Environmental Response,

U.S.C. 9601–9603 at several of the
mining, milling, and smelting facilities
located in Missouri owned and operated
by The Doe Run Resources Corporation,
The Doe Run Resources Corporation
d/b/a ‘‘The Doe Run Company’’, and The
Buick Resource Recycling Facility, LLC
(‘‘Defendants’’). To resolve the United
States’ and State’s claims the
Defendants will pay a civil penalty of $7
million. The penalty will be paid in a
$3.5 million payment to the United
States and a $1.5 million payment to the
state of Missouri, with an additional $1
million plus interest to be paid to the
state each year for the next two years.
The settlement also requires Doe Run to
establish financial assurance trust funds
for the cleanup of the following active
or former mining and milling facilities:
Brushy Creek, Buick, Fletcher,
Sweetwater, Viburnum, and West Fork.
Doe Run will also take steps to address
RCRA violations at certain facilities;
finalize and come into compliance with
more stringent Clean Water Act permits
at 10 of its facilities, including
Herculaneum, Glover, Brushy Creek,
Buick Mill, Fletcher, Sweetwater,
Viburnum, West Fork, Mine #35
(Casteel), and Buick Resource Recycling;
and will spend an estimated $5.8
million on stream mitigation activities
along 8.5 miles of Bee Fork Creek, an
impaired waterway near Doe Run’s
Fletcher mine and mill facility. At four
facilities, Buick Mine, Brushy Creek,
Fletcher, and Sweetwater, Doe Run will
also enclose the lead concentrate
handling, loading, and storage areas
under negative pressure with emissions
routed to a baghouse. The company will
also spend $2 million on community
mitigation projects over the next four
years.
In addition, instead of installing
pollution control technologies needed to
reduce sulfur dioxide and lead
emissions as required by the Clean Air
Act, Doe Run has made a business
decision to shut down its lead smelter
in Herculaneum, Mo., by Dec. 31, 2013.
The company will also provide an
initial $8.14 million in financial
assurance to guarantee cleanup work at
the Herculaneum facility.
The Department of Justice will receive
for a period of 30 days from the date of
this publication comments relating to
the Consent Decree. Comments should
be addressed to the Assistant Attorney
General, Environment and Natural
Resources Division, and either e-mailed

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:

Theda Kenney or Todd Owen,
Directorate of Standards and Guidance,
OSHA, U.S. Department of Labor, Room
N–3609, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW.,
Washington, DC 20210; telephone (202)
693–2222.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of its
continuing effort 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).
Paragraph (f)(1)(iii) of the Standard
requires the employer to assure that
operating and maintenance instructions
are available on machines or in the area
where the machine is being operated.
Paragraph (g)(3) requires the employer
to assure that operating and
maintenance instructions are available
in each vehicle.
Paragraph (i)(1) of the Standard
requires employers to provide training
for each employee, including
supervisors. To meet this requirement,
employers must conduct the training at
the frequencies specified by paragraph
(i)(2). Paragraph (i)(3) specifies that an
worker’s/supervisor’s training must
consist of the following elements: Safe
work practices, including the use,
operation, and maintenance of tools,
machines, and vehicles the worker/
supervisor uses or operates, as well as
procedures, practices, and requirements
of the employer’s worksite; recognition
and control of health and safety hazards
associated with the worker’s/
supervisor’s specific work tasks and

PO 00000

Frm 00075

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

63507

logging operations in general; and the
requirements of the Standard.
Paragraph (i)(10)(i) specifies that
employers must verify that they are in
compliance with the training
requirements in paragraph (i). This
certification must be in writing and
provide the following information: The
name/identifier of the worker/
supervisor; the date(s) of the training;
and either the signature of the employer
or the individual who conducted the
training. Paragraph (i)(10)(ii) requires
employers to maintain the most recent
certification for training completed by
an employee/supervisor.
Training workers/supervisors in safe
work practices and to recognize and
control the safety and health hazards
associated with their work tasks and
overall logging operations enables them
to prevent serious accidents by using
specific procedures and equipment in a
safe manner to avoid or to control
dangerous exposures to these hazards.
Establishing and maintaining written
certification of the training that each
worker/supervisor has received (i.e., job
and first aid) assures the employer that
the training specified by the Standard
has been conducted, and at the required
frequencies. With regard to first-aid
training, the certification assures that
the worker’s/supervisor’s training
certificate is currently valid. In addition,
these records provide the most efficient
means for an OSHA compliance officer
to determine whether an employer
performed the required training at the
necessary and appropriate frequencies.
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
Standard on Logging Operations (29
CFR 1910.266). The Agency is
requesting to decrease its existing

burden hours from 31,286 hours to
25,957 for a total decrease of 5,329
hours. This decrease is the result of
updated data which shows a decrease in
the number of logging establishments.
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: Logging Operations (29 CFR
1910.266).
OMB Number: 1218–0198.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits.
Number of Respondents: 10,038.
Frequency of Recordkeeping: Initially;
on occasion.
Average Time per Response: Varies
from 1 minute (.02 hour) to maintain
training certification records to 3 hours
to conduct initial training.
Estimated Total Burden Hours:
25,957.
Estimated Cost (Operation and
Maintenance): $0.
