Federal Register / Vol. 85, No. 247 / Wednesday, December 23, 2020 / Notices 84009 

OSHA Challenge is designed to reach 

and guide employers and companies in 

all major industry groups who are 

strongly committed to improving their 

safety and health management programs 

and possibly pursuing recognition in the 

VPP. The Challenge Administrators 

application is used to: (1) Conduct a 

preliminary analysis of the applicant’s 

knowledge of safety and health 

management programs; and (2) make a 

determination regarding the applicant’s 

qualifications to become a Challenge 

Administrator. Once a Challenge 

Administrator is approved, the 

Administrator will review each 

challenge candidate’s application/ 

annual submissions to ensure that all 

necessary information is provided, prior 

to forwarding to OSHA’s National Office 

for acceptance and analysis. 

II. Special Issues for Comment 

OSHA has a particular interest in 

comments on the following issues: 

• Whether the information collection 

requirements are necessary for the 

proper performance of the agency’s 

functions, including whether the 

information is useful; 

• The accuracy of the agency’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 collection 

and transmission techniques. 

III. Proposed Actions 

OSHA is requesting an adjustment 

decrease of 363 burden hours from 

90,863 to 90,500 hours. The decrease is 

primarily due to the lack of Challenge 

participation, and lack of training of 

new SGE applicants and re-approval 

training of existing SGEs due to the 

negative impact of the COVID–19 

imposed on all OSHA Cooperative 

Programs. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection.

Information. 

OMB Control Number: 1218–0239.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The DOL, 

as part of continuing efforts to reduce 

paperwork and respondent burden, 

conducts a pre-clearance consultation 

program to provide the general public 

and Federal agencies an opportunity to 

comment on proposed and/or 

continuing collections of information 

before submitting them to the OMB for 

final approval. This program helps to 

ensure 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 can be properly 

assessed. 

The Black Lung Benefits Act (30 

U.S.C. 901 et. seq.) and its 

implementing regulations necessitate 

this information collection. The OWCP– 

1 form is executed by the self-insurer 

who agrees to abide by the Department’s 

rules and authorizes the Secretary, in 

the event of default, to file suit to secure 

payment from a bond underwriter or, in 

the case of a Federal Reserve account, to 

sell the securities for the same purpose. 

This information collection is currently 

approved for use through April 30, 

2021. 30 U.S.C. 933 and 20 CFR 726.110 

authorize this information collection. 

This information collection is subject 

to the PRA. A Federal agency generally 

cannot conduct or sponsor a collection 

of information, and the public is 

generally not required to respond to an 

information collection, unless the OMB 

under the PRA approves it and displays 

a currently valid OMB Control Number. 

In addition, notwithstanding any other 

provisions of law, no person shall 

generally be subject to penalty for 

failing to comply with a collection of 

information that does not display a 

valid Control Number. See 5 CFR 

1320.5(a) and 1320.6. 

Interested parties are encouraged to 

provide comments to the contact shown 

in the ADDRESSES section. Written 

comments will receive consideration, 

and summarized and included in the 

request for OMB approval of the final 

ICR. In order to help ensure appropriate 

consideration, comments should 

mention 1240–0039. 

Submitted comments will also be a 

matter of public record for this ICR and 

posted on the internet, without 

redaction. The DOL encourages 

commenters not to include personally 

identifiable information, confidential 

business data, or other sensitive 

statements/information in any 

comments. 

The DOL is particularly interested in 

comments that: 

• Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

functions of the agency, including 

whether the information will have 

practical utility. 

• Evaluate the accuracy of the 

agency’s estimate of the burden of the 

proposed collection of information, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used. 

• Enhance the quality, utility, and 

clarity of the information to be 

collected; and 

• Minimize the burden of the 

collection of information on those who 

are to respond, including through the 

use of appropriate automated, 

electronic, mechanical, or other 

technological collection techniques or 

other forms of information technology, 

e.g., permitting electronic submission of 

responses.
