Appendix E 

Table 5—Updated 2009 LLSIL (100%), 

By Family Size 

To use the LLSIL to determine the 

minimum level for establishing selfsufficiency criteria at the State or local 

level, begin by locating the metropolitan 

area or region from Table 1, 2 or 3. Then 

locate the appropriate region or 

metropolitan statistical area and then 

find the 2009 Adjusted LLSIL amount 

for that location. These figures apply to 

a family of four. Locate the 

corresponding number in the family of 

four in the column below. Move left or 

right across that row to the size that 

corresponds to the individual’s family 

unit. That figure is the minimum figure 

States must set for determining whether 

employment leads to self-sufficiency 

under WIA programs.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The Department of Labor, as part of its 

continuing effort to reduce paperwork 

and respondent (i.e., employer) burden, 

conducts a preclearance consultation 

program to provide the public with an 

opportunity to comment on proposed 

and continuing information collection 

requirements in accordance with the 

Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 

U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). This program 

ensures that information is in the 

desired format, reporting burden (time 

and costs) is minimal, collection 

instruments are clearly understood, and 

OSHA’s estimate of the information 

collection burden is accurate. The 

Occupational Safety and Health Act of 

1970 (the OSH Act) (29 U.S.C. 651 et 

seq.) authorizes information collection 

by employers as necessary or 

appropriate for enforcement of the Act 

or for developing information regarding 

the causes and prevention of 

occupational injuries, illnesses, and 

accidents (29 U.S.C. 657). The OSH Act 

also requires that OSHA obtain such 

information with minimum burden 

upon employers, especially those 

operating small businesses, and to 

reduce to the maximum extent feasible 

unnecessary duplication of efforts in 

obtaining information (29 U.S.C. 657). 

In the event an employee is injured 

while operating a mechanical power 

press, 29 CFR 1910.217(g) requires the 

employer to provide information to 

OSHA regarding the accident within 30 

days of the accident. This information 

includes the employer’s and employee’s 

names, workplace address and location, 

injury sustained, task being performed 

when the injury occurred, number of 

operators required for the operation and 

the number of operators provided with 

controls and safeguards, cause of the 

accident, type of clutch, safeguard(s), 

and feeding method(s) used, and means 

used to actuate the press stroke. OSHA’s 

Directorate of Safety Standards 

Programs (currently, the Directorate of 

Standards and Guidance), or the State 

agency administering a plan approved 

by the Assistant Secretary of Labor for 

Occupational Safety and Health, collects 

the information. These reports are a 

source of up-to-date information on 

power press machines. Particularly, this 

information identifies the equipment 

used and conditions associated with 

these injuries. 

II. Special Issues for Comment 

OSHA has a particular interest in 

comments on the following issues: 

• Whether the proposed information 

collection requirements are necessary 

for the proper performance of the 

Agency’s functions, including whether 

the information is useful; 

• The accuracy of OSHA’s estimate of 

the burden (time and costs) of the 

information collection requirements, 

including the validity of the 

methodology and assumptions used; 

• The quality, utility, and clarity of 

the information collected; and 

• Ways to minimize the burden on 

employers who must comply; for 

example, by using automated or other 

technological information collection 

and transmission techniques. 

III. Proposed Actions 

OSHA is requesting that OMB extend 

its approval of the information 

collection requirements contained in the 

Standard on Reports of Injuries to 

Employees Operating Mechanical Power 

Presses (29 CFR 1910.217(g)). OSHA is 

proposing to decrease the existing 

burden hour estimate for the collection 

of information requirement specified by 

the Provision from 16 hours to 13 hours, 

for a total decrease of 3 hours. This 

adjustment is a result of a decline in the 

number of reports received by OSHA 

annually. 

The Agency will summarize the 

comments submitted in response to this 

notice and will include this summary in 

the request to OMB. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Title: Report of Injuries to Employees 

Operating Mechanical Power Presses (29 

CFR 1910.217(g)). 

OMB Number: 1218–0070. 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofits; Not-for-profit organizations; 

Federal Government; State, Local, or 

Tribal Government. 

Number of Respondents: 38. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion. 

Average Time per Response: Varies 

from five minutes (.08 hour) for a 

secretary to prepare the report to send 

to OSHA to 15 minutes (.25 hour) for a 

supervisor to obtain the information and 

prepare the written report. 

Estimated Total Burden Hours: 13. 

Estimated Cost (Operation and 

Maintenance): $0.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Background 

The United States is a Member State 

of the World Intellectual Property 

Organization (WIPO) and an active 

member of the Standing Committee on 

Copyright and Related Rights (SCCR). At 

recent meetings of the SCCR, WIPO 

facilitated discussions on the topic of 

copyright limitations and exceptions, 

including limitations and exceptions for 

‘‘blind, visually impaired and other 

reading-disabled persons.’’ 2 At its next 

meeting (May 25–29, 2009), the SCCR 

will continue to consider this topic, 

among others, and will exchange 

information and experiences in order to 

deepen its collective understanding of 

the issues. As part of the process, the 

SCCR is looking to the copyright 

limitations and exceptions that are 

currently available for the benefit of the 

blind, visually impaired and other 

reading-disabled persons around the 

world, and has invited Member States to 

provide supplementary information 

regarding their national laws and 

experiences. 

In preparation for the meeting, the 

Copyright Office and the USPTO have 

been gathering relevant information. To 

date, the Copyright Office and USPTO 

have participated in a series of informal 

meetings and conference calls 

(primarily with stakeholders from the 

blind community, but also with 

representatives of the library, book 

publishing, software, motion picture, 

and nonprofit sectors) in which 

multiple specific issues have been 

identified and a number of common 

points have emerged. 

On the basis of these preliminary 

discussions, the Copyright Office and 

the USPTO understand that blind and 

other persons with disabilities in the 

United States navigate many complex 

challenges when it comes to accessing 

copyrighted works. Common refrains 

include delays in obtaining accessible 

texts (with timeliness of accessible 

materials a particular problem for 

students at all levels), compatibility 

problems between available formats and 

the hardware devices employed by the 

reader, and inconsistencies in the 

quality and accuracy of the available, 

reformatted works. At the international 

level, the Copyright Office and the 

USPTO were made aware of the existing 

framework through which accessible 

works move across borders (i.e. through 

private agreement and interlibrary
