A. Purpose of Regulatory Action B. Summary of Major Provisions C. Costs and Benefits II. Public Participation III. Statutory Authority IV. Summary of Final Rule V. Regulatory Assessment Requirements

I. Executive Summary A. Purpose of Regulatory Action

The purpose of this direct final rule (DFR) is to make minor technical changes to HHS regulations in 42 CFR part 85a, pertaining to occupational safety and health investigations of places of employment. Amendments to the existing rule include striking references to obsolete government offices or agencies, updating the proper NIOSH office from which to request specific reports of investigations, and correcting outdated terms such as ‘‘motion pictures.’’ Obsolete terms and outdated language in Part 85a were identified during the agency’s retrospective analysis of existing regulations, in accordance with Executive Order 13563. B. Summary of Major Provisions

Amendments are made to 42 CFR 85a.2 (alphabetize definitions and strike definitions of ‘‘NIOSH Regional Office,’’ and ‘‘BOM (Bureau of Mines)’’ and remove reference to ‘‘Public Health Service’’ within the definition of ‘‘NIOSH’’), 85a.4 (clarify that the union at the place of employment must be notified of the investigation, and strike reference to BOM), 85a.5 (replace ‘‘motion pictures or videotapes’’ with ‘‘video recordings’’ and ‘‘Humans Subjects Review Board’’ with ‘‘Institutional Review Board’’), and 85a.8 (replace ‘‘NIOSH Regional Consultant for Occupational Safety and Health’’ with ‘‘NIOSH Education and Information Division.’’ C. Costs and Benefits

Because there are no substantive changes to 42 CFR part 85a, there are no changes made to current practices. Therefore, there are no costs or benefits associated with this rulemaking. II. Public Participation

This DFR is being published because HHS finds that the updates to Part 85a add clarity to the regulation and are non-controversial; HHS does not expect to receive any significant adverse comments on this rulemaking. However, HHS is publishing a companion notice of proposed rulemaking in this issue of the Federal Register, in which the same amendments to Part 85a are proposed. If HHS does not receive any significant adverse comments on this DFR within the specified comment period, we will publish a notice in the Federal Register confirming the effective date of the final rule within 30 days after the close of the public comment period and withdraw the notice of proposed rulemaking. Interested parties may participate in this rulemaking by submitting written views, opinions, recommendations, and data. If significant adverse comments are received, HHS will publish a notice in the Federal Register to withdraw this DFR. A final rule will subsequently be published, which will include the Agency’s response to comments.

Comments received, including attachments and other supporting materials, are part of the public record and subject to public disclosure. Do not include any information in your comment or supporting materials that you do not wish to be disclosed. You may submit comments on any topic related to this DFR. III. Statutory Authority

Subsection 20(b) of the Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Act of 1970 authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services to make inspections and question employers and employees as provided in section 8 of the OSH Act in order to carry out the Secretary’s functions and responsibilities under section 20 [29 U.S.C. 669; 29 U.S.C. 657]. Section 8(g)(2) instructs the Secretary to prescribe such regulations as are deemed necessary to carry out the responsibilities of the agency to conduct inspections of an employer’s establishment. Sections 103 and 501 of the Federal Mine Safety and Health (FMSH) Act of 1977 authorize the Secretary to make inspections and investigations at coal mines in order to conduct research as may be appropriate to improve working conditions [30 U.S.C. 813(a)] and 951, respectively]. IV. Summary of Final Rule

The provisions in Part 85a govern procedures NIOSH follows in conducting safety and health investigations at places of employment. The amendments described below are all non-substantive and will have no practical effect on NIOSH procedures or practices, but are being made in accordance with Executive Order 13563, section 6, which requires that Federal agencies conduct retrospective analyses of existing rules. In conducting the analysis, NIOSH discovered that certain terms and references in part 85a were outdated. Section 85a.1 Applicability

Section 85a.1 states that the provisions in Part 85a pertain to investigations of places of employment conducted by NIOSH pursuant to the statutory authorities noted above. The section also affirms that the provisions in this part do not apply to activities


### 2791 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 11 / Thursday, January 16, 2014 / Rules and Regulations

covered by HHS regulations in 42 CFR part 85. HHS is making no changes to this section.
Section 85a.2 Definitions

