31422 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 129 / Thursday, July 5, 2018 / Notices 

providing access to these records to 

affected workers and their authorized 

representatives. Occupational Safety 

and Health Act of 1970 sections 2(b)(9), 

6, and 8(c) authorize this information 

collection. See 29 U.S.C. 651(b)(9), 655, 

and 657(c). 

This information collection is 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 that does not 

display a valid Control Number. See 5 

CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL 

obtains OMB approval for this 

information collection under Control 

Number 1218–0179. 

The DOL seeks to extend PRA 

authorization for this information 

collection for three (3) more years, 

without any change to existing 

requirements. The DOL notes that 

existing information collection 

requirements submitted to the OMB 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review. For 

additional substantive information 

about this ICR, see the related notice 

published in the Federal Register on 

March 19, 2018 (83 FR 12032). 

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 thirty (30) days of 

publication of this notice in the Federal 

Register. In order to help ensure 

appropriate consideration, comments 

should mention OMB Control Number 

1218–0179. 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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks to extend PRA authority for the 

Slings Standard information collection 

requirements codified in regulations 29 

CFR 1910.184. The Standard specifies 

several information collection 

requirements, depending on the type of 

sling. The purpose of each requirement 

is to prevent workers from using 

defective or deteriorated slings, thereby 

reducing the risk of death or serious 

injury caused by sling failure during 

material handling. Information on the 

identification tags, markings, and 

codings assists the employer in 

determining whether the sling can be 

used for the lifting task. Sling 

inspections enable early detection of 

faulty slings. Inspection and repair 

records provide the employer with 

information about when the last 

inspection was done and about the type 

of repairs made. This information 

provides some assurance about the 

condition of the slings. These records 

also provide the most efficient means 

for an OSHA compliance officer to 

determine whether an Occupational 

Safety and Health Act (OSH Act) 

covered employer is complying with the 

Standard. Proof-testing certificates give 

employers, workers, and OSHA 

compliance officers assurance that the 

slings are safe to use. The certificates 

also provide the compliance officers 

with an efficient means to assess 

employer compliance with the 

Standard. OSH Act sections 2(b)(9), 6, 

and 8(c) authorize this information 

collection. See 651(b)(9), 655, and 

657(c). 

This information collection is subject

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks to extend PRA authority for the 

Vehicle-Mounted Elevating and Rotating 

Work Platforms Standard information 

collection. This collection requires an 

Occupational Safety and Health Act of 

1970 (OSHA Act) covered employer, 

subject to the Standard, to obtain a 

written certification of any field 

modification made to aerial lifts. Such 

a certification must be prepared in 

writing either by the manufacturer of 

the aerial lift or by a nationally 

recognized laboratory. This certification 

is to attest to the safety of the lift after 

modifications. OSH Act sections 2(b)(9), 

6, and 8(c) authorize this information 

collection. See 29 U.S.C. 651(b)(9), 655, 

and 657(c). 

This information collection is subject 

to the PRA. A Federal agency generally 

cannot conduct or sponsor a collection
