The entirety of the Department’s semiannual agenda is available online at www.reginfo.gov. The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 602) requires DOL to publish in the Federal Register a regulatory SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Office of the Secretary, Labor. Semiannual Regulatory Agenda. The internet has become the means for disseminating the entirety of the Department of Labor’s semiannual regulatory agenda. However, the Regulatory Flexibility Act requires publication of a regulatory flexibility agenda in the Federal Register. This SUMMARY: flexibility agenda. The Department’s Regulatory Flexibility Agenda, published with this notice, includes only those rules on its semiannual agenda that are likely to have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities; and those rules identified for periodic review in keeping with the requirements of section 610 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. Thus, the regulatory flexibility agenda is a subset of the Department’s semiannual regulatory agenda. The Department’s Regulatory Flexibility Agenda does not include section 610 items at this time. All interested members of the public are invited and encouraged to let departmental officials know how our regulatory efforts can be improved and are invited to participate in and comment on the review or development of the regulations listed on the Department’s agenda.

See 86 FR 1168 (2021 IC Rule). The Department subsequently published final rules to delay and withdraw the 2021 IC Rule on March 4, 2021, and May 6, 2021, respectively. See 86 FR 12535 (Delay Rule); 86 FR 24303 (Withdrawal Rule). On March 14, 2022, a district court in the Eastern District of Texas vacated the Department’s Delay and Withdrawal Rules, concluding that the 2021 IC Rule became effective as of March 8, 2021.The Department continues to believe that the 2021 IC Rule does not fully comport with the FLSA’s text and purpose as interpreted by courts and has proposed to rescind the 2021 IC rule and set forth an analysis for determining employee or independent contractor status under the Act that is more consistent with existing judicial precedent and the Department’s longstanding guidance prior to the 2021 IC rule.

Abstract: The United States Department of Labor’s (DOL) Employment and Training Administration and Wage and Hour Division, and the United States Department of Homeland Security (DHS), U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, are jointly proposing to update the H–2B visa program regulations at 20 CFR part 655, subpart A, the related prevailing wage regulations at 20 CFR 656, and 8 CFR 214 governing the certification of the employment of H–2B non-immigrant workers in temporary or seasonal nonagricultural employment and the enforcement of the obligations applicable to employers of such nonimmigrant workers and U.S. workers in corresponding employment. Specifically, the Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) would update the process by which employers seeking to employ H–2B workers would obtain temporary certification from DOL for use in petitioning DHS to employ a nonimmigrant worker in H–2B status. The updates would also establish standards and procedures for employers seeking to hire foreign temporary nonagricultural workers for certain itinerant job opportunities, including entertainers, tree planting, and utility vegetation management.

Abstract: The Department of Labor’s (DOL) Employment and Training Administration and Wage and Hour Division propose to amend regulations to improve working conditions and protections for workers engaged in temporary agricultural employment in the United States; and strengthen protections in the recruitment, job order clearance, and oversight processes. The proposed regulatory changes involve the Employment Service and the H–2A nonimmigrant visa program at 29 CFR part 501 and 20 CFR parts 651, 653, 654, 655, and 658. The Department has identified a need to strengthen and clarify protections for all temporary agricultural workers, including U.S. workers and workers employed through the H–2A temporary agricultural program. The H–2A temporary agricultural program allows agricultural employers to perform agricultural labor or services of a temporary or seasonal nature so long as there are not sufficient able, willing, and qualified U.S. workers to perform the work and the employment of H–2A workers does not adversely affect the wages and working conditions of similarly employed workers in the United States. The use of the H–2A program has grown substantially in recent years and the Department is committed to protecting agricultural workers in light of their significant vulnerabilities.

Timetable: Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 Legal Authority: 29 U.S.C. 1104; 29 U.S.C. 1135 Abstract: This rulemaking implements Executive Order 13990 of January 20, 2021, titled Protecting Public Health and the Environment and Restoring Science to Tackle the Climate Crisis, and Executive Order 14030 of May 20, 2021, titled Climate-Related Financial Risks. Among other things, these Executive Orders direct Federal agencies to review existing regulations promulgated, issued, or adopted between January 20, 2017, and January 20, 2021, that are or may be inconsistent with, or present obstacles to, the policies set forth in section 1 of the orders 86 FR 7037 (January 25, 2021); 86 FR 27967 (May 25, 2021). Such policies include the promotion and protection of public health and the environment and ensuring that agency activities are guided by the best science and protected by processes that ensure the integrity of Federal decision-making, and to advance consistent, clear, intelligible, comparable, and accurate disclosure of climate-related financial risk, including both physical and transition risks.

Over the past 20 years, this industry has experienced an average fatality rate that greatly exceeds that of the construction industry. Due to recent FCC spectrum auctions and innovations in cellular technology, there will be a very high level of construction activity taking place on communication towers over the next few years. A similar increase in the number of construction projects needed to support cellular phone coverage triggered a spike in fatality and injury rates years ago. Based on information collected from an April PO 00000 Frm 00005 Fmt 4701 Sfmt 4702 11255 2015 Request for Information (RFI), OSHA concluded that current OSHA requirements such as those for fall protection and personnel hoisting, may not adequately cover all hazards of communication tower construction and maintenance activities. OSHA will use information collected from a Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act (SBREFA) panel to identify effective work practices and advances in engineering technology that would best address industry safety and health concerns. The Panel carefully considered the issue of the expansion of the rule beyond just communication towers. OSHA will continue to consider also covering structures that have telecommunications equipment on or attached to them (e.g., buildings, rooftops, water towers, billboards).

