SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Immigration and Nationality Act (INA),
as amended, assigns responsibilities to
the Secretary of Labor (Secretary)
relating to the entry and employment of
certain categories of immigrant and
nonimmigrant foreign workers under
the PERM, H–2B, H–1B, H–1B1, and
E–3 programs. The INA requires the
Secretary to certify that the employment
of foreign workers under certain visa
classifications will not adversely affect
the wages and working conditions of
similarly employed workers in the
United States. To render this
certification, the Secretary determines
the prevailing wage for the occupational
classification and area of intended
employment and ensures the employer
offers a wage to the foreign worker that
equals at least the prevailing wage. The
Department uses Forms ETA–9141 and
ETA–9165 to collect information
necessary to determine the prevailing
wage for the applicable occupation and
area of intended employment. For
additional substantive information
about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on
June 14, 2022 (87 FR 35999).
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
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 OMB Control Number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
DOL seeks PRA authorization for this
information collection for three (3)
years. OMB authorization for an ICR
cannot be for more than three (3) years
without renewal. The DOL notes that
information collection requirements
submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs
receive a month-to-month extension
while they undergo review.

I. Background
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–2022–016–C.
Petitioner: Iron Cumberland, LLC, 576
Maple Run Road, Waynesburg,
Pennsylvania 15370.
Mine: Cumberland Mine, MSHA ID
No. 36–05018, located in Greene
County, Pennsylvania.
Regulation Affected: 30 CFR 75.507–
1(a), Electric equipment other than
power-connection points; outby the last
open crosscut; return air; permissibility
requirements.
Modification Request: The petitioner
requests a modification of 30 CFR
75.507–1(a) to permit the CleanSpace
EX Powered Respirator, an intrinsically
safe Powered Air Purifying Respirator
(PAPR), to be used in return air outby
the last open crosscut as an alternative
method for respirable dust protection.
The petitioner states that:
(a) The petitioner previously used the
3M airstream helmets to provide miners
respirable dust protection on the
longwall faces. 3M has discontinued the
Airstream helmet and there are no other
MSHA approved PAPRs available.
(b) The CleanSpace EX Power Unit,
manufactured by CleanSpace, has been
determined to be intrinsically safe
under IECEx and other countries’
standards which provide the same level
of protection.
(c) The CleanSpace EX is certified by
UL under the ANSI/UL 60079–11
standard to be used in hazardous
locations because it meets the intrinsic
safety protection level and is acceptable
in other jurisdictions to use in mines
with the potential for methane
accumulation.
VerDate Sep<11>2014
18:19 Sep 07, 2022
Jkt 256001
(d) CleanSpace is not pursuing MSHA
approval.
The petitioner proposes the following
alternative method:
(a) The equipment will be examined
at least weekly by a qualified person
according to 30 CFR 75.512–2.
Examination results will be recorded
weekly and may be expunged after 1
year.
(b) The petitioner will comply with 30
CFR 75.320.
(c) A qualified person under 30 CFR
75.151 will monitor for methane as is
required by the standard in the affected
area of the mine.
(d) When not in operation, batteries
for the PAPR will be charged on the
surface or underground in intake air and
in return air outby the last open
crosscut.
(e) The following battery charging
products will be used: PAF–0066, PAF–
1100.
(f) Qualified miners will receive
training regarding how to safely use,
care for, and inspect the PAPR, and on
the Decision and Order before using
equipment in the relevant part of the
mine.
(g) A record of the training will be
kept and available upon request.
The petitioner asserts that the
alternative method proposed will at all
times guarantee no less than the same
measure of protection afforded the
miners under the mandatory standard.
