This notice is a summary of petitions for modification submitted to the Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) by the parties listed below.

The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a preclearance consultation program to provide the general public and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA95). This program helps to ensure that requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden (time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are clearly understood, and the impact of collection requirements on respondents can be properly assessed. Currently, the Office of Workers' Compensation Programs is soliciting comments concerning the proposed collection: Attorney Fee Approval Request (LS-4), Application for Special Fund Relief (LS-5), Commutation Application (LS-6), Request for Intervention (LS-7), Settlement Approval Request 8(i) (LS-8) and Stipulation Approval Request (LS-9). A copy of the proposed information collection request can be obtained by contacting the office listed below in the address section of this Notice.