Emergency Response [1218–AC91] Legal Authority: 29 U.S.C. 655(b); 29 U.S.C. 657; 5 U.S.C. 609 Abstract: OSHA currently regulates aspects of emergency response and preparedness; some of these standards were promulgated decades ago, and none were designed as comprehensive emergency response standards. Consequently, they do not address the full range of hazards or concerns currently facing emergency responders, and other workers providing skilled support, nor do they reflect major changes in performance specifications for protective clothing and equipment. The agency acknowledges that current OSHA standards also do not reflect all the major developments in safety and health practices that have already been accepted by the emergency response community and incorporated into E:\FR\FM\22FEP12.SGM 22FEP12 11256 Federal Register / Vol. 88, No. 35 / Wednesday, February 22, 2023 / UA: Reg Flex Agenda industry consensus standards.

The tree care industry previously petitioned the agency for rulemaking and OSHA issued an ANPRM (September 2008). OSHA completed a Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act (SBREFA) panel in May 2020, collecting information from affected small entities on a potential standard, including the scope of the standard, effective work practices, and arboricultural specific uses of equipment to guide OSHA in developing a rule that would best address industry safety and health concerns.

AGENCY: Office of the Secretary, Labor.

ACTION: Semiannual Regulatory Agenda.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The internet has become the means for disseminating the 
entirety of the Department of Labor's semiannual regulatory agenda. 
However, the Regulatory Flexibility Act requires publication of a 
regulatory flexibility agenda in the Federal Register. This Federal 
Register Notice contains the regulatory flexibility agenda.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Albert T. Herrera, Director, Office of 
Regulatory and Programmatic Policy, Office of the Assistant Secretary 
for Policy, U.S. Department of Labor, 200 Constitution Avenue NW, Room 
S-2312, Washington, DC 20210; (202) 693-5959.

    Note:  Information pertaining to a specific regulation can be 
obtained from the agency contact listed for that particular 
regulation.


SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Executive Order 12866 requires the 
semiannual publication of an agenda of regulations that contains a 
listing of all the regulations the Department of Labor expects to have 
under active consideration for promulgation, proposal, or review during 
the coming one-year period. The entirety of the Department's semiannual 
agenda is available online at www.reginfo.gov.
    The Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 602) requires DOL to 
publish in the Federal Register a regulatory flexibility agenda. The 
Department's Regulatory Flexibility Agenda, published with this notice, 
includes only those rules on its semiannual agenda that are likely to 
have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small 
entities; and those rules identified for periodic review in keeping 
with the requirements of section 610 of the Regulatory Flexibility Act. 
Thus, the regulatory flexibility agenda is a subset of the Department's 
semiannual regulatory agenda. The Department's Regulatory Flexibility 
Agenda does not include section 610 items at this time.
    All interested members of the public are invited and encouraged to 
let departmental officials know how our regulatory efforts can be 
improved and are invited to participate in and comment on the review or 
development of the regulations listed on the Department's agenda.

Secretary of Labor.

    Abstract: On January 7, 2021, the Department of Labor (Department) 
published a final rule on independent contractor status under the Fair 
Labor Standards Act (FLSA). See 86 FR 1168 (2021 IC Rule). The 
Department subsequently published final rules to delay and withdraw the 
2021 IC Rule on March 4, 2021, and May 6, 2021, respectively. See 86 FR 
12535 (Delay Rule); 86 FR 24303 (Withdrawal Rule). On March 14, 2022, a 
district court in the Eastern District of Texas vacated the 
Department's Delay and Withdrawal Rules, concluding that the 2021 IC 
Rule became effective as of March 8, 2021.The Department continues to 
believe that the 2021 IC Rule does not fully comport with the FLSA's 
text and purpose as interpreted by courts and has proposed to rescind 
the 2021 IC rule and set forth an analysis for determining employee or 
independent contractor status under the Act that is more consistent 
with existing judicial precedent and the Department's longstanding 
guidance prior to the 2021 IC rule.

of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) would update the process by which 
employers seeking to employ H-2B workers would obtain temporary 
certification from DOL for use in petitioning DHS to employ a 
nonimmigrant worker in H-2B status. The updates would also establish

temporary non-agricultural workers for certain itinerant job 
opportunities, including entertainers, tree planting, and utility 
vegetation management.

