Reduction Act of 1995 (Pub. L. 104-13, 44 U.S.C. chapter 35). A copy of 
each ICR, with applicable supporting documentation, may be obtained 
from RegInfo.gov at http://www.reginfo.gov/public/do/PRAMain or by 
contacting Darrin King on 202-693-4129 (this is not a toll-free 
number)/e-mail: [email protected].
    Comments should be sent to Office of Information and Regulatory 
Affairs, Attn: OMB Desk Officer for the Occupational Safety and Health 
Administration (OSHA), Office of Management and Budget, Room 10235, 
Washington, DC 20503, Telephone: 202-395-7316/Fax: 202-395-6974 (these

    The OMB is particularly interested in comments which:
     Evaluate whether the proposed collection of information is 
necessary for the proper performance of the functions of the agency, 
including whether the information will have practical utility;
     Evaluate 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;
     Enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the 
information to be collected; and
     Minimize the burden of the collection of information on 
those who are to respond, including through the use of appropriate 
automated, electronic, mechanical, or other technological collection 
techniques or other forms of information technology, e.g., permitting 
electronic submission of responses.

    Agency: Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
    Type of Review: Extension without change of currently approved

    Description: Paragraph 1910.217(h) regulates the use of presence 
sensing devices (``PSDs'') used to initiate the operation of mechanical 
power presses; a PSD (e.g., a photoelectric field or curtain) 
automatically stops the stroke of a mechanical power press when the 
device detects an operator entering a danger zone near the press. A 
mechanical power press using Presence Sensing Device Initiation (PSDI) 
automatically starts (initiates) the stroke when the device detects no 
operator within the danger zone near the press. The certification/
validation of safety systems for PSDI shall consider the press, 
controls, safeguards, operator, and environment as an integrated system 
which shall comply with 29 CFR 1910.217(a) through (h).

    Agency: Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
    Type of Review: Extension without change of currently approved

    Total Annualized capital/startup costs: $0.
    Total Annual Costs (operating/maintaining systems or purchasing

posting warning signs while the derrick is undergoing adjustments and 
repairs. Certification records must be maintained and disclosed upon 
request.
    Agency: Occupational Safety and Health Administration.
    Type of Review: Extension without change of currently approved

    Title: Additional Requirements for special dipping and coating 
operations (Dip Tanks) (29 CFR 1910.126(g)(4)).
    OMB Number: 1218-0237.
    Type of Response: Reporting and Third-party disclosure.
    Affected Public: Public Sector: Business or other for-profits.

    Description: The standard on Additional Requirements for Special 
Dipping and Coating Operations, 29 CFR 1910.126(g)(4)), requires 
employers to post a conspicuous sign near each piece of electrostatic 
detearing equipment that notifies employees of the minimum safe 
distance they must maintain between goods undergoing electrostatic 
detearing and the electrodes or conductors of the equipment used in the 
process. Doing so reduces the likelihood of igniting the explosive 
chemicals used in electrostatic detearing operations.
