which the worker will use the 

respirator; and administer fit tests for 

workers who will use negative- or 

positive-pressure, tight-fitting 

facepieces. In addition, employers must 

ensure that workers store emergency-use 

respirators in compartments clearly 

marked as containing emergency-use 

respirators. For respirators maintained 

for emergency use, employers must 

label or tag the respirator with a 

certificate stating the date of the 

inspection, the name of the individual 

who did the inspection, the findings of 

the inspection, required remedial 

action, and the identity of the respirator. 

The Standard also requires employers 

to ensure that cylinders used to supply 

breathing air to respirators have a 

certificate of analysis from the supplier 

stating that the breathing air meets the 

requirements for Type 1—Grade D 

breathing air; such certification assures 

employers that the purchased breathing 

air is safe. Compressors used to supply 

breathing air to respirators must have a 

tag containing the most recent change 

date and the signature of the individual 

authorized by the employer to perform 

the change. Employers must maintain 

this tag at the compressor. These tags 

provide assurance that the compressors 

are functioning properly. 

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 

Respiratory Protection Standard (29 CFR 

1910.134). The Agency is requesting an 

adjustment increase in the number of 

burden hours from 6,642,537 to 

7,622,100 hours, a total increase of 

979,563 burden hours. This increase is 

based on updated data showing an 

increase in the number of covered 

establishments. In addition, OSHA is 

requesting an adjustment increase of 

$139,348,226 in operation and 

maintenance costs (from $232,934,143 

to $372,282,369) associated with 

increased estimated costs for employee 

medical exams, fit-testing materials and 

fit-tests. The Agency will summarize the 

comments submitted in response to this 

notice and will include this summary in 

the request to OMB.

currently approved collection. 

Title: Respiratory Protection Standard 

(29 CFR 1910.134). 

OMB Control Number: 1218–0099.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Abstract 

Citizen science and crowdsourcing 

are tools that engage, educate and 

empower the public to apply their 

curiosity and contribute their talents to 

a wide range of scientific and societal 

issues. NASA’s mission is to reach for 

new heights and reveal the unknown so 

that what we do and learn will benefit 

all humankind. NASA uses the vantage 

point of space to achieve with the 

science community and our partners a 

deep scientific understanding of our 

planet, other planets and solar system 

bodies, the interplanetary environment, 

the Sun and its effects on the solar 

system, and the universe beyond. 

Citizen science and crowdsourcing can 

support NASA’s mission and purpose 

by providing new opportunities to 

explore our solar system and our own 

home planet like never before, 

producing critical data that expands our 

knowledge of the universe, and 

advancing our ability to provide societal 

benefit through the synergy of satellite 

and ground based observations. 

II. Methods of Collection 

Citizen science and crowdsourcing 

collections submitted under this generic 

clearance can be stand-alone projects or 

the methods may be incorporated into 

an existing or new project, including, 

but not limited to, projects in the 

following typology: 

• Data gathering projects. These 

projects may include (1) observation, 

characterization and documentation of 

natural phenomena or general 

environmental health observations, 

opinions, or preferences or (2) surveying 

participants or screening environmental 

conditions, including using specialized 

equipment provided by project leaders 

to record and submit data, or submitting 

samples plus descriptors (e.g. of air or 

water) for testing. Data may be collected 

using technologies mentioned above, 

through structured data forms, surveys, 

focus groups or interviews, submitting 

photographs or other media, surveys or 

questionnaires, or providing written 

observations. 

• Classification/problem solving 

projects. Participants’ tasks may 

include: (1) Observation of recorded 

materials provided by project organizers 

(images, video, etc.) through structured 

data submission forms, surveys or 

questionnaires in an online or computer 

program, clicking boxes, highlighting 

parts of text or image, and providing 

comments and/or annotations; (2) 

Classification of images or sounds using 

structured data submission forms or 

clicking boxes in an online or computer 

program; (3) Transcribing information, 

by typing handwritten logs or notes; (4) 

Performing a function meant to generate 

human behavior data; or (5) Problemsolving or manipulation of data. Tasks 

1–5 may be conducted via structured 

actions or instructions or through the 

use of ‘‘human-based computational 

game’’ or ‘‘game with a purpose’’, a 

human-based computational technique 

in which a computational process 

performs its function by presenting 

certain steps to humans in an 

entertaining way.
