SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

A. Purpose

    The FAR clause at 52.236-13, Accident Prevention, requires Federal 
construction contractors to keep records of accidents incident to work 
performed under the contract that result in death, traumatic injury, 
occupational disease or damage to property, materials, supplies or 
equipment. Records of personal inquiries are required by the Department 
of Labor's (DOL) Occupational Safety and Health Administration 
regulations (OSHA). The records maintained by the contractor are used 
to evaluate compliance and may be used in workmen's compensation cases. 
The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) requires records of damage to 
property, materials, supplies or equipment to provide background 
information when claims are brought against the Government.
    If the contract involves work of a long duration, or hazardous 
nature, the contracting officer shall insert the clause with its 
alternate that requires the contractor to submit a written proposed 
plan for implementing the clause. The plan shall include an analysis of 
the significant hazards to life, limb, and property inherent in 
performing the contract and a plan for controlling the hazards. The 
Accident Prevention Plan (APP) is analyzed by the contracting officer 
along with the agency safety representatives to determine if the 
proposed plan will meet the requirements of safety regulations and 
applicable statutes.

B. Annual Reporting Burden

    Respondents: 215.
    Responses per Respondent: 1.
    Annual Responses: 215.
    Hours per Response: 22.
    Total Burden Hours: 4,730.

C. Public Comments

    Public comments are particularly invited on: Whether this 
collection of information is necessary; whether it will have practical 
utility; whether our estimate of the public burden of this collection 
of information is accurate, and based on valid assumptions and 
methodology; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and ways in which we can minimize the 
burden of the collection of information on those who are to respond, 
through the use of appropriate technological collection techniques or 
other forms of information technology.
