SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The Department of Labor, as part of its 

continuing effort to reduce paperwork 

and respondent (i.e., employer) burden, 

conducts a preclearance consultation 

program to provide the public with an 

opportunity to comment on proposed 

and continuing information collection 

requirements in accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 

(PRA–95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This 

program ensures that information is in 

the desired format, reporting burden 

(time and costs) is minimal, collection 

instruments are clearly understood, and 

OSHA’s estimate of the information 

collection burden is accurate. The 

Occupational Safety and Health Act of 

1970 (the OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et 

seq.) authorizes information collection 

by employers as necessary or 

appropriate for enforcement of the Act 

or for developing information regarding 

the causes and prevention of 

occupational injuries, illnesses, and 

accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act 

also requires that OSHA obtain such 

information with minimum burden 

upon employers, especially those 

operating small businesses, and to 

reduce to the extent feasible 

unnecessary duplication of efforts in 

obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657). 

The information collection 

requirements specified in the Noise 

Standard protect employees from 

suffering material hearing impairment. 

The information collection requirements 

of the Noise Standard include 

conducting noise monitoring; notifying 

employees when they are exposed at or 

above an 8-hour time-weighted average 

of 85 decibels; providing employees 

with initial and annual audiograms; 

notifying employees of a loss in hearing 

based on comparing audiograms; 

training employees on the effects of 

noise, hearing protectors, and 

audiometric examinations; maintaining 

records of workplace noise exposure 

and employee audiograms; and allowing 

employees, OSHA, and NIOSH access to 

materials and records required by the 

Standard. 

II. Special Issues for Comments 

OSHA has a particular interest in 

comments on the following issues: 

• Whether the proposed information 

collection requirements are necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

Agency’s functions to protect 

employees, including whether the 

information is useful; 

• The accuracy of OSHA’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 

The Agency is requesting a reduction 

in burden hours from 5.18 million to an 

estimated 2.85 million. The reduction is 

a result of reducing the number of 

participating employers and employees 

in manufacturing industries by 25%. 

OSHA will summarize the comments 

submitted in response to this notice, 

and will include this summary in the 

request to OMB. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Title: Noise Standard (29 CFR 

1910.95). 

OMB Number: 1218–0048.
