SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Rules Relating to Review of
National Futures Association Decisions
in Disciplinary, Membership Denial,
Registration, and Member
Responsibility Actions, OMB Control
No. 3038–0043. This is a request for
extension of a currently approved
information collection.
Abstract: 17 CFR part 171 rules
require a registered futures association
to provide fair and orderly procedures
for membership and disciplinary
actions. The Commission’s review of
decisions of registered futures
associations in disciplinary,
membership denial, registration, and
member responsibility actions is
governed by section 17(h)(2) of the
Commodity Exchange Act, 7 U.S.C.
21(h)(2). The rules establish procedures
and standards for Commission review of
such actions, and the reporting
requirements included in the procedural
rules are either directly required by
section 17 of the Act or are necessary to
the type of appellate review role
Congress intended the Commission to
undertake when it adopted that
provision.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to, a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
control number. The OMB control
numbers for the CFTC’s regulations
were published on December 30, 1981.
See 46 FR 63035 (Dec. 30, 1981). The
Federal Register notice with a 60-day
comment period soliciting comments on
this collection of information was
published on February 8, 2006 (71 FR
6455).
Burden statement: The respondent
burden for this collection is estimated to
average .5 hours per response. This
estimate includes the time needed to
review instructions; develop, acquire,
install, and utilize technology and
systems for the purposes of collecting,
validating, and verifying information,
processing and maintaining information
and disclosing and providing
information; adjust the existing ways to
comply with any previously applicable
instructions and requirements; train
personnel to be able to respond to a
collection of information; and transmit
or otherwise disclose the information.

Comment Request—Flammability
Standards for Children’s Sleepwear
Consumer Product Safety
Commission.
ACTION: Notice.
AGENCY:
SUMMARY: In the Federal Register of
January 25, 2006, 71 FR 4118, the
Consumer Product Safety Commission
(CPSC) or Commission published a
notice in accordance with provisions of
the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995
(44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) to announce the
agency’s intention to seek extension of
approval of collections of information in
the flammability standards for
children’s sleepwear and implementing
regulations. Two comments were
received in response to that notice. One
comment supported the proposed
extension of information collection for
children’s sleepwear. One comment
stated that over-the-counter samples
should be tested and that the collection
of information should be computerized
and violations reported. Currently, the
standard is enforced through the
inspection of establishments
manufacturing sleepwear, through retail
surveillance and by follow-up to
consumer and trade complaints. During
these inspections, randomly selected
samples are tested and samples required
to be maintained by the standard, as
well as record keeping that is required

by the standard, are examined.
Information regarding violations of the
standard are available on the recall
section of the CPSC Web site at https://
www.cpsc.gov.
Accordingly, by publication of this
notice, the Commission announces that
it has submitted to the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) a
request for extension of approval of the
collections of information for three
years from the date of approval.
The standards and regulations are
codified as the Flammability Standard
for Children’s Sleepwear: Sizes 0
Through 6X, 16 CFR Part 1615; and the
Flammability Standard for Children’s
Sleepwear: Sizes 7 Through 14, 16 CFR
part 1616. The flammability standards
and implementing regulations prescribe
requirements for testing and
recordkeeping by manufacturers and
importers of children’s sleepwear
subject to the standards. The
information in the records required by
the regulations allows the Commission
to determine if items of children’s
sleepwear comply with the applicable
standard. This information also enables
the Commission to obtain corrective
actions if items of children’s sleepwear
fail to comply with the applicable
standard in a manner which creates a
substantial risk of injury.

band base station antennas. The
collection of information is in
regulations implementing the Safety
Standard for Omnidirectional Citizens
Band Base Station Antennas (16 CFR
part 1204). These regulations establish
testing and recordkeeping requirements
for manufacturers and importers of
antennas subject to the standard. The
Commission will consider all comments
received in response to this notice
before requesting an extension of
approval of this collection of
information from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB).

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
In 1982, the Commission issued the
Safety Standard for Omnidirectional
Citizens Band Antennas (16 CFR part
1204) to reduce risks of death and
serious injury that may result if an
omnidirectional antenna contacts an
overhead power line while being
erected or removed from its site. The
standard contains performance tests to
demonstrate that an antenna will not
transmit a harmful electric current if it
contacts an electric power line with a
voltage of 14,500 volts phase-to-ground.
Certification regulations implementing
the standard require manufacturers,
importers, and private labelers of
antennas subject to the standard to
perform tests to demonstrate that those
products meet the requirements of the
standard, and to maintain records of
those tests. The certification regulations
are codified at 16 CFR part 1204,
subpart B.
The Commission uses the information
compiled and maintained by
manufacturers, importers, and private
labelers of antennas subject to the
standard to help protect the public from
risks of injury or death associated with
omnidirectional citizens band base
station antennas. More specifically, this
information helps the Commission
determine that antennas subject to the
standard comply with all applicable
requirements. The Commission also
uses this information to obtain
corrective actions if omnidirectional
citizens band base station antennas fail
to comply with the standard in a
manner which creates a substantial risk
of injury to the public. The Office of
Management and Budget approved the
collection of information in the
certification regulations under control
number 3041–0006. OMB’s most recent
extension of approval expires on July
31, 2006. The Commission now
proposes to request an extension of
approval without change for the
collection of information in the
certification regulations.

B. Estimated Burden
The Commission staff estimates that
about 5 firms manufacture or import
citizens band base station antennas
subject to the standard. The
Commission staff estimates that the
certification regulations will impose an
average annual burden of about 220
hours on each of those firms. That
burden will result from conducting the
testing required by the regulations and
maintaining records of the results of that
testing. The total annual burden
imposed by the regulations on
manufacturers and importers of citizens
band base station antennas is
approximately 1,100 hours.
The hourly wage for the testing and
recordkeeping required to conduct the
testing and maintain records required by
the regulations is about $42.84 (Bureau
of Labor Statistics, 2006), for an
estimated annual cost to the industry of
$47,000.
C. Request for Comments
The Commission solicits written
comments from all interested persons
about the proposed collection of
information. The Commission
specifically solicits information relevant
to the following topics:
—Whether the collection of information
described above is necessary for the
proper performance of the
Commission’s functions, including
whether the information would have
practical utility;
—Whether the estimated burden of the
proposed collection of information is
accurate;
—Whether the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be
collected could be enhanced; and
—Whether the burden imposed by the
collection of information could be
minimized by use of automated,
electronic or other technological
collection techniques, or other forms
of information technology.
