Proposed Information Collection 

Request Submitted for Public 

Comment and Recommendations; 

Slope and Shaft Sinking Plans 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as 

part of its continuing effort to reduce 

paperwork and respondent burden 

conducts a preclearance 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. 

DATES: Submit comments on or before 

July 9, 2007. 

ADDRESSES: Send comments to U.S. 

Department of Labor, Mine Safety and 

Health Administration, Debbie Ferraro, 

Management Services Division, 1100 

Wilson Boulevard, Room 2171, 

Arlington, VA 22209–3939. Commenters 

are encouraged to send their comments 

on a computer disk, or via E-mail to

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The standard 30 CFR 77.1900 was 

enacted in 1971 and was amended in 

1982 and again in 1995. The standard 

requires underground coal mine 

operators to develop a prudent 

engineered design plan to develop a 

slope or shaft whenever an operator 

decides to open such a coal mine. The 

plan is required by the standard and is 

to be reviewed and approved by MSHA 

before the actual hazardous work 

begins. 

II. Desired Focus of Comments 

Currently, the Mine Safety and Health 

Administration (MSHA) is soliciting 

comments concerning the proposed 

extension of the information collection 

related to Slope and Shaft Sinking 

Plans. 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 may be viewed on the 

Internet by accessing the MSHA Home 

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

selecting ‘‘Rules and Regs’’ then 

‘‘Paperwork Reduction Act Supporting 

Statements’’, or by contacting the 

employee listed above in the FOR

FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT section of 

this notice for a hard copy. 

III. Current Actions 

The 78 slope or shaft development 

plans that MSHA receives on an annual 

basis, are reviewed to ensure that the 

required work is performed in a safe 

manner, and it protects those miners 

performing the work. Prudent 

engineering design does evolve along 

with improved machinery to perform 

the work, but there has not been any 

revision to the requirements for such a 

plan. Currently, the Mine Safety and 

Health Administration (MSHA) is 

soliciting comments concerning the 

proposed extension of the information 

collection related to Slope and Shaft 

Sinking Plans. 

Type of Review: Extension. 

Agency: Mine Safety and Health 

Administration. 

Title: Slope and Shaft Sinking Plans. 

OMB Number: 1219–0019. 

Recordkeeping: Records are normally 

required to be kept for 3 years. 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofit. 

Cite/Reference/Form/etc: 30 CFR 

77.1900. 

Total Respondents: 65. 

Frequency: On occasion. 

Total Responses: 65. 

Estimated Total Burden Hours: 1,300. 

Total Burden Cost (operating/ 

maintaining): $1,061. 

Comments submitted in response to 

this notice will be summarized and/or 

included in the request for Office of 

Management and Budget approval of the 

information collection request; they will 

also become a matter of public record.
