Proposed Information Collection 

Request Submitted for Public 

Comment and Recommendations; 

Explosive Materials and Blasting Units 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as 

part of its continuing effort to reduce 

paperwork and respondent burden 

conducts a pre-clearance consultation 

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 to ensure that 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 on respondents can be 

properly assessed. 

Currently, the Mine Safety and Health 

Administration (MSHA) is soliciting 

comments concerning the extension of 

the information collection related to the 

30 CFR Sections 57.22606(a); Explosive 

Materials and Blasting Units. 

DATES: Submit comments on or before 

November 27, 2009. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments to U.S. 

Department of Labor, Mine Safety and 

Health Administration, John Rowlett, 

Director, Management Services 

Division, 1100 Wilson Boulevard, Room 

2134, Arlington, VA 22209–3939. 

Commenters are encouraged to send 

their comments on a computer disk, or 

via Internet E-mail to 

Rowlett.John@dol.gov, along with an 

original printed copy. Mr. Rowlett can 

be reached at (202) 693–9827 (voice), or

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

MSHA evaluates and approves 

explosive materials and blasting units as 

permissible for use in the mining 

industry. However, since there are no 

permissible explosives or blasting units 

available that have adequate blasting 

capacity for some metal and nonmetal 

gassy mines, Standard 57.22606(a) was 

promulgated to provide procedures for 

mine operators to follow for the use of 

non-approved explosive materials and 

blasting units. Mine operators must 

notify MSHA in writing, of all nonapprove explosive materials and 

blasting units to be used prior to their 

use. MSHA evaluates the non-approved 

explosive materials and determines if 

they are safe for blasting in a potentially 

gassy environment. 

II. Desired Focus of Comments 

MSHA 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 submissions 

of responses. 

A copy of the proposed information 

collection request can be obtained by 

contacting the employee listed in the 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT

section of this notice, or viewed on the 

Internet by accessing the MSHA home 

page (http://www.msha.gov) and 

selecting ‘‘Rules & Regs’’, and then 

selecting ‘‘FedReg. Doc’’. On the next 

screen, select ‘‘Paperwork Reduction 

Act Supporting Statement’’ to view 

documents supporting the Federal 

Register Notice. 

III. Current Actions 

MSHA uses the information to 

determine that the explosives and 

blasting procedures to be used in a gassy 

underground mine are safe. Federal 

inspectors use the notification to ensure 

that safe procedures are followed.