364.  Improving Protections for Workers in Temporary 
Agricultural Employment in the United States [1205-AC12]

    Legal Authority: 8 U.S.C. 1188, 29 U.S.C. 49 et seq.
    Abstract: The Department of Labor's (DOL) Employment and Training 
Administration and Wage and Hour Division propose to amend regulations 
to improve working conditions and protections for workers engaged in 
temporary agricultural employment in the United States; and strengthen 
protections in the recruitment, job order clearance, and oversight 
processes. The proposed regulatory changes involve the Employment 
Service and the H-2A non-immigrant visa program at 29 CFR part 501 and 
20 CFR parts 651, 653, 654, 655, and 658.
    The Department has identified a need to strengthen and clarify 
protections for all temporary agricultural workers, including U.S. 
workers and workers employed through the H-2A temporary agricultural 
program. The H-2A temporary agricultural program allows agricultural 
employers to perform agricultural labor or services of a temporary or 
seasonal nature so long as there are not sufficient able, willing, and 
qualified U.S. workers to perform the work and the employment of H-2A 
workers does not adversely affect the wages and working conditions of 
similarly employed workers in the United States. The use of the H-2A 
program has grown substantially in recent years and the Department is 
committed to protecting agricultural workers in light of their 
significant vulnerabilities.

    Abstract: This rulemaking implements Executive Order 13990 of 
January 20, 2021, titled Protecting Public Health and the Environment 
and Restoring Science to Tackle the Climate Crisis, and Executive Order 
14030 of May 20, 2021, titled Climate-Related Financial Risks. Among 
other things, these Executive Orders direct Federal agencies to review 
existing regulations promulgated, issued, or adopted between January 
20, 2017, and January 20, 2021, that are or may be inconsistent with, 
or present obstacles to, the policies set forth in section 1 of the 
orders 86 FR 7037 (January 25, 2021); 86 FR 27967 (May 25, 2021). Such 
policies include the promotion and protection of public health and the 
environment and ensuring that agency activities are guided by the best 
science and protected by processes that ensure the integrity of Federal 
decision-making, and to advance consistent, clear, intelligible, 
comparable, and accurate disclosure of climate-related financial risk, 
including both physical and transition risks. Section 2 of Executive 
Order 13990 provides that for any such regulatory actions identified by 
the agencies, the heads of agencies shall, as appropriate and 
consistent with applicable law, consider suspending, revising, or 
rescinding the agency actions. Section 4

[[Page 11255]]

of Executive Order 14030 directs the Secretary of Labor to consider 
publishing, by September 2021, for notice and comment a proposed rule 
to suspend, revise, or rescind ``Financial Factors in Selecting Plan 
Investments,'' 85 FR 72846 (November 13, 2020), and ``Fiduciary Duties

371. Communication Tower Safety [1218-AC90]

    Legal Authority: 29 U.S.C. 655(b); 5 U.S.C. 609
    Abstract: While the number of employees engaged in the 
communication tower industry remains small, the fatality rate is very 
high. Over the past 20 years, this industry has experienced an average 
fatality rate that greatly exceeds that of the construction industry. 
Due to recent FCC spectrum auctions and innovations in cellular 
technology, there will be a very high level of construction activity 
taking place on communication towers over the next few years. A similar 
increase in the number of construction projects needed to support 
cellular phone coverage triggered a spike in fatality and injury rates 
years ago. Based on information collected from an April 2015 Request 
for Information (RFI), OSHA concluded that current OSHA requirements 
such as those for fall protection and personnel hoisting, may not 
adequately cover all hazards of communication tower construction and 
maintenance activities. OSHA will use information collected from a 
Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act (SBREFA) panel to 
identify effective work practices and advances in engineering 
technology that would best address industry safety and health concerns. 
The Panel carefully considered the issue of the expansion of the rule 
beyond just communication towers. OSHA will continue to consider also 
covering structures that have telecommunications equipment on or 
attached to them (e.g., buildings, rooftops, water towers, billboards).

372. Emergency Response [1218-AC91]

    Legal Authority: 29 U.S.C. 655(b); 29 U.S.C. 657; 5 U.S.C. 609
    Abstract: OSHA currently regulates aspects of emergency response 
and preparedness; some of these standards were promulgated decades ago, 
and none were designed as comprehensive emergency response standards. 
Consequently, they do not address the full range of hazards or concerns 
currently facing emergency responders, and other workers providing 
skilled support, nor do they reflect major changes in performance 
specifications for protective clothing and equipment. The agency 
acknowledges that current OSHA standards also do not reflect all the 
major developments in safety and health practices that have already 
been accepted by the emergency response community and incorporated into

industry consensus standards. OSHA is considering updating these 
standards with information gathered through an RFI and public meetings.

373. Tree Care Standard [1218-AD04]

    Legal Authority: Not Yet Determined
    Abstract: There is no OSHA standard for tree care operations; the 
agency currently applies a patchwork of standards to address the 
serious hazards in this industry. The tree care industry previously 
petitioned the agency for rulemaking and OSHA issued an ANPRM 
(September 2008). OSHA completed a Small Business Regulatory 
Enforcement Fairness Act (SBREFA) panel in May 2020, collecting 
information from affected small entities on a potential standard, 
including the scope of the standard, effective work practices, and 
arboricultural specific uses of equipment to guide OSHA in developing a 
rule that would best address industry safety and health concerns. Tree 
care continues to be a high-hazard industry.
