SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks to extend PRA authority for the 

Delinquent Filer Voluntary Compliance 

Program (DFVC) information collection. 

The DFVC Program is intended to 

encourage, through the assessment of 

reduced civil penalties, delinquent plan 

administrators voluntarily to comply 

with their annual reporting obligations 

under Employee Retirement Income 

Security Act of 1974 (ERISA) Title I. 

The only information collection 

requirement included in the DFVC 

Program is to provide data necessary to 

identify the plan along with the penalty 

payment. ERISA section 502(c)(2) 

authorizes this information collection. 

See U.S.C. 1132(c)(2). 

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 1210–0089. 

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 

May 22, 2017 (82 FR 23303). 

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 

1210–0089. 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: Delinquent Filer

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR 

seeks to extend PRA authority for the 

Mine Accident, Injury, and Illness 

Report and Quarterly Mine Employment 

and Coal Production Report information 

collection. The reporting and 

recordkeeping provisions in regulations 

30 CFR part 50, Notification, 

Investigation, Reports and Records of 

Accidents, Injuries and Illnesses, 

Employment and Coal Production in 

Mines, are essential elements in the 

MSHA’s Congressional mandate to 

reduce work-related injuries and 

illnesses among the nation’s miners. 

Accident, injury, and illness data, when 

correlated with employment and 

production data, provide information 

that allows the MSHA to improve its 

safety and health enforcement programs, 

focus its education and training efforts, 

and establish priorities for its technical 

assistance activities in mine safety and 

health. Maintaining a current database 

allows the MSHA to identify and direct 

increased attention to those mines, 

industry segments, and geographical 

areas where hazardous trends are 

developing. This could not be done 

effectively using historical data. The 

information collected under part 50 is 

the most comprehensive and reliable 

occupational data available concerning 

the mining industry. The Federal Mine 

Safety and Health Act of 1977 sections 

101(a) and 103(h) authorize this 

information collection. See 30 U.S.C. 

813(h), 30 U.S.C. 811(a). 

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 1219–0007. 

OMB authorization for an ICR cannot 

be for more than three (3) years without 

renewal, and the current approval for 

this collection is scheduled to expire on 

September 30, 2017. 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 

June 16, 2017 (82 FR 27727).
