appearance of their tobacco products in
television shows or movies; (4) how
much industry members spend on
advertising intended to reduce youth
tobacco usage; (5) the events, if any,
during which industry members’
tobacco brands are televised; and (6) for
the cigarette industry, the tar, nicotine,
and carbon monoxide ratings of their
cigarettes, to the extent they possess
such data. The information will again be
sought using compulsory process under
Section 6(b) of the FTC Act.
On August 7, 2008, the FTC sought
public comment on its proposed
information collection requests to the
major cigarette and smokeless tobacco
manufacturers. 73 FR 46006. One
comment was received, which is
discussed below.2 Pursuant to the OMB
regulations that implement the PRA, 5
CFR Part 1320, the FTC is providing this
second opportunity for public comment
while seeking OMB approval to extend
the existing paperwork clearance for the
information collection requests. All
comments should be filed as prescribed
in the ADDRESSES section above, and
must be received on or before December
15, 2008.

Comment Received:
Altria Client Services Inc. filed a
comment on behalf of Philip Morris
USA Inc. (‘‘PM USA’’), in which it
stated that PM USA believes the FTC’s
authority to collect the proposed
information ‘‘should be extended given
the important role that the FTC has
played and should continue to play
relative to these products.’’ The
comment then referenced a separate
Commission matter, noting that if the
FTC were to rescind its guidance that
factual statements of cigarette tar and
nicotine yields based on the Cambridge
Filter Method generally do not violate
the FTC Act,3 PM USA would question
the Commission’s need to continue
collecting such information.
The matter referred to by PM USA is
still being considered by the
Commission. If the 1966 guidance is
rescinded, the Commission will decide
whether to continue collecting tar,
nicotine, and carbon monoxide yield
2 That comment is available at https://
www.ftc.gov/os/comments/tobaccoreportspra/
index.shtm.
3 On July 14, 2008, the Commission published a
Federal Register notice seeking comment on a
proposal to rescind its guidance, issued in 1966,
that it is generally not a violation of the FTC Act
to make factual statements of the tar and nicotine
yields of cigarettes when statements of such yields
are supported by testing conducted pursuant to the
Cambridge Filter Method. 73 FR 40,351.

data to the extent the companies possess
them.
Estimated annual hours burden:
The FTC staff’s estimate of the hours
burden is based on the time required to
respond to each information request.
Although the FTC currently anticipates
sending information requests to the six
largest cigarette companies and the five
largest smokeless tobacco companies in
2009,4 the burden estimate is based on
up to 15 information requests being
issued per year to take into account any
future changes in these industries.
These companies vary greatly in size, in
the number of products that they sell,
and in the extent and variety of their
advertising and promotion. Prior input
received from the industries, combined
with staff’s knowledge of them, suggests
that the time most companies would
require to gather, organize, format, and
produce their responses would range
from 30 to 80 hours per information
request for the smaller companies, to as
much as hundreds of hours for the very
largest companies. As an
approximation, staff continues to
assume a per company average of 180
hours for the ten largest recipients of the
Commission’s information request to
comply with it; cumulatively, 1,800
hours per year.5 Staff further estimates
that for the eleventh recipient of the
information request to be issued in 2009
and the four possible additional
recipients, all of which would be
smaller companies than the initial ten
recipients, the burden should not
exceed 60 hours per company or 300
hours, cumulatively. Thus, the overall
estimated burden for a maximum of 15
recipients of the information request is
2,100 hours. These estimates include
any time spent by separately
incorporated subsidiaries and other
entities affiliated with the ultimate
parent company that has received the
information request.
Estimated cost burden:
It is not possible to calculate with
precision the labor costs associated with
this data production, as they entail
varying compensation levels of
management and/or support staff among
companies of different sizes. Financial,
legal, marketing, and clerical personnel
may be involved in the information
collection process. Commission staff
assumes that professional personnel
will handle most of the tasks involved
4 In August 2008, the Commission issued
information requests to six cigarette companies and
five smokeless tobacco companies. The Commission
anticipates that it will issue requests to the same
number of companies in 2009.

in gathering and producing responsive
information, and have applied an
average hourly wage of $150/hour for
their combined labor. Staff’s best
estimate for the total labor costs for up
to 15 information requests is $315,000.
Staff believes that the capital or other
non-labor costs associated with the
information requests are minimal.
Although the information requests may
necessitate that industry members
maintain the requested information
provided to the Commission, they
should already have in place the means
to compile and maintain business
records.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Background
ADDRESSES:
A. Purpose
GSA, on behalf of the Federal Grants
Streamlining Initiative, proposes to
issue a new standard form, the Tangible
Personal Property Report (SF–XXXX).
The SF–XXXX includes a cover page, an
Annual Report attachment, a Final
Report attachment, a Disposition/
Request Report attachment and a
Supplemental Sheet to provide detailed
item information. The purpose of this
new form is to provide a standard form
for assistance recipients to use when
On November 16, 2007, GSA, on
behalf of the Federal Grants
Streamlining Initiative, announced in
the Federal Register its intent to issue
a new standard form, the Tangible
Personal Property Report (SF–XXXX)
(72 FR 64648).
Public Law 106–107 required OMB to
direct, coordinate, and assist Executive
Branch departments and agencies in
establishing an interagency process to
streamline and simplify Federal
financial assistance procedures for nonFederal entities. The law also required
executive agencies to develop, submit to
the Congress, and implement a plan to
achieve streamlined and simplified
procedures.
Twenty-six Executive Branch agencies
jointly submitted a plan to the Congress
in May 2001, as the Act required. The
plan described the interagency process
through which the agencies would
review current policies and practices,
and seek to streamline and simplify
them. The process involved interagency
work groups under the auspices of the
Grants Management Committee of the
Chief Financial Officers Council. The
plan also identified substantive areas in
which the interagency work groups had
begun their review.
One of the substantive areas that the
agencies identified in the plan was a
need to streamline and simplify Federal
grant reporting requirements and
procedures and associated business
processes to reduce unnecessary
burdens on recipients and to improve
the timeliness, completeness and
quality of the information collected.
Under the standards for management
and disposition of federally owned
property, equipment and supplies
(tangible personal property) in 2 CFR
part 215, the ‘‘Uniform Administrative
Requirements for Grants and
Agreements With Institutions of Higher
Education, Hospitals, and Other NonProfit Organizations’’, and the ‘‘Uniform
Administrative Requirements for Grants
and Agreements with State and Local
Governments’’, codified by Federal
agencies at 53 FR 8048 (March 11,
1988), recipients may be required to
provide Federal agencies with
information concerning property in
their custody annually, at award
closeout, or when the property is no
longer needed.
During the public consultation
process mandated by Public Law 106–
107, recipients suggested the need for a
standard form to help them submit
appropriate property information when
required. The Public Law 106–107 Post
Award Reports Subgroup developed the
Tangible Personal Property Report (SF–
XXXX) for submission of required data
in the situations outlined in the Table
below:

personal property (and supplies) when required by a Federal financial
assistance award. Since this form will primarily be used for reporting
under grants, and GSA does not award grants, we are providing a burden
estimate for one respondent.
Respondents: Federal agencies and their assistance recipients.
Estimated Total Annual Burden Hours: 2.75.
Estimated Cost: There is no expected cost to the respondents or to
GSA.
