SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The 

Powered Industrial Trucks Standard 

contains several information collection 

requirements addressing truck design, 

construction, and modification, as well 

as certification of training and 

evaluation for truck operators. See 29 

CFR 1910.178. These information 

collections are 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 if the 

collection of information does not 

display a 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 1218–0242. The current 

OMB approval is scheduled to expire on 

August 31, 2011; however, it should be 

noted that existing information 

collection requirements 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 April 20, 2011 (76 FR 

22154). 

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 

consideration, comments should 

reference OMB Control Number 1218– 

0242. 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.

The United States Department of

Reebok Human Rights Award in 1994. He 

was tragically killed a year later at the age of 

13 in his native Pakistan. 

In view of inspiring and motivating 

those who are working to eliminate the 

worst forms of child labor, the award’s 

two major goals are to: 

a. Honor and give public recognition to a 

recipient demonstrating extraordinary efforts 

to combat the worst forms of child labor 

internationally, and who shares qualities 

demonstrated by Iqbal Masih including 

leadership, courage, integrity, and a search to 

end the labor exploitation of children, and, 

b. Raise awareness about the worst forms 

of child labor internationally. 

5. Eligibility and Selection Criteria: 

A. The nominees may include 

individuals, companies, organizations, 

or national governments and

Department of Labor’s Iqbal Masih 

Award for the Elimination of Child 

Labor will be judged by the following 

selection criteria: 

1. Implemented extraordinary efforts that 

contribute towards the reduction of the worst 

forms of child labor. 

2. Generated positive international 

attention in support of efforts to reduce the 

worst forms of child labor. 

3. Inspired others, including young 

persons, to become champions against the 

worst forms of child labor following the spirit 

and example of Iqbal Masih. 

4. Fomented constructive change regarding 

the labor exploitation of children under great 

odds or at great personal cost. 

6. Nomination Submission

3. Name, title, street address, 

telephone number and e-mail address of 

the person or organization submitting

E. Timing and Acceptable Methods of 

Submission of Nominations: 

Nomination packages must be 

submitted to The United States 

Department of Labor’s Iqbal Masih 

Award for the Elimination of Child 

Labor, Office of Child Labor, Forced 

Labor and Human Trafficking, Room 

S–5317, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW., 

Washington, DC 20210 by September 

30, 2011. Any application received after 

4:45 p.m. EDT on September 30, 2011 

will not be considered unless it was 

received before the award is made and: 

1. It was sent by registered or certified 

mail no later than September 15, 2011. 

2. It is determined by the Government 

that the late receipt was due solely to 

mishandling by the Government after 

receipt at the U.S. Department of Labor 

at the address indicated; or 

3. It was sent by U.S. Postal Service 

Express Mail Next Day Service—Post 

Office to Addressee, not later than 

5 p.m. EDT at the place of mailing, 

September 29, 2011. 

The only acceptable evidence to 

establish the date of mailing of a late 

application sent by registered or 

certified mail is the U.S. Postal Service 

postmark on the envelope or wrapper 

and on the original receipt from the U.S. 

Postal Service. If the postmark is not 

legible, an application received after the 

above closing time and date will be 

processed as if mailed late. ‘‘Postmark’’ 

means a printed, stamped, or otherwise 

placed impression (not a postage meter 

machine impression) that is readily 

identifiable without further action as 

having been applied and affixed by an 

employee of the U.S. Postal Service on 

the date of mailing. Therefore, 

applicants should request that the postal 

clerk place a legible hand cancellation 

‘‘bull’s-eye’’ postmark on both the 

receipt and the envelope or wrapper. 

The only acceptable evidence to 

establish the time of receipt at the U.S. 

Department of Labor is the date/time 

stamp of the ILAB/OCFT on the 

application wrapper or other 

documentary evidence or receipt 

maintained by that office. Applications 

sent by other delivery services, such as 

Federal Express, UPS, e-mail (to 

cook.katherine@dol.gov), etc., will also 

be accepted; however, the applicant 

bears the responsibility of timely 

submission.
