Proposed Extension of Information Collection: Representative of Miners, Notification of Legal Identity, and Notification of Commencement of Operations and Closing of Mines

Resumen

The Department of Labor (DOL), as part of its continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, conducts a pre- clearance consultation program for all information collections, to provide the public and Federal agencies with an opportunity to comment on proposed collections of information, in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995. 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 the impact of collection requirements on respondents can be properly assessed. The Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) is soliciting comments on the information collection titled "Representative of Miners, Notification of Legal Identity, and Notification of Commencement of Operations and Closing of Mines."
