Proposed Renewal of the Approval of 

Information Collection Requirements; 

Comment Request 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: The Department of Labor 

(DOL), 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 

(PRA). The 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 Office 

of Federal Contract Compliance 

Programs (OFCCP) is soliciting 

comments concerning its proposal to 

obtain approval from the Office of 

Management and Budget (OMB) to 

renew the information collection that 

implements standard procedures for 

supply and service contractors seeking 

approval to develop affirmative action 

programs based on functional or 

business units. A copy of the proposed 

information collection request can be 

obtained by contacting the office listed 

below in the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION

CONTACT section of this Notice or by 

accessing it at www.regulations.gov. 

DATES: Written comments must be 

submitted to the office listed in the 

addresses section below on or before 

November 13, 2018. 

ADDRESSES: You may submit comments 

by any of the following methods:

eRulemaking portal at

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background: OFCCP administers 

and enforces the three 

nondiscrimination and equal 

employment opportunity laws listed 

below. 

• Executive Order 11246, as amended 

(E.O. 11246) 

• Section 503 of the Rehabilitation Act 

of 1973, as amended (Section 503) 

• Vietnam Era Veterans’ Readjustment 

Assistance Act of 1974, as amended 

(VEVRAA) 

These authorities prohibit 

employment discrimination and require 

affirmative action to ensure that equal 

employment opportunities are available 

regardless of race, color, religion, sex, 

sexual orientation, gender identity, 

national origin, disability, or status as a 

protected veteran by federal contractors. 

Additionally, federal contractors and 

subcontractors are prohibited from, 

discriminating against applicants and 

employees for asking about, discussing, 

or sharing information about their pay 

or the pay of their co-workers. E.O. 

11246 applies to federal contractors and 

subcontractors and to federally assisted 

construction contractors holding a 

Government contract in excess of 

$10,000, or Government contracts which 

have, or can reasonably be expected to 

have, an aggregate total value exceeding 

$10,000 in a 12-month period. E.O. 

11246 also applies to government bills 

of lading, depositories of federal funds 

in any amount, and to financial 

institutions that are issuing and paying 

agents for U.S. Savings Bonds. Section 

503 prohibits employment 

discrimination against applicants and

45978 Federal Register / Vol. 83, No. 176 / Tuesday, September 11, 2018 / Notices 

employees because of physical or 

mental disability and requires 

affirmative action to ensure that persons 

are treated without regard to disability. 

Section 503 applies to federal 

contractors and subcontractors with 

contracts in excess of $15,000. VEVRAA 

prohibits employment discrimination 

against protected veterans and requires 

affirmative action to ensure that persons 

are treated without regard to their status 

as a protected veteran. VEVRAA applies 

to federal contractors and 

subcontractors with contracts of 

$150,000 or more. 

II. Review Focus: OFCCP is 

particularly interested in comments 

which: 

• Evaluate whether the proposed 

collection of information is necessary 

for the compliance and enforcement 

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. 

III. Current Actions: OFCCP seeks 

approval of this information collection 

in order to carry out and enhance its 

responsibilities to enforce the antidiscrimination and affirmative action 

provisions of the three legal authorities 

it administers.

Addendum to the Memorandum of 

Understanding With the Department of 

Energy (August 28, 1992); Oak Ridge, 

Tennessee Properties 

AGENCY: Occupational Safety and Health 

Administration (OSHA), Labor. 

ACTION: Notice. 

SUMMARY: This is a notice of an 

addendum to the interagency 

Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) 

between the U.S. Department of Labor 

(DOL), Occupational Safety and Health 

Administration (OSHA) and the U.S. 

Department of Energy (DOE). The MOU 

establishes specific interagency 

procedures for the transfer of 

occupational safety and health coverage 

for privatized facilities, properties, and 

operations from DOE to OSHA and state 

agencies acting under state plans 

approved by OSHA. 

DATES: The expansion of the scope of 

recognition becomes effective on 

September 11, 2018.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

DOE and OSHA entered into a MOU 

on August 10, 1992, delineating 

regulatory authority over the 

occupational safety and health of 

contractor employees at DOE 

government-owned or leased, 

contractor-operated (GOCO) facilities. In 

general, the MOU recognizes that DOE 

exercises statutory authority under 

section 161(f) of the Atomic Energy Act 

of 1954, as amended, (42 U.S.C. 2201(f)), 

relating to the occupational safety and 

health of private-sector employees at 

these facilities. 

Section 4(b)(1) of the Occupational 

Safety Health Act of 1970 (OSH Act) (29 

U.S.C. 653(b)(1), exempts from OSHA 

authority working conditions with 

respect to which other federal agencies 

have exercised statutory authority to 

prescribe or enforce standards or 

regulations affecting occupational safety 

and health. The 1992 MOU 

acknowledges DOE’s extensive program 

for the regulation of contractor health 

and safety, which requires contractor 

compliance with all OSHA standards as 

well as additional requirements 

prescribed by DOE, and concludes with 

an agreement by the agencies that the 

provisions of the OSH Act will not 

apply to GOCO sites for which DOE has 

exercised authority to regulate 

occupational safety and health under 

the Atomic Energy Act. The 1992 MOU 

has expired. 

In light of DOE’s policy emphasis on 

privatization activities, OSHA and DOE 

entered into a second MOU on July 25, 

2000, that establishes interagency 

procedures to address regulatory 

authority for occupational safety and 

health at specified privatized facilities 

and operations on sites formerly 

controlled by DOE. The July 25, 2000, 

MOU covers facilities and operations on 

lands no longer controlled by DOE, 

which are not conducting activities for 

or on behalf of DOE and where there is 

no likelihood that any employee 

exposure to radiation from DOE sources 

would be 25 millirems per year (mrem/ 

yr) or more. 

II. Notice of Transfer 

In an email dated February 2, 2018, 

DOE requested that OSHA or, as 

appropriate, the Tennessee 

Occupational Safety and Health 

Administration (TOSHA) accept 

occupational safety and health 

regulatory authority over employees at 

the East Tennessee Technology Park in 

Oak Ridge, Tennessee, six parcels of 

land pursuant to the MOU on Safety and 

Health Enforcement at Privatized 

Facilities and Operations dated July 25, 

2000. Other facilities and properties at 

the East Tennessee Technology Park 

were transferred to TOSHA jurisdiction 

under this MOU by Federal Register 

notices 74 FR 120 (January 2, 2009), 74 

FR 39977 (August 10, 2009), 76 FR 

80408 (December 23, 2011) and 79 FR 

29456 (May 22, 2014). 

The six parcels of land, which are 

located at the East Tennessee 

Technology Park in Oak Ridge, 

Tennessee, and were transferred by 

deed to the Community Reuse 

Organization of East Tennessee (CROET) 

are described as follows: 

• Land Parcel ED–11 Consists of five 

tracts of land separated by roadways: 

ED–11A (11.67 acres), ED–11B (2.25 

acres), ED–11C (0.49 acres), ED–11D
