Mine Agency Extends Hoist Safety Paperwork Again

## Summary

The Mine Safety and Health Administration wants to keep collecting records about tests and checks on hoisting equipment used to lift miners safely. This proposal asks for public feedback by July 31, 2026, to make sure the paperwork is clear and not too much work. If you work with mining equipment, this affects you, but no new costs or big changes are planned—just a smooth extension of current rules.

## Abstract

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 "Records of Tests and Examinations of Personnel Hoisting Equipment."
