Short Statement:
OSHA is requesting an adjustment increase in the number of burden hours from 3,162 hours to 9,773 hours, a total increase of 6,611 burden hours. In this ICR, the scope of the maritime standards, 29 CFR 1915 for slings, shackles, and hooks, are based on the Final Economic Analysis for the final rule revising subpart F of 29 CFR part 1915 prepared by OSHA's Office of Regulatory Analysis. The revision of the standard applies to all shipyard employment which is defined in 1915.4(i) as ship repairing, shipbuilding, shipbreaking, and related employment. Also, upon further analysis, the Agency identified two new collections of information contained in the Standard under paragraphs 1915.112(c)(2) and 1915.115(c)(1).
