The FTC Act and other laws the

consider and use in this proceeding as
appropriate. The Commission will
consider all timely and responsive
public comments that it receives,
whether filed in paper or electronic
form. Comments received will be
available to the public on the FTC
website, to the extent practicable, at

discretion, the Commission makes every
effort to remove home contact
information for individuals from the
public comments it receives before
placing those comments on the FTC

must be accompanied by an explicit request for
confidential treatment, including the factual and
legal basis for the request, and must identify the
specific portions of the comment to be withheld
from the public record. The request will be granted
or denied by the Commission’s General Counsel,
consistent with applicable law and the public
interest. See FTC Rule 4.9(c), 16 CFR 4.9(c).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA, 44 U.S.C. 3501-3521, Federal
agencies must obtain approval from
OMB for each collection of information
they conduct or sponsor. ‘‘Collection of
information’’ means agency requests or
requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide
information to a third party. 44 U.S.C.
3502(3); 5 CFR 1320.3(c). As required by
the PRA, the FTC is providing this
opportunity for public comment before
requesting that OMB extend the existing
paperwork clearance for the regulations
noted herein. 44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A).
The FTC invites comments on: (1)
whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of the functions of the
agency, including whether the
information will have practical utility;
(2) 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;
(3) ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information to be
collected; and (4) ways to 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. All comments
should be filed as prescribed in the
ADDRESSES section above, and must be
received on or before December 9, 2008.
The FPLA, 15 U.S.C. 1451-1461, was
enacted to eliminate consumer
deception concerning product size
representations and package content
information. The regulations that
implement the FPLA, 16 CFR Parts 500
- 503, establish requirements for the
manner and form of labeling applicable
to manufacturers, packagers, and
distributors of ‘‘consumer
commodities.’’2 Section 4 of the FPLA
2 ‘‘Consumer commodity’’ means any article,
product, or commodity of any kind or class which
