Overview of This Information
Collection
1. Type of Information Collection:
Reinstatement of a discontinued
collection.
2. Title of the Form/Collection:
Recordkeeping for Electronic
Prescriptions for Controlled Substance.
3. The agency form number, if any,
and the applicable component of the
Department sponsoring the collection:
There is no form number. The
applicable component within the
Department of Justice is the Drug
Enforcement Administration, Diversion
Control Division.
4. Affected public who will be asked
or required to respond, as well as a brief
abstract:
Affected public (Primary): Business or
other for-profit.
Affected public (Other): Not-for-profit
institutions; Federal, State, local, and
tribal governments.
Abstract: DEA is requiring that each
registered practitioner apply to an
approved credential service provider
approved to obtain identity proofing
and a credential. Hospitals and other
institutional practitioners may conduct
this process in-house as part of their
credentialing. For practitioners
currently working at or affiliated with a
registered hospital or clinic, the
hospital/clinic have to check a
government-issued photographic
identification. This may be done when
the hospital/clinic issues credentials to
new hires or newly affiliated
physicians. For individual practitioners,
two people need to enter logical access
control data to grant permissions for
practitioners authorized to approve and
sign controlled substance prescriptions
using the electronic prescription
application. For institutional
practitioners, logical access control data
is entered by two people from an entity
within the hospital/clinic that is
separate from the entity that conduct
identity proofing in-house. Similarly,
pharmacies have to set logical access
controls in the pharmacy application so
that only authorized employees have
permission to annotate or alter
prescription records. Finally, if the
electronic prescription or pharmacy
application generates an incident report,
practitioners, hospitals/clinics, and
pharmacies have to review the incident
report to determine if the event
identified by the application represents
a security incident.
5. An estimate of the total number of
respondents and the amount of time
estimated for an average respondent to
respond: The below table presents
information regarding the number of
respondents, hour burden per responses
and associated burden hours.

I. Background
Crystal Rennie,
Senior PRA Analyst.
Section 101(c) of the Federal Mine
Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine
Act) allows the mine operator or
representative of miners to file a
petition to modify the application of any
mandatory safety standard to a coal or
other mine if the Secretary of Labor
determines that:
1. An alternative method of achieving
the result of such standard exists which
will at all times guarantee no less than
the same measure of protection afforded
the miners of such mine by such
standard; or
2. The application of such standard to
such mine will result in a diminution of
safety to the miners in such mine.
In addition, sections 44.10 and 44.11
of 30 CFR establish the requirements for
filing petitions for modification.

II. Petition for Modification
Docket Number: M–2021–026–C.
Petitioner: Marion County Coal
Resources, Inc., 151 Johnnycake Road,
Metz, West Virginia (Zip 26585).
Mine: Marion County Mine, MSHA ID
No. 46–01433, located in Marion
County, West Virginia.
Regulation Affected: 30 CFR 75–1700
(Oil and gas wells).
Modification Request: The petitioner
requests a modification of the existing
standard, 30 CFR 75.1700, as it relates
to oil and gas wells at the mine. The
operator is petitioning to plug two gas
wells in the Marcellus shale.

The petitioner states that:
(a) The Marion County Mine desires
to plug two ‘‘unconventional’’ gas wells
in the Marcellus shale not covered by
the Consent Order at docket No. 2017–
MSA–06. These are:
(1) The Esther Clark 1H Marcellus Gas
Well American Petroleum Institute
(API) #: 47–061–01616; and
(2) The Esther Clark 3H Marcellus Gas
Well API #: 47–061–01623.
(b) The Marion County Mine employs
approximately 712 miners and produces
approximately 25,000 tons of
bituminous coal per day from the
Pittsburgh #8 coal seam with an average
mine height of 84 inches. At this time,
there are no coal seams being mined
stratigraphically down section from the
Pittsburgh seam. The mine is accessed
through one slope and eight airshafts.
The mine operates three production
shifts per day, five days per week, on
three working sections—one longwall,
an advancing gate section, and a mains
section utilizing continuous mining
machines. The mine liberates 9,000,000
cubic feet of methane on a daily basis.
(c) On July 5, 2018, MSHA and
Marion County entered into a settlement
concerning the contest of certain
conditions in a Proposed Decision and
Order concerning 30 CFR 75.1700 at
docket No. 2017–MSA–06. That
agreement specifically excluded certain
types of wells as follows:
Unconventional wells in the Marcellus
and Utica, and all other unconventional
shale oil and gas wells are not subject
to this modification.
The petitioner proposes the following
alternative method:
(a) District Manager approval
required.
(1) The mine operator shall maintain
a safety barrier of 300 feet in diameter
around the Esther Clark 1H and 3H Gas
Wells until the District Manager
approves to proceed with mining.
(2) Prior to mining within the safety
barrier around these wells, the mine
operator shall provide to the District
Manager a sworn affidavit or declaration
executed by the company official who is
in charge of health and safety at the
mine stating that all mandatory
procedures for cleaning out, preparing,
and plugging each gas well have been
completed. The affidavit or declaration
must be accompanied by all logs,
electronic or otherwise, described below
in section (b) (7) and any other records
the District Manager requires.
(3) This petition applies to all types
of underground coal mining at the mine.
(b) The petitioner proposes to use the
following mandatory procedures, when
cleaning out and preparing the Ester
