Background The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burdens, conducts a pre-clearance consultation program to provide the public with an opportunity to comment on proposed and continuing information collection requirements in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA-95) (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). OSHA will be requesting approval from the Office of Management and Budget
(OMB)for certain information collection requirements contained in the Temporary Labor Camps Standard (29 CFR 1910.142). This notice initiates the process for OSHA to request OMB approval. The purpose of the Temporary Labor Camps Standards is to eliminate the incidence of communicable disease among temporary labor camp residents. The Standard requires camp superintendents to report immediately to the local health officer
(1)the name and address of any individual in the camp known to have or suspected of having a communicable disease or suspected food poisoning, or
(2)an unusual prevalence of any illness in which fever, diarrhea, sore throat, vomiting or jaundice is a prominent symptom. III. Special Issues for Comment OSHA has a particular interest in comments on the following issues: • Whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the Agency's functions, including whether the information will have practical utility; • 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, especially the number of temporary labor camps in the United States; and • The quality, utility, and clarity of the information on those who are to respond, including the use of appropriate automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection techniques or other forms of information technology, *e.g.,* permitting electronic submissions of responses. IV. Proposed Actions OSHA proposes to extend OMB's approval of the collection of information requirements specified in 5 CFR 1320.8(d). OSHA will summarize the comments submitted in response to this notice, and will include this summary in its request to OMB to extend the approval of the information-collection requirements for the Temporary Labor Camps Standard. *Type of Review:* Extension of a currently approved information-collection requirement. *Title:* Temporary Labor Camps (29 CFR 1910.142). *OMB Number:* 1218-0096. *Affected Public:* Business or other for-profit; not-for-profit institutions; Federal government; State, local or tribal governments. *Number of Respondents:* 838. *Frequency:* On occasion. *Average time per Response:* Five minutes response. *Estimating Total Burden Hours:* 67 hours. Authority and Signature This document was prepared under the direction of John L. Henshaw, Assistant Secretary of Labor for Occupational Safety and Health, 200 Constitution Avenue, NW., Washington, DC 20210. This action is taken pursuant to the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A)). Signed at Washington, DC, this 28th day of October 2002. John L. Henshaw, Assistant Secretary of Labor.
