The regulation contains new and revised information collection requirements. These requirements are contained in the Information Collection Request
(ICR)approved by OMB under control number 1218-0176, which OSHA included in the final rule published in the **Federal Register** (84 FR 405). OSHA sought OMB approval of these requirements under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501 *et seq.* ), and, as required by that Act, is announcing the approval for these requirements. A copy of the approved ICR is available at *https://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAViewDocument?ref_nbr=201901-1218-001.* The final rule amended the information collection requirements of the recordkeeping regulation 29 CFR 1904.41 by rescinding the requirement for establishments with 250 or more employees to electronically submit information from OSHA Forms 300 and 301.

(EIN)electronically along with their injury and illness data submission. The public already has had the opportunity to comment on the information collection requirements and OMB has approved them on March 28, 2019. This announcement is to increase public awareness of OMB's approval of the information collection requirements.
