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 accordance 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, the collection
instruments are clearly understood, and
OSHA’s estimate of the information
collection burden is accurate. The
Occupational Safety and Health Act of
1970 (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 effort in obtaining
information (29 U.S.C. 657).
The following sections describe who
uses the information collected under
each requirement, as well as how they
E:\FR\FM\28FEN1.SGM
28FEN1
10954
Federal Register / Vol. 90, No. 39 / Friday, February 28, 2025 / Notices
use it. Subpart I specifies several
paperwork requirements which are
described as follows. Section
1915.152(b) requires the employer to
assess work activities to determine
whether there are hazards present, or
likely to be present, the employer must:
(1) select the type of PPE that will
protect the affected workers from the
hazards identified in the occupational
hazard assessment; (2) communicate
PPE selection decisions to the affected
workers; (3) select PPE that properly fits
each affected worker; and (4) maintain
documentation to verify that the
required occupational hazard
assessment has been performed. The
verification must contain the following
information: occupation or trade
assessed, the date(s) of the hazard
assessment, and the name of the person
performing the hazard assessment.
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 to protect workers,
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, and
transmission techniques.

III. Proposed Actions
OSHA is requesting that OMB extend
the approval of the information
collection requirements contained in the
Personal Protective Equipment Standard
for Shipyard Employment. The agency
is requesting an adjustment decrease in
burden from 220 hours to 217 hours, a
difference of 3 hours. This decrease is
due a decrease in the number of affected
establishments covered by the shipyard
standard.
OSHA will summarize the comments
submitted in response to this notice and
will include this summary in the
request to OMB to extend the approval
of the information collection
requirements.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
