SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Form 

OSHA–70 is used by applicants seeking 

accreditation from the OSHA to be able 

to test or examine certain equipment 

and material handling devices as 

required under the OSHA maritime 

regulations, 29 CFR part 1917 (Marine 

Terminals) and 29 CFR part 1918 

(Longshoring). OSHA needs this 

information to accredit companies to 

inspect and provide certification for 

cranes, derricks, and accessory gear 

used in the longshoring, marine 

terminal and shipyard industries. 

Certain types of vessel cargo gear and 

shore-based material handling devices 

used in maritime operations are 

required to have accredited companies 

conduct examinations. For additional 

substantive information about this ICR, 

see the related notice published in the 

Federal Register on October 24, 2023

of information, and the public is

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 OMB Control Number. 

See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. 

DOL seeks PRA authorization for this 

information collection for three (3) 

years. OMB authorization for an ICR 

cannot be for more than three (3) years 

without renewal. The DOL notes that 

information collection requirements 

submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs 

receive a month-to-month extension 

while they undergo review.
