[Docket No. OSHA-2010-0055]

Recording and Reporting Occupational Injuries and Illnesses;
Extension of the Office of Management and Budget's (OMB) Approval of
Information Collection (Paperwork) Requirements

AGENCY: Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), Labor.

ACTION: Request for public comments.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: The Department of Labor, as part of its continuing effort to
reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a pre-clearance
consultation program to provide the general public

and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed and/or
continuing collections of information in accordance with the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995 (PRA). This program helps to ensure that
requested data can be provided in the desired format, reporting burden
(time and financial resources) is minimized, collection instruments are
clearly understood, and impact of collection requirements on
respondents can be properly assessed. The Occupational Safety and
Health Administration (OSHA) is soliciting comments concerning the
proposed extension of approval for the current information collection
requirements of Recording and Reporting Occupational Injuries and
Illnesses.

DATES: Comments must be submitted (postmarked, sent, or received) by
November 13, 2017.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

I. Background

    The Occupational Safety and Health Act (OSH Act) and 29 CFR part
1904 prescribe that certain employers maintain records of job-related
injuries and illnesses. The injury and illness records are intended to
have multiple purposes. One purpose is to provide data needed by OSHA
to carry out enforcement and intervention activities to provide workers
a safe and healthful work environment. The data are also needed by the
Bureau of Labor Statistics to report on the number and rate of
occupational injuries and illnesses in the country. The data also
provides information to employers and workers of the kinds of injuries
and illnesses occurring in the workplace and their related hazards.
Increased employer awareness should result in the identification and
voluntary correction of hazardous workplace conditions. Likewise,
workers who are provided information on injuries and illnesses will be
more likely to follow safe work practices and report workplace hazards.
This would generally raise the overall level of safety and health in
the workplace. OSHA currently has approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for the information collection requirements
contained in 29 CFR part 1904. That approval will expire on January 31,
2018, unless OSHA applies for an extension of the OMB approval. This
notice initiates the process for OSHA to request an extension of the
current OMB approval. This notice also solicits public comments on
OSHA's existing paperwork burden estimates from those interested
parties and seeks public responses to several questions related to the
development of OSHA's estimates. Interested parties are requested to
review OSHA's estimates, which are based upon the most current data
available, and to comment on their accuracy or appropriateness in
today's workplace situation.

II. Current Actions

    OSHA is requesting that OMB extend its approval of the information
collection requirements contained in 29 CFR part 1904, Recording and
Reporting Occupational Injuries and Illnesses. The Agency is requesting
to reduce its current burden hour estimate associated with this
Standard from 2,524,458 to 2,253,549 hours for a total reduction of
270,909 hours. The Agency will summarize the comments submitted in
response to this notice and will include this summary in the request to
OMB.
    Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
    Title: 29 CFR part 1904, Recording and Reporting Occupational
Injuries and Illnesses.
    OMB Control Number: 1218-0176.
    Affected Public: Business or other for-profits; farms; not-for-
profit institutions; State and local government.
    Number of Respondents: 1,002,912.
    Frequency: On occasion.
    Average Time per Response: Various.
    Estimated Total Burden Hours: 2,253,549.
    Estimated Cost (Operation and Maintenance): $123,583,587.

DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY

Federal Energy Regulatory Commission

18 CFR Part 157

[Docket No. RM81-19-000]

Natural Gas Pipelines; Project Cost and Annual Limits

AGENCY: Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Energy.

ACTION: Final rule.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: Pursuant to the authority delegated by the Commission's
regulations, the Director of the Office of Energy Projects (OEP)
computes and publishes the project cost and annual limits for natural
gas pipelines blanket construction certificates for each calendar year.

DATES: This final rule is effective March 3, 2021 and establishes cost
limits applicable from January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021.

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: Richard W. Foley, Chief, Certificates
Branch 1, Division of Pipeline Certificates,<PHONE_NUMBER>.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Section 157.208(d) of the Commission's
Regulations provides for project cost limits applicable to
construction, acquisition, operation and miscellaneous rearrangement of
facilities (Table I) authorized under the blanket certificate procedure
(Order No. 234, 19 FERC ] 61,216). Section 157.215(a) specifies the
calendar year dollar limit which may be expended on underground storage
testing and development (Table II) authorized under the blanket
certificate. Section 157.208(d) requires that the ``limits specified in
Tables I and II shall be adjusted each calendar year to reflect the
'GDP implicit price deflator' published by the Department of Commerce
for the previous calendar year.''
    Pursuant to Sec.  375.308(x)(1) of the Commission's Regulations,
the authority for the publication of such cost limits, as adjusted for
inflation, is delegated to the Director of the Office of Energy
Projects. The cost limits for calendar year 2021, as published in Table
I of Sec.  157.208(d) and Table II of Sec.  157.215(a), are hereby
issued.

