Federal Register / Vol. 73, No. 188 / Friday, September 26, 2008 / Notices 55871 

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 OSH 

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). 

The information collection 

requirements specified in the 13 

Carcinogens Standard protect 

employees from the adverse health 

effects that may result from their 

exposure to the 13 Carcinogens. The 

following is a brief description of the 

collection of information requirements 

contained in the 13 Carcinogens 

Standard: establishing and 

implementing a medical surveillance 

program for employees assigned to enter 

regulated areas, informing employees of 

their medical examination results and 

providing them with access to their 

medical records. Further, employers 

must also retain employee medical 

records for specified time periods and 

provide these records to the National 

Institute for Occupational Safety and 

Health (NIOSH) under certain 

circumstances. 

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 collection of 

information requirements contained in 

the 13 Carcinogens Standard (29 CFR 

1910.1003). The Agency is requesting to 

reduce its current burden hour estimate 

associated with the Standard from 1,657 

hours to 1,604 hours for a total 

reduction of ¥53 hours. The reduction 

is primarily the result of decreasing both 

the number of establishments (from 97 

to 93 establishments) and the number of 

exposed employees (from 663 to 643). 

The Agency will include this summary 

in its request to OMB to extend the 

approval of these collection of 

information requirements. 

Type of Review: Extension of a 

currently approved collection. 

Title: 13 Carcinogens Standard (29 

CFR 1910.1003). 

OMB Number: 1218–0085. 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofits; Federal Government; State, 

Local or Tribal Government. 

Number of Respondents: 93. 

Total Responses: 2,119. 

Frequency: On occasion. 

Estimated Time per Response: Time 

per response ranges from approximately 

5 minutes (for employers to maintain 

records) to 2 hours (for records access 

and transfer). 

Total Burden Hours: 1,604. 

Estimated Cost (Operation and 

Maintenance): $88,816.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background 

The Department of Labor, as part of its 

continuing efforts 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 OSH 

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). 

The information collection requirements 

in the Inorganic Arsenic Standard 

provide protection for employees from 

the adverse health effects associated 

with exposure to inorganic arsenic. The 

Inorganic Arsenic Standard requires 

employers to: Monitor employees’ 

exposure to inorganic arsenic; monitor 

employee health; develop and maintain 

employee exposure monitoring and 

medical records; establish and 

implement written compliance 

programs; and provide employees with 

information about their exposures and 

health effects of exposure to inorganic 

arsenic. 

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 

Inorganic Arsenic Standard (29 CFR 

1910.1018). OSHA is proposing to 

decrease its current burden hour 

estimate of 4,861 to 385, a total decrease 

of ¥4,476 hours. The Agency reduced 

the number of employers covered by the 

standard from 42 employers to 3 

employers as a result of a significant 

decline in arsenic consumption in the 

United States. 

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: Standard on Inorganic Arsenic 

(29 CFR 1910.1018). 

OMB Number: 1218–0104. 

Affected Public: Business or other forprofits; Federal Government; State, 

Local, or Tribal Government. 

Number of Respondents: 3. 

Frequency of Response: On occasion. 

Average Time per Response: Time per 

response ranges from 5 minutes to 

maintain records to 1.67 hours to 

complete a medical examination. 

Estimated Total Burden Hours: 385. 

Estimated Cost (Operation and 

Maintenance): $31,165.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

The U.S. Nuclear Regulatory 

Commission (NRC) is considering the 

issuance of a license renewal to 

Byproduct Materials License No. 45– 

03499–08. This license is held by The 

College of William and Mary (the 

Licensee) in Williamsburg, Virginia. As 

part of its license renewal, the Licensee 

has requested an exemption from the 

requirement in 10 CFR 30.32(g) to list 

sealed sources by their manufacturer 

and model number as registered under 

the provisions of 10 CFR 32.210. The 

Licensee requested this exemption in a 

letter dated October 31, 2005. The NRC 

has prepared an Environmental 

Assessment (EA) in support of this 

proposed action in accordance with the 

requirements of Title 10, Code of 

Federal Regulations (CFR), Part 51 (10 

CFR Part 51). Based on the EA, the NRC 

has concluded that a Finding of No 

Significant Impact (FONSI) is 

appropriate with respect to the 

proposed action. The license renewal, 

including the approval of the exemption 

request, will be issued to the Licensee 

following the publication of this FONSI 

and EA in the Federal Register. 

II. Environmental Assessment 

Identification of Proposed Action 

The proposed action would renew 

License No. 45–03499–08, including 

approval of the Licensee’s request for 

exemption submitted on October 31, 

2005. License No. 45–03499–08 was 

issued on September 14, 1990, pursuant 

to 10 CFR Parts 30 and 70, and has been 

amended periodically since that time. 

This license authorized the Licensee for 

laboratory research, calibration, and 

teaching and training of students. It also 

authorized the possession of neutron 

sources containing plutonium for 

storage incident to disposal. 

On June 29, 2005, the Licensee 

submitted its renewal application for 

License No. 45–03499–08. In a letter 

dated October 31, 2005, submitted in 

response to an inquiry from the NRC, 

the Licensee requested an exemption 

from the requirement in 10 CFR 30.32(g) 

to list sealed sources by manufacturer 

and model number as registered under 

the provisions of 10 CFR 32.210. In 

requesting this exemption, the Licensee 

states that most of its source inventory 

consists of sealed sources which have 

long been in their possession and that 

most do not bear a manufacturer’s name 

or model number, and that it therefore 

would be unable to provide that 

information. 

Need for the Proposed Action 

The Licensee possesses neutron 

sources containing plutonium being 

held for disposal, and other sources of 

low activity, less than a millicurie each, 

and has possessed and used these 

sources for many years without 

incident. This exemption is needed to 

authorize the Licensee to continue to 

possess these sources. 

Technical Analysis of the Proposed 

Action 

10 CFR 30.11(a) states that the 

Commission may grant such exemptions 

from the requirements of the regulations 

as it determines are authorized by law 

and will not endanger life or property or 

the common defense and security and 

are otherwise in the public interest. The 

NRC staff has analyzed the Licensee’s 

request to be authorized to receive and 

take possession of sealed sources and 

devices which have not been registered 

with the NRC under 10 CFR 32.210 or 

with an Agreement State. The NRC staff 

considered that the Licensee is qualified 

by sufficient training and experience 

and has sufficient facilities and 

equipment to handle these sources and
