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

PO 00000

Frm 00049

Fmt 4703

Sfmt 4703

and continuing information collection
requirements in accord with the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(PRA–95) (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 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 Respiratory Protection Standard
(29 CFR 1910.134; hereafter, ‘‘the
Standard’’) contains information
collection requirements that require
employers to: develop a written
respirator program; conduct worker
medical evaluations and provide followup medical evaluations to determine the
worker’s ability to use a respirator;
provide the physician or other licensed
healthcare professional with
information about the worker’s
respirator and the conditions under
which the worker will use the
respirator; and administer fit tests for
workers who will use negative- or
positive-pressure, tight-fitting
facepieces. In addition, employers must
ensure that workers store emergency-use
respirators in compartments clearly
marked as containing emergency-use
respirators. For respirators maintained
for emergency use, employers must
label or tag the respirator with a
certificate stating the date of the
inspection, the name of the individual
who did the inspection, the findings of
the inspection, required remedial
action, and the identity of the respirator.
The Standard also requires employers
to ensure that cylinders used to supply
breathing air to respirators have a
certificate of analysis from the supplier
stating that the breathing air meets the
requirements for Type 1—Grade D
breathing air; such certification assures
employers that the purchased breathing
air is safe. Compressors used to supply
breathing air to respirators must have a
tag containing the most recent change
date and the signature of the individual
authorized by the employer to perform
the change. Employers must maintain

Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 132 / Thursday, July 10, 2014 / Notices
this tag at the compressor. These tags
provide assurance that the compressors
are functioning properly.

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
Respiratory Protection Standard (29 CFR

decrease in the number of covered
establishments. In addition, OSHA is
requesting an adjustment increase of
$3,265,756 in operation and
maintenance costs (from $185,578,935
to $188,844,691) associated with
increased estimated costs for employee
medical exams, fit-testing materials and
fit-tests. The Agency will summarize the
comments submitted in response to this
notice and will include this summary in
the request to OMB.
