they are put into use. The
employer shall maintain a record of the
dates and results of the tests.

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
There is an adjustment decrease of
3,269 burden hours (from 52,428 hours
to 49,159 hours). This decrease is a
result of new data indicating a decrease
in the number of cranes and derricks
from 122,091 to 115,829.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Rigging Equipment for Material
Handling (29 CFR 1926.251).
OMB Control Number: 1218–0233.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits.
Number of Respondents: 115,829.

certificate to 30 minutes (30/60 hour) for
an employer to acquire information and
