SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: This ICR seeks to extend PRA authority for 
the Logging Operations Standard information collection requirements 
codified in regulations 29 CFR 1910.266(f), (g), and (i). The Standard 
requires an Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSH Act) covered 
employer subject to the Standard to assure operating and maintenance 
instructions are available on a machine or in the area where the 
machine is operated. For vehicles, the employer must assure that 
operating and maintenance instructions are available for each vehicle. 
The standard also requires an employer to provide training to workers 
and to certify that the training has been provided. OSH Act sections 
2(b)(3), 6(b), and 8(c) authorize this information collection. See 29 
U.S.C. 651(b)(3), 655(b) 657(c).
    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 OMB Control Number 1218-0198.
    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

[[Page 28909]]

June 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 March 9, 2017 (82 FR 13141).
    Interested parties are encouraged to send comments to the OMB, 
Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs by July 31, 2017. In order 
to help ensure appropriate consideration, comments should mention OMB 
Control Number 1218-0198. 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.
    Agency: DOL-OSHA.
