# SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

                    Construction firms engaged in the erection of concrete formwork are required to post warning signs/barriers in accordance with 29 CFR 1926.701(c)(2) to reduce exposure of non-essential employees to the hazards of post-tensioning operations. Paragraphs 29 CFR 1926.702(a)(2), (j)(1), and (j)(2) are general lockout/tagout measures to protect workers from injury associated with equipment and machinery. Paragraph 29 CFR 1926.703(a)(2) requires employers make available drawings or plans for jack                           ( print page 81664)                        layout, formwork, working decks and scaffolds. Paragraph 1926.705(b) requires employers to mark the rated capacity of jacks and lifting units.                

                    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 it is currently approved by the OMB under the PRA 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 if the collection of information does not display a currently valid OMB control number.                     *See*5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this information collection under OMB Control Number 1218-0095. The current OMB approval is scheduled to expire on December 31, 2010; however, it should be noted that information collections submitted to the OMB receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review. For additional information, see the related notice published in the                     **Federal Register**                     on September 30, 2010 (75 FR 60480).                

                    Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown in the                     **ADDRESSES**                     section within 30 days of publication of this notice in the                     **Federal Register.**                     In order to ensure the appropriate consideration, comments should reference OMB Control Number 1218-0095. The OMB 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.