Effective Date

    This final rule is effective March 3, 2021. The provisions of 5
U.S.C. 804 regarding Congressional review of final rules does not apply
to the final rule because the rule concerns agency procedure and
practice and will not substantially affect the rights or obligations of
non-agency parties. The final rule merely updates amounts published in
the Code of Federal Regulations to reflect the Department of Commerce's
latest annual determination of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP)
implicit price deflator, a mathematical updating required by the
Commission's existing regulations.

Forchlorfenuron (128819)

Screening Level Usage Analysis (SLUA)

Date:  June 26, 2014

What is a Screening Level Usage Analysis (SLUA)?

Available estimates of pesticide usage data for a particular active
ingredient that is used on agricultural crops in the United States.

Pesticide usage data obtained from various sources.  The data are then
merged, averaged, and rounded so that the presented information is not
proprietary, business confidential, or trade secret.

What does it contain?

Pesticide usage data for a single active ingredient only.

Agricultural use sites (crops) that the pesticide is reported to be used
on.

Available pesticide usage information from U.S. states that produce 80%
or more of a crop, in most cases, or less than 80%, in rare cases,
depending on the scope of the survey and available resources.

Annual percent of crop treated (average & maximum) for each agricultural
crop.

Average annual pounds of the pesticide applied for each agricultural
crop (i.e., for the states surveyed, not for the entire United States).

What assumptions can I make about the reported data?

Average pounds of active ingredient applied - Values are calculated by
merging pesticide usage data sources together; averaging across all
observations, then rounding.  Note:  If the estimated value is less than
500, then that value is labeled <500.  Estimated values between 500 &
<1,000,000 are rounded to 1 significant digit.  Estimated values of
1,000,000 or greater are rounded to 2 significant digits.)

Average percent of crop treated - Values are calculated by merging data
sources together; averaging by year, averaging across all years, &
rounding to the nearest multiple of 5.  Note:  If the estimated value is
less than 2.5, then the value is labeled <2.5.  If the estimated value
is less than 1, then the value is labeled <1.

Maximum percent of crop treated - Value is the single maximum value
reported across all data sources, across all years, & rounded up to the
nearest multiple of 5.  Note:  If the estimated value is less than 2.5,
then the value is labeled <2.5.

What are the data sources used?

USDA-NASS (United States Department of Agriculture’s National
Agricultural Statistics Service) – pesticide usage data from 2004 to
2012.

Private pesticide market research – pesticide usage data from 2004 to
2012.

California Department of Pesticide Regulation (DPR) Pesticide Use
Reporting (PUR) data for 2004 to 2011.

What are the limitations to the data?

Additional registered uses may exist but are not included because the
available surveys do not report usage (e.g., small acreage crops).

Lack of reported usage data for the pesticide on a crop does not imply
zero usage.

Usage data on a particular site may be noted in data sources, but not
quantified.  In these instances, the site would not be reported in the
SLUA.

Non-agricultural use sites (e.g., turf, post-harvest, mosquito control,
etc.) are not reported in the SLUA.  A separate request must be made to
receive these estimates.

Some sites show some use, even though they are not on the label.  This
usage could be due to various factors, including, but not limited to
Section 18 requests, existing stocks of the chemical, data collection
errors, and experimental use permits (EUPs).

Date:  June 26, 2014

Screening Level Estimates of Agricultural Uses of Forchlorfenuron
(128819)

Sorted Alphabetically

(Reporting Timeframe: 2004-2012)

Average	Maximum

1	Grapes	1,000	<2.5	<2.5

2	Kiwifruit	<500	25	50

All numbers rounded.

<500: indicates less than 500 pounds of active ingredient.

	  <2.5: indicates less than 2.5 percent of crop is treated.

SLUA data sources include:

USDA-NASS (United States Department of Agriculture's National
Agricultural Statistics Service)

Private Pesticide Market Research
