SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The Federal Mine Safety and Health Act of
1977 (Mine Act), as amended, 30 U.S.C. 801 et seq., recognizes that
education and training is an important element of federal efforts to
make the nation's mines safe. These standards are intended to ensure
that miners will be effectively trained in matters affecting their
health and safety, with the goal of reducing the occurrence of injury
and illness in the nation's mines. Title 30 CFR 46.3 requires written
training plans for training and retraining miners engaged in shell
dredging or employed at sand, gravel, surface stone, surface clay,
colloidal phosphate, or surface limestone mines. For additional
substantive information about this ICR, see the related notice
published in the Federal Register on January 21, 2022 (87 FR 3357).
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 the OMB approves it 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
OMB Control Number. See 5 CFR 1320.5(a) and 1320.6.
DOL seeks PRA authorization for this information collection for
three (3) years. OMB authorization for an ICR cannot be for more than
three (3) years without renewal. The DOL notes that information
collection requirements submitted to the OMB for existing ICRs receive
a month-to-month extension while they undergo review.
