SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
I. Background
The Department of Labor, as part of
the 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 collection of information in
accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act (PRA) (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 (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 Standard protects workers from
the adverse health effects that may
result from their exposure to methylene
chloride (MC). The requirements in the
Standard include worker exposure
monitoring, notifying workers of their
MC exposures, administering medical
examinations to workers, providing
examining physicians with specific
program and worker information,
ensuring that workers receive a copy of
their medical examination results,
maintaining workers’ exposure
monitoring and medical examination

records for specific periods, and
providing access to these records by
OSHA, the National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health, the
affected workers, and their authorized
representatives.
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
The agency is requesting an
adjustment increase in the number of
burden hours from 56,276 to 61,814.83
hours (a total increase of 5,538.83
hours). The increase is a result the
agency’s estimate, based on updated
data, that the number of establishments
and workers affected by the Standard
has increased.
Type of Review: Extension of a
currently approved collection.
Title: Methylene Chloride (29 CFR
part 1910.1052).
OMB Control Number: 1218–0179.
Affected Public: Business or other forprofits.
Number of Respondents: 84,595.
Frequency of Responses: On occasion.
Total Responses: 236,462.
Average Time per Response:
Annually; semi-annually; quarterly; on
occasion.
Estimated Total Burden Hours:
61,814.83.
Estimated Cost (Operation and
Maintenance): $20,375,527.20.
