The CPSC staff estimates that the
annualized cost to all respondents is
approximately $2,300.84 based on an
hourly wage of $47.44 per hour ($47.44
× 48.5). (Bureau of Labor Statistics
(‘‘BLS’’), December 2008, all workers,
service, management, professional, and
related).
The CPSC staff estimates that it will
take an average of 2.5 hours to review
the information collected from the oral
communications with pool owners/
operators or staff. The annual cost to the
Federal government of the collection of
information in these regulations is
estimated to be $19,361.21. This is
based on an average wage rate of $55.97
(the equivalent of a GS–14 Step 5
employee). This represents 70.1 percent
of total compensation with an
additional 29.9 percent coming from
benefits (BLS, September 2008,
percentage total benefits for all civilian
management, professional, and related
employees), or $79.84 × 242.5 hours.
