Office of the Secretary July 8, 2014 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The Department of Labor (DOL) is submitting the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) sponsored information collection request (ICR) titled, ``Powered Platforms for Building Maintenance Standard,'' to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) for review and approval for continued use, without change, in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq. Public comments on the ICR are invited.

In compliance with Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, the Washington Headquarters Service, Acquisition Directorate (WHS/AD), announces a proposed public information collection and seeks public comment on the provisions thereof. Comments are invited on: (a) Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, including whether the information shall have practical utility; (b) the accuracy of the agency's estimate of the burden of the proposed information collection; (c) ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (d) ways to minimize the burden of the information collection on respondents, including through the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology.

The Office of the Secretary of Defense proposes to alter a system of records, DHRA 06 DoD, entitled ``Defense Sexual Assault Incident Database,'' in its inventory of record systems subject to the Privacy Act of 1974, as amended. This system will be used to centralize case-level sexual assault data involving a member of the Armed Forces, in a manner consistent with DoD regulations for unrestricted and restricted reporting, including information, if available, about the nature of the assault (e.g., incident date and location, type of offense), the victim, the alleged perpetrator, investigative information, case outcomes in connection with the assault, and other information necessary to fulfill reporting requirements. Records may also be used as a management tool for statistical analysis, tracking, reporting, evaluating program effectiveness and conducting research. The system includes the capability for entering records and interfacing data; generating various level reports and queries; and conducting case and business management.
