60438 Federal Register / Vol. 69, No. 195 / Friday, October 8, 2004 / Notices 

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) [44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)]. This 

program helps ensure that requested 

data is 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.

DATES: Submit comments on or before 

December 7, 2004.

ADDRESSES: Send comments to Melissa 

Stoehr, Acting Chief, Records 

Management Branch, 1100 Wilson

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

When rock bursts occur in an 

underground mine, they pose a serious 

threat to the safety of miners in the area 

affected by the burst. These bursts may 

reasonably be expected to result in the 

entrapment, serious physical harm, or 

death, of miners. Recently developed 

mining technology now permits mine 

operators to monitor rock stresses, 

which helps predict an impending 

burst. These predictions can be used by 

a mine operator to move miners to safer 

locations and to establish areas that 

need relief drilling. Title 30, Section 

57.3461 requires operators of 

underground metal and nonmetal mines 

to develop a rock burst control plan 

within 90 days after a rock burst has 

occurred. 

II. Desired Focus of Comments 

Currently, the Mine Safety and Health 

Administration (MSHA) is soliciting 

comments concerning the proposed 

extension of the information collection 

requirement related to the Rock Burst 

Control Plans. MSHA is particularly 

interested in comments that: 

* Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of MSHA’s 

functions, including whether the 

information has practical utility; 

* Evaluate the accuracy of MSHA’s 

estimate of the burden of the proposed 

collection of information, including the 

validity of the methodology and 

assumptions used; 

* Suggest methods to enhance the 

quality, utility, and clarity of the 

information to be collected; and 

* Address the use of appropriate 

automated, electronic, mechanical, or 

other technological collection 

techniques or other forms of information 

technology, (e.g., permitting electronic 

submissions of responses)to minimize 

the burden of the collection of 

information on those who are to 

respond. 

A copy of the proposed information 

collection request can be obtained by 

contacting the employee listed in the 

ADDRESSES section of this notice or 

viewed on the Internet by accessing the 

MSHA home page (http://

www.msha.gov) and then choosing 

‘‘Statutory and Regulatory Information’’

and ‘‘Federal Register Documents.’’

III. Current Actions 

This information collection needs to 

be extended to protect miners from 

entrapment, serious physical harm, or 

death, in metal and nonmetal 

underground mines with a history of 

rock bursts.

Agency: Mine Safety and Health 

Administration.
