4129 (this is not a toll-free number) or 

by email at DOL_PRA_PUBLIC@dol.gov. 

Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: WHD staff 

use the Employment Information Form, 

Form WH–3, as a guide for recording 

information complainants (e.g., current 

and former employees, unions, and 

competitor employers) provide about 

alleged violations of agencyadministered labor standards. 

Complainants generally provide the 

information requested on the form to 

WHD staff over the telephone or in 

person. WHD staff use the information 

to determine whether the agency has 

jurisdiction to investigate the alleged 

violation(s). When the WHD schedules 

a complaint-based investigation, the 

agency makes the completed Form WH– 

3 part of the investigation case file. 

Where the information provided does 

not support a potential WHD 

enforcement action, complainants are 

advised and referred to the appropriate 

agency for further assistance. 

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 

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 that does not 

display a valid Control Number. See 5 

CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL 

obtains OMB approval for this 

information collection under Control 

Number 1235–0021. 

OMB authorization for an ICR cannot 

be for more than three (3) years without 

renewal, and the current approval for 

this collection is scheduled to expire on 

August 31, 2013. The DOL seeks to 

extend PRA authorization for this 

information collection for three (3) more 

years, without any change to existing 

requirements. It should also be noted 

that existing information collection 

requirements submitted to the OMB 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review. For 

additional substantive information 

about this ICR, see the related notice 

published in the Federal Register on 

April 17, 2013 (78 FR 22912). 

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 help ensure appropriate

mention OMB Control Number 1235–

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

Section 103(h) of the Federal Mine 

Safety and Health Act of 1977 (Mine 

Act), 30 U.S.C. 813(h), authorizes 

MSHA to collect information necessary 

to carry out its duty in protecting the 

safety and health of miners. 

Compressed-air receivers and other 

unfired pressure vessels must be 

inspected by inspectors holding a valid 

National Board Commission and in 

accordance with the applicable chapters 

of the National Board Inspection Code, 

a Manual for Boiler and Pressure 

Vessels Inspectors, 1979. Safety defects 

found on compressed-air receivers and 

other unfired pressure vessels have 

caused injuries and fatalities in the 

mining industry. 

Records of inspections must be kept 

in accordance with the requirements of 

the National Board Inspection Code and 

the records must be made available to 

the Secretary or an authorized 

representative. 

Fired pressure vessels (boilers) must 

be equipped with water level gauges, 

pressure gauges, automatic pressurerelief valves, blowdown piping and 

other safety devices approved by the 

American Society of Mechanical 

Engineers (ASME) to protect against 

hazards from overpressure, flameouts, 

fuel interruptions and low water level. 

Records of inspection and repairs 

must be retained by the mine operator 

in accordance with the requirements of 

the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel 

Code, 1977, and the National Board 

Inspection Code (progressive records— 

no limit on retention time) and shall be 

made available to the Secretary or an 

authorized representative. 

Operators must inspect equipment, 

machinery, and tools that are to be used 

during a shift for safety defects before 

the equipment is placed in operation. 

Defects affecting safety are required to 

be corrected in a timely manner. In 

instances where the defect makes 

continued operation of the equipment 

hazardous to persons, the equipment 

must be removed from service, tagged to 

identify that it is out of use, and 

repaired before use is resumed. 

Safety defects on self-propelled 

mobile equipment account for many 

injuries and fatalities in the mining 

industry. Inspection of this equipment 

prior to use is required to ensure safe 

operation. The equipment operator is 

required to make a visual and 

operational check of the various primary 

operating systems that affect safety, 

such as brakes, lights, horn, seatbelts, 

tires, steering, back-up alarm, 

windshield, cab safety glass, rear and 

side view mirrors, and other safety and 

health related items. 

Any defects found are required to be 

either corrected immediately, or 

reported to and recorded by the mine 

operator prior to the timely correction. 

A record is not required if the defect is 

corrected immediately, i.e. a defect that 

the operator can fix without a mechanic 

such as a light bulb that needs turned 

tighter. The precise format in which the 

record is kept is left to the discretion of 

the mine operator. Reports of 

uncorrected defects are required to be 

recorded by the mine operator and kept 

at the mine office from the date the 

defects are recorded, until the defects 

are corrected. 

A competent person designated by the 

operator must examine each working 

place at least once each shift for
