may be obtained from the RegInfo.gov Web site at http://

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.

    Description: OSHA's On-Site Consultation Service offers free and 
confidential advice to small and medium-sized businesses in all states 
across the country, with priority given to high-hazard worksites. 
Consultation services are completely separate from enforcement and do 
not result in penalties or citations. The Consultation Program 
regulations at 29 CFR part 1908 specify services to be provided, and 
practices and procedures to be followed by the State On-site 
Consultation Programs. Information collection requirements set forth in 
the On-site Consultation Program regulations are in two categories: 
State Responsibilities and Employer Responsibilities. For additional 
information, see related 60-day preclearance notice published in the 
Federal Register at 73 FR 36905 on June 30, 2008. PRA documentation 
prepared in association with the preclearance notice is available on 
http://www.regulations.gov under docket number OSHA 2008-0019.

Darrin A. King,
Departmental Clearance Officer.
