SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Background

    The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to reduce 
paperwork and respondent (i.e., the State Plans) burden, conducts a 
preclearance consultation program to provide the public with an 
opportunity to comment on proposed 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 minimized, collection instruments are understandable, and OSHA's 
estimate of the information collection burden is accurate. Currently, 
OSHA is soliciting comments concerning the extension of the information 
collection requirements contained in the series of regulations 
establishing requirements for the submission, initial approval, 
continuing approval, final approval, monitoring, and evaluation of 
OSHA-approved State Plans:
     29 CFR part 1902, State Plans for the Development and 
Enforcement of State Standards;
     29 CFR part 1953, Changes to State Plans for the 
Development and Enforcement of State Standards;
     29 CFR part 1954, Procedures for the Evaluation and 
Monitoring of Approved State Plans; and
     29 CFR part 1956, State Plans for the Development and 
Enforcement of State Standards Applicable to State and Local Government 
Employees in States Without Approved Private Employee Plans.
    Section 18 of the Occupational Safety and Health Act (29 U.S.C. 
667) offers an opportunity to the states to assume responsibility for 
the development and enforcement of state standards through the 
mechanism of an OSHA-approved State Plan. Absent an approved plan, 
states are precluded from enforcing occupational safety and health 
standards in the private sector with respect to any issue for which 
Federal OSHA has promulgated a standard. Once approved and operational, 
the state adopts standards and provides most occupational safety and 
health enforcement and compliance assistance in the state under the 
authority of its plan, instead of Federal OSHA. States also must extend 
their jurisdiction to cover state and local government employees and 
may obtain approval of State Plans limited in scope to these workers. 
To obtain and maintain State Plan approval, a state must submit various 
documents to OSHA describing its program structure and operation, 
including any modifications thereto as they occur, in accordance with 
the identified regulations. OSHA funds 50 percent of the costs required 
to be incurred by an approved State Plan, with the state at least 
matching and providing additional funding at its discretion.

II. Special Issues for Comment

    OSHA has a particular interest in comments on the following issues:
    [ssquf] Whether the proposed information collection requirements 
are necessary for the proper performance of the

[[Page 4673]]

Agency's functions, including whether the information is useful;
    [ssquf] 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;
    [ssquf] The quality, utility, and clarity of the information 
collected; and
    [ssquf] Ways to minimize the burden on participating states 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 associated with its State Plan regulations. 
The Agency is requesting an adjustment increase to adjust the number of 
burden hours associated with the developmental steps necessary for 
states in the developmental process, including Maine, Illinois and the 
Virgin Islands. Maine received initial approval on August 5, 2015 and 
has been moved to the developmental category. As a result, the total 
burden hours have increased slightly from 11,369 to 11,519 burden hours 
(an increase of 150 burden hours). The Agency will summarize the 
comments submitted in response to this notice and will include this 
summary in its request to OMB.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Title: Occupational Safety and Health State Plans.
    OMB Control Number: 1218-0247.
    Affected Public: Designated state government agencies that are 
seeking or have submitted and obtained approval for State Plans for the 
development and enforcement of occupational safety and health. 
standards.
    Number of Respondents: 28.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion; quarterly; annually.
    Total Responses: 1,309.
    Average Time per Response: Varies from 30 minutes (.5 hour) to 
respond to an information inquiry to 80 hours to document state annual 
performance goals.
    Estimated Total Burden Hours: 11,519.
    Estimated Cost (Operation and Maintenance): $0.
