Notice of a Change in Status of an

Extended Benefit (EB) Period for

Alaska

This notice announces a change in

benefit period eligibility under the EB

Program for Alaska.

Summary

The following change has occurred

since the publication of the last notice

regarding the State’s EB status:

• June 2, 2001—Alaska’s 13-week

insured unemployment rate for the

week ending April 28, 2001, fell below

6.0 percent and was less than 120

percent of the average for the

corresponding period for the prior two

years, causing Alaska’s EB period that

began March 4, 2001 to trigger ‘‘off’’

effective June 2, 2001.

Information for Claimants

The duration of benefits payable in

the EB Program, and the terms and

conditions on which they are payable,

are governed by the Federal-State

Extended Unemployment Compensation

Act of 1970, as amended, and the

operating instructions issued to the

States by the U.S. Department of Labor.

In the case of a State ending an EB

period, the State employment security

agency will furnish a written notice to

each individual who is currently filing

a claim for EB of the forthcoming end

of the EB period and its effect on the

individual’s rights to EB (30 CFR

615.13(c)(4)).

Signed at Washington, DC, on May 23,

2001.

Deputy Assistant Secretary of Labor for

Employment and Training.

DEPARTMENT OF LABOR

Administration, Wage and Hour

Division

Minimum Wages for Federal and

Federally Assisted Construction;

General Wage Determination Decisions

General wage determination decisions

of the Secretary of Labor are issued in

accordance with applicable law and are

based on the information obtained by

the Department of Labor from its study

of local wage conditions and data made

available from other sources. They

specify that basic hourly wage rates and

fringe benefits which are determined to

be prevailing for the described classes of

laborers and mechanics employed on

construction projects of a similar

character and in the localities specified

therein.

The determination in these decisions

of prevailing rates and fringe benefits

have been made in accordance with 29

CFR Part 1, by authority of the Secretary

of Labor pursuant to the provisions of

the Davis-Bacon Act of March 3, 1931,

as amended (46 Stat. 1494, as amended,

40 U.S.C. 276a) and of other Federal

statutes referred to in 29 CFR Part 1,

Appendix, as well as such additional

statutes as may from time to time be

enacted containing provisions for the

payment of wages determined to be

prevailing by the Secretary of Labor in

accordance with the Davis-Bacon Act.

The prevailing rates and fringe benefits

determined in these decisions shall, in

accordance with the provisions of the

foregoing statutes, constitute the

minimum wages payable on Federal and

federally assisted construction projects

to laborers and mechanics of the

specified classes engaged on contract

work of the character and in the

localities described therein.

Good cause is hereby found for not

utilizing notice and public comment

procedure thereon prior to the issuance

of these determinations as prescribed in

5 U.S.C. 553 and not providing for delay

in the effective date as prescribed in that

section, because the necessity to issue

current construction industry wage

determinations frequently and in large

volume causes procedures to be

Federal Register / Vol. 66, No. 106 / Friday, June 1, 2001 / Notices 29839

impractical and contrary to the public

interest.

from their date of notice in the Federal

Register, or on the date written notice

is received by the agency, whichever is

earlier. These decisions are to be used

in accordance with the provisions of 29

CFR Parts 1 and 5. Accordingly, the

applicable decision, together with any

modifications issued, must be made a

part of every contract for performance of

the described work within the

geographic area indicated as required by

an applicable Federal prevailing wage

law and 29 CFR Part 5. The wage rates

and fringe benefits, notices of which is

published herein, and which are

contained in the Government Printing

Office (GPO) document entitled

‘‘General Wage Determinations Issued

Under The Davis-Bacon And Related

Acts,’’ shall be the minimum paid by

contractors and subcontractors to

laborers and mechanics.

Any person, organization, or

governmental agency having an interest

in the rates determined as prevailing is

encouraged to submit wage rate and

fringe benefit information for

consideration by the Department.

Further information and selfexplanatory forms for the purpose of

submitting this data may be obtained by

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

The Federal Mine Safety and Health

Act of 1977 (Mine Act), recognizes that

the role of education and training in the

improvement of miner health and safety

is an important element of federal

efforts to make the nation’s mines safer

places in which to work. Section 115(a)

of the Mine Act states that ‘‘each

operator of a coal or other mine shall

have a health and safety program which

shall be approved by the Secretary.’’

Title 30, C.F.R. 48.3 and 48.23

specifically address the requirements for

training plans. The standards are

intended to ensure that miners will be

effectively trained in matters affecting

their health and safety, with the

ultimate goal being the reduction of

frequency and severity of the injuries in

the nation’s mines.

II. Desired Focus of Comments

Currently, the Mine Safety and Health

Administration (MSHA) is soliciting

comments concerning the proposed

extension of the information collection

related to Training Plans. MSHA is

particularly interested in comments

which:

• 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 submissions

of responses.

A copy of the proposed information

collection request may be viewed on the

Internet by accessing the MSHA Home

Page (http://www.msha.gov) and

selecting ‘‘Statutory and Regulatory

Information’’ then ‘‘Paperwork

Reduction Act submission (http://

www.msha.gov/regspwork.htm)’’, or by

contacting the employee listed above in

the FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT.

III. Current Actions

Approved training plans are used to

implement training programs for

training new miners, training newly

employed experienced miners, training

miners for new tasks, annual refresher

training, and hazard training. The plans

are also used by MSHA to ensure that

all miners are receiving the training

necessary to perform their jobs in the

safest manner possible.
