SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

In a series of Federal Register notices, the Agency announced its requests to OMB to renew its current extensions of approvals for various information collection (paperwork) requirements in its safety and health standards for General Industry, Shipyard Employment, and Construction. In these Federal Register announcements, the Agency provided 60-day comment periods for the public to respond to OSHA's burden hour and cost estimates.

In accordance with PRA-95 (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), OMB renewed its approval for these information collection requirements and assigned OMB control numbers to these requirements. The table below provides the following information for each of these OMB-approved requirements: The title of the collection; the date of the Federal Register notice, the Federal Register Reference (date, volume, and leading page); OMB's control number; and the new expiration date.

Also, in accordance with the PRA 95 (44 U.S.C. 3507(d) and 5 CFR 1320.11), OSHA submitted 12 revised ICRs to OMB for approval when the Agency published the Standards Improvement Project—Phase II; Proposed Rule on October 31, 2002 (67 FR 66494). OSHA will resubmit these ICRs to OMB as revisions if changes are made based on public comments on the Standards Improvement Project—Phase II (SIPs) proposed rule. The SIPs ICRs in the following Table may either be identified by the publication date of October 31, 2002, or by Docket Number S-778-A.