Section 85a.2 offers definitions for terms used in this part. HHS is making a number of changes to this section. First, the paragraph designations are removed and the terms are listed alphabetically. Next, the definitions of BOM (Bureau of Mines) and NIOSH Regional Office are stricken from § 85a.2, because BOM is obsolete and because the addresses of the regional offices referenced here are no longer relevant to this rule. The phrase ‘‘Public Health Service’’ is stricken from the definition of ‘‘NIOSH,’’ and the definition of ‘‘FMSH Act,’’ is teased apart from the existing definition of ‘‘OSH Act’’ and is made a stand-alone definition. None of the changes to this section are substantive.
Section 85a.3 Authority for Investigations of Places of Employment

Section 85a.3 establishes procedures by which NIOSH authorized representatives may enter a place of employment for the purpose of conducting investigations under the OSH Act and the FMSH Act. This section also establishes that investigations will be conducted in a reasonable manner. HHS is making a minor change to this section to correct punctuation. Section 85a.4 Procedures for Initiating Investigations of Places of Employment

Section 85a.4 states that the NIOSH authorized representative will contact an official representative of the place of employment prior to a site visit. The NIOSH official will also notify a representative of the appropriate State agency, the local union at the place of employment, the appropriate OSHA Assistant Regional Director, and the appropriate MSHA District Office. HHS is making minor changes to § 85a.4(a)(2) to strike unnecessary language specifying which union official must be notified, thereby clarifying that the union must be notified; a change is also made to § 85a.4(a)(4) to remove reference to the obsolete Bureau of Mines. Section 85a.4(b) is edited to correspond with the change in paragraph (a)(2). One final change is made to § 85a.4(c) to add the term ‘‘or organizations’’ to specify that the investigating NIOSH official will notify the individuals or organizations referenced above. HHS is making no further changes to this section. Section 85a.5 Conduct of Investigations of Places of Employment

Section 85a.5 establishes the procedures NIOSH representatives will follow to conduct a workplace investigation. HHS is amending this section to replace the outdated terms ‘‘motion pictures or videotapes’’ with ‘‘video recordings’’ and ‘‘Human Subjects Review Board’’ with ‘‘Institutional Review Board,’’ and correcting ‘‘contact agreement,’’ which should properly be ‘‘contract agreement’’ in paragraph (b)(2). HHS is making no further changes to this section. Section 85a.6 Provision of Suitable Space for Employee Interviews and Examinations

Section 85a.6 requires that the employer, owner, operator, or agent in charge at the investigated place of employment must provide a suitable space for the NIOSH representative to conduct private interviews. HHS is making no changes to this section.
Section 85a.7 Imminent Dangers

Section 85a.7 authorizes the NIOSH representative to advise the employer, owner, operator, or agent in charge, any employees who appear to be in danger, and any of the individuals or agencies identified in § 85a.4 that an imminent danger exists. HHS is making no changes to this section. Section 85a.8 Reporting of Results of Investigations of Places of Employment

Section 85a.8 states that NIOSH will make specific reports of investigations available to the employer, owner, operator, or agent in charge, as well as to those individuals or agencies identified in § 85a.4. HHS is amending § 85a.8(a)(2) to strike reference to ‘‘NIOSH Regional Consultant for Occupational Safety and Health’’ and replace it with the name of the office that will make specific reports available, the ‘‘NIOSH Education and Information Division.’’ HHS is making no further changes to this section. V. Regulatory Assessment Requirements

A. Executive Order 12866 and Executive Order 13563

Executive Orders 12866 and 13563 direct agencies to assess all costs and benefits of available regulatory alternatives and, if regulation is necessary, to select regulatory approaches that maximize net benefits (including potential economic, environmental, public health and safety effects, distributive impacts, and equity). E.O. 13563 emphasizes the importance of quantifying both costs and benefits, of reducing costs, of harmonizing rules, and of promoting flexibility.

