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 30 

CFR Sections 75.350, 75.351, 75.352 and 

75.371. 

DATES: Submit comments on or before 

May 14, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments to, Debbie 

Ferraro, Management Services Division, 

1100 Wilson Boulevard, Room 2171, 

Arlington, VA 22209–3939. Commenters 

are encouraged to send their comments 

on computer disk, or via Internet E-mail 

to Ferraro.Debbie@DOL.GOV. Ms.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The Safety Standards for 

Underground Coal Mine Ventilation—

Belt Entry rule provides safety 

requirements for the use of the conveyor 

belt entry as a ventilation intake to 

course fresh air to working sections and 

areas where mechanized mining 

equipment is being installed or removed 

in mines with three or more entries. 

This rule is a voluntary standard. If the 

mine operators choose to use belt air to 

ventilate working places, the provisions 

will maintain the level of safety in 

underground mines while allowing 

them to implement advances in mining 

atmospheric monitoring technology. 

This rule offers alternate provisions that 

mine operators need to follow if they 

want to use belt air to ventilate working 

sections. 

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 then 

choosing ‘‘Statutory and Regulatory 

Information’’ and ‘‘Federal Register 

Documents.’’

III. Current Actions 

This request for collection of 

information from mine operators that 

elect to use belt air to ventilate working 

sections and areas where mechanized 

equipment is being installed or removed 

will be used by coal mine supervisors 

and employees, State mine inspectors, 

and Federal mine inspectors. The 

information will provide insight into the 

hazardous conditions that have been 

encountered and those that may be 

encountered. The records of inspections 

greatly assist those who use them in 

making decisions that will ultimately 

affect the safety and health of miners 

working in belt air mines. 

Type of Review: Extension. 

Agency: Mine Safety and Health 

Administration.

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 (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 maximum extent feasible 

unnecessary duplication of efforts in 

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

The standard on Additional 

Requirements for Special Dipping and 

Coating Operations, 29 CFR 

1910.126(g)(4)), requires employers to 

post a conspicuous sign near each piece 

of electrostatic detearing equipment that 

notifies employees of the minimum safe 

distance they must maintain between 

goods undergoing electrostatic detearing 

and the electrodes or conductors of the 

equipment used in the process. Doing so 

reduces the likelihood of igniting the 

explosive chemicals used in 

electrostatic detearing operations. 

II. Special Issues for Comment 

OSHA has a particular interest in 

comments on the following issues: 

• Whether the proposed information 

collection requirement is 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 requirement, 

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 

OSHA is requesting that OMB extend 

its approval of the information 

collection requirement contained in the 

Standard on Additional Requirements 

for Special Dipping and Coating 

Operations (Dip Tanks) (29 CFR 

1910.126(g)(4)). The Agency is 

requesting to retain its previous burden 

hour estimate of 1 hour. The Agency 

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 

currently approved information 

collection requirement.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) has received, by 

letter dated October 24, 2006, a license 

renewal application from AREVA NP, 

Inc. (AREVA), requesting renewal of 

License No. SNM–1227 at its Richland 

fuel fabrication facility located in 

Richland, Washington. License No. 

SNM–1227 authorizes the licensee to 

possess and use special nuclear material 

for the manufacture of fuel for nuclear 

power plants. 

The Richland facility has been 

licensed by the Atomic Energy 

Commission and its successor, the NRC, 

to manufacture low-enriched uranium 

fuel for nuclear power plants. The 

license was renewed in 1996 for a 

period of 10 years, expiring on 

November 30, 2006. By applications 

dated October 24 and December 13, 

2006, AREVA requested renewal of their 

license for a period of 40 years. The 

NRC will review the license renewal 

application for compliance with 

applicable sections of regulations in 

Title 10 of the Code of Federal 

Regulations (10 CFR)—Energy, Chapter 

I—Nuclear Regulatory Commission. The 

license renewal application included an 

Environmental Report, which the NRC 

will review and use to prepare an 

environmental assessment to assist in 

the NRC’s determination on the license 

renewal application, as required by 10 

CFR Part 51, Environmental Protection 

Regulations for Domestic Licensing and 

Related Regulatory Functions, and the 

National Environmental Policy Act. 

An NRC administrative review, 

documented in a letter to AREVA dated 

February 7, 2007, (ML070320061) found 

the application acceptable to begin a 

technical review. Because AREVA filed 

the application for renewal not less than 

30 days before the expiration of the date 

stated in the existing license, the 

existing license will not expire until the 

Commission makes a final 

determination on the renewal 

application, in accordance with the 

timely renewal provision of 10 CFR 

70.38(a)(1). If the NRC approves the 

renewal application, the approval will 

be documented in NRC License No. 

SNM–1227. However, before approving 

the proposed renewal, the NRC will 

need to make the findings required by 

the Atomic Energy Act of 1954, as 

amended, and NRC’s regulations. These 

findings will be documented in a Safety 

Evaluation Report and an 

Environmental Assessment and/or an 

Environmental Impact Statement.
