SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Marine Terminals and Longshoring
Standards information collection requirements are related to the
testing, certification, and marking of specific types of cargo lifting
appliances and associated cargo handling gear and other cargo handling
equipment such as conveyors and industrial trucks. The information the
OSHA requires from employers are necessary to reduce worker injuries
and fatalities associated with cargo lifting gear, transfer of
vehicular cargo, manual cargo handling, and exposure to hazardous
atmospheres.
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 if the
collection of information does not display a valid OMB Control Number.
See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6. The DOL obtains OMB approval for this
information collection under Control Number 1218-0196. The current OMB
approval is scheduled to expire on June 30, 2012; however, it should be
noted that existing information collection requirements submitted to
the OMB receive a month-to-month extension while they undergo review.
For additional information, see the related notice published in the
Federal Register on April 26, 2012 (77 FR 24990).
Interested parties are encouraged to send timely comments to the
OMB, Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs at the address shown
in the ADDRESSES section of this notice. In order to help ensure
appropriate consideration, comments should reference OMB Control Number
1218-0196. 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.