This direct final rule has been determined not to be a ‘‘significant regulatory action’’ under section 3(f) of E.O. 12866. The amendments in this notice alphabetize the definitions section, strike reference to the former Bureau of Mines and NIOSH Regional Office, update where specific reports of investigations may be obtained, and update language used to describe ‘‘motion pictures.’’ Because this DFR is entirely administrative and does not affect the economic impact, cost, or policies of the activities authorized by part 85a, HHS has not prepared an economic analysis and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) has not reviewed this rulemaking. B. Regulatory Flexibility Act

The Regulatory Flexibility Act (RFA), 5 U.S.C. 601 et seq., requires each agency to consider the potential impact of its regulations on small entities including small businesses, smallgovernmental units, and small not-forprofit organizations. Because no substantive changes are being made to 42 CFR part 85a as a result of this action, HHS certifies that this rule has ‘‘no significant economic impact upon a substantial number of small entities’’ within the meaning of the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. 601 et seq. ). C. Paperwork Reduction Act

The Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501 et seq., requires an agency to invite public comment on, and to obtain OMB approval of, any regulation that requires 10 or more people to report information to the agency or to keep certain records. Data collection and recordkeeping requirements for the health investigations of places of employment program receive OMB approval on an as-needed basis. The amendments in this rulemaking do not impact the collection of data. D. Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act

As required by Congress under the Small Business Regulatory Enforcement Fairness Act of 1996 (5 U.S.C. 801 et
seq. ), HHS will report the promulgation of this rule to Congress prior to its effective date. E. Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of
1995

Title II of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act of 1995 (2 U.S.C. 1531 et


### 2792 Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 11 / Thursday, January 16, 2014 / Rules and Regulations

seq. ) directs agencies to assess the effects of Federal regulatory actions on State, local, and Tribal governments, and the private sector ‘‘other than to the extent that such regulations incorporate requirements specifically set forth in law.’’ For purposes of the Unfunded Mandates Reform Act, this direct final rule does not include any Federal mandate that may result in increased annual expenditures in excess of $100 million by State, local or Tribal governments in the aggregate, or by the private sector. For 2013, the inflation adjusted threshold is $150 million.
F. Executive Order 12988 (Civil Justice)

This direct final rule has been drafted and reviewed in accordance with Executive Order 12988, ‘‘Civil Justice Reform,’’ and will not unduly burden the Federal court system. This rule has been reviewed carefully to eliminate drafting errors and ambiguities.
G. Executive Order 13132 (Federalism)

HHS has reviewed this direct final rule in accordance with Executive Order 13132 regarding federalism, and has determined that it does not have ‘‘federalism implications.’’ The rule does not ‘‘have substantial direct effects on the States, on the relationship between the national government and the States, or on the distribution of power and responsibilities among the various levels of government.’’ H. Executive Order 13045 (Protection of Children From Environmental Health Risks and Safety Risks)

In accordance with Executive Order 13045, HHS has evaluated the environmental health and safety effects of this direct final rule on children. HHS has determined that the rule would have no environmental health and safety effect on children.
I. Executive Order 13211 (Actions Concerning Regulations That Significantly Affect Energy Supply, Distribution, or Use)

In accordance with Executive Order 13211, HHS has evaluated the effects of this direct final rule on energy supply, distribution or use, and has determined that the rule will not have a significant adverse effect. J. Plain Writing Act of 2010

Under Public Law 111–274 (October 13, 2010), executive Departments and Agencies are required to use plain language in documents that explain to the public how to comply with a requirement the Federal Government administers or enforces. HHS has attempted to use plain language in promulgating the direct final rule consistent with the Federal Plain Writing Act guidelines. List of Subjects in 42 CFR Part 85a

Archives and records, Employee management relations, Hazardous substances, Health hazards, Health records, Industry, Investigations, Labor, Mine safety and health, Occupational injury, Occupational safety and health, Reporting and recordkeeping requirements, Research, Respiratory diseases, Right of entry, Toxic substances, Unions.

Those individuals and organizations specified in § 85a.4(a)(1), (a)(3), and (a)(4) will be notified prior to the initiation of such a site visit. After the site visit has been initiated, and, as soon as possible thereafter, the NIOSH authorized representatives will contact the organizations specified in § 85a.4(a)(2) concerning the nature and details of the site visit.
