Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks to extend PRA authority for the 

Construction Standards on Posting 

Emergency Telephone Numbers and 

Floor Load Limits information 

collection. Regulations 29 CFR 

1926.50(f) requires an Occupational 

Safety and Health Act (OSH Act) 

covered employers engaged in 

construction to post emergency 

telephone numbers at the worksite. If 

the 911 emergency telephone service is 

not available; 29 CFR 250(a)(2) requires 

a subject employer to post the maximum 

safe load limit of a floor located in a 

storage area inside a building or other 

structure, unless the floor is on grade. 

Occupational Safety and Health Act of 

1970, section 2(b)(9) and 6(b)(7) 

authorizes this information collection. 

See 29 U.S.C. 651(b)(9), 655(b)(7). 

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 1218–0093. 

OMB authorization for an ICR cannot 

be for more than three (3) years without 

renewal, and 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 

October 18, 2017 (82 FR 48531). 

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 

1218–0093. 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.

Title of Collection: Construction 

Standards on Posting Emergency

Authority: 44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks to extend PRA authority for the 

Alternative Reporting Methods for 

Apprenticeship and Training Plans and 

Top Hat Plans information collection. 

Section 2520.104–22 provides an 

exemption to the reporting and 

provision of Part 1 of Title I of ERISA 

for employee welfare benefit plans that 

provide exclusively apprenticeship and 

training benefits if the plan 

administrator meets the following 

requirements: (1) Files a notice with the 

Secretary that provides the name of the 

plan, the plan sponsor’s Employer 

Identification Number, the plan 

administrator’s name, and the name and 

location of an office or person from 

whom interested individuals can obtain 

certain info about courses offered by the 

plan; and (2) take steps reasonably 

designed to ensure that the information 

required to be contained in the notice is 

disclosed to employees of employers 

contribution to the plan who may be 

eligible to enroll in any course of study 

sponsored or establish by the plan; (3) 

and make the notice available to 

employees upon request. Under 

2520.104–23, the Department provides 

an alternative method of compliance 

with the reporting and disclosure of 

Title I of ERISA for unfunded or insured 

plan established for a select group of 

management of highly compensated 

employees (i.e., top hat plans). In order 

to satisfy the alternative method of 

compliance, the plan administrator 

must file a statement with the Secretary 

of Labor that includes the name and 

address of the employer, the employer 

EIN, a declaration that the employer 

maintains a plan or plans primarily for 

the purpose of providing deferred 

compensation for a select group of 

management or highly compensated 

employees, and a statement of the 

number of such plans and the 

employees covered by each. Employee 

Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 

authorizes this information collection. 

See 29 U.S.C. 1023. 

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 1210–0153. 

OMB authorization for an ICR cannot 

be for more than three (3) years without 

renewal, and 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
