the required records can be used by the
manufacturer or importer and by the
Commission to identify those persons
and firms who should be notified of the
recall. The Commission will consider all
comments received in response to this
notice before requesting approval of this
collection of information from OMB.
Estimated Burden: Approximately 16
firms manufacture or import non-fullsize baby cribs and are subject to the
recordkeeping requirements. The
Commission staff estimates that the
recordkeeping will take five hours per
firm for obtaining the information from
existing sales and distribution data. The
annualized cost to respondents for the
burden for collection of information is
approximately $2,222. This estimated
cost to respondents is based on 80 hours
(16 firms × 5 hours each) multiplied by
a cost of $27.78 per hour (Bureau of
Labor Statistics, Total Compensation,
All workers, goods-producing
industries, Sales and office, September
2009, Table 9) or $2,222.40, which we
have rounded down to $2,222.
The cost to the government (wages
and benefits) for 8 hours staff time to
review the information (1⁄2 hour per
firm) is approximately $655. Assuming
that the employee reviewing the records
will be a GS–14 level employee, the
average hourly wage rate for a mid-level
GS–14 employee in the Washington, DC
metropolitan area, effective as of
January 2010, is $57.33. This represents
70 percent of total compensation
(Bureau of Labor Statistics, March 2010,
percentage wages and salaries for all
civilian management, professional, and
related employees, Table 1). Adding an
additional 30 percent for benefits brings
average hourly compensation for a midrange GS–14 employee to $81.89. Thus,
8 hours multiplied against an hourly
compensation figure of $81.89 results in
an estimated cost to the government of
$655.12, which we have rounded down
to $655.
Dated: June 22, 2010.

ACTION:
Notice.
SUMMARY: The Consumer Product Safety
Commission (‘‘CPSC’’ or ‘‘Commission’’)
is announcing an opportunity for public
comment on the proposed collection of
certain information by the agency.
Under the Paperwork Reduction Act of
1995 (‘‘the PRA’’), Federal agencies are
required to publish notice in the
Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information,
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information, and
to allow 60 days for public comment in
response to the notice. This notice
solicits comments on a proposed
collection of information on
recordkeeping requirements under the
safety regulations for full-size baby
cribs.
DATES: Submit written or electronic
comments on the collection of
information by August 27, 2010.
ADDRESSES: Written comments should
be captioned ‘‘Proposed Collection—
Full-Size Cribs’’ and sent by e-mail to
cpsc-os@cpsc.gov. Comments may also
be sent by facsimile to (301) 504–0127,
or by mail to the Office of the Secretary,
Consumer Product Safety Commission,
4330 East West Highway, Bethesda,
Maryland 20814.
FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT:
Linda L. Glatz, Division of Policy and
Planning, Office of Information

lglatz@cpsc.gov.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501–3520), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from the
Office of Management and Budget
(‘‘OMB’’) for each collection of
information they conduct or sponsor.
‘‘Collection of information’’ is defined in
44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR 1320.3(c)
and includes agency requests or
requirements that members of the public
submit reports, keep records, or provide
information to a third party. Section
3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A)) requires Federal agencies
to provide a 60-day notice in the
Federal Register concerning each
proposed collection of information
including each proposed extension of an
existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB
for approval. To comply with this
requirement, the CPSC is publishing
notice of the proposed collection of
information set forth in this document.
With respect to the following
collection of information, the CPSC
invites comments on these topics: (1)
Whether the proposed collection of
PO 00000
Frm 00010

information is necessary for the proper
performance of CPSC’s functions,
including whether the information will
have practical utility; (2) the accuracy of
CPSC’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 respondents, including through the
use of automated collection techniques,
when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology.
Title: Requirements for Full-Size Baby
Cribs—16 CFR part 1508 and 16 CFR
1500.18(a)(13) (OMB Control Number
3041–0013—Extension). The safety
regulations for full-size baby cribs (also
referred to as ‘‘full-size cribs’’) are
codified at 16 CFR part 1508 and 16
CFR 1500.18(a)(13). These regulations
were issued to reduce hazards of
strangulation, suffocation, pinching,
bruising, laceration, and other injuries
associated with full-size cribs. (Full-size
cribs have specific interior dimensions,
28 ± 5⁄8 inches (71 ± 1.6 centimeters)
wide by 523⁄8 ± 5⁄8 inches (133 ± 1.6
centimeters) long). The regulations
prescribe performance, design, and
labeling requirements for full-size cribs.
They also require manufacturers and
importers of those products to maintain
sales records for a period of three years
after the manufacture or importation of
full-size cribs. If any full-size cribs
subject to provisions of 16 CFR
1500.18(a)(13) and part 1508 fail to
comply in a manner to warrant a recall,
the required records can be used by the
manufacturer or importer and by the
Commission to identify those persons
and firms who should be notified of the
recall. The Commission will consider all
comments received in response to this
notice before requesting approval of this
collection of information from OMB.
Estimated Burden: Approximately 75
firms manufacture or import full-size
baby cribs and are subject to the
recordkeeping requirements. The
Commission staff estimates that the
recordkeeping will take five hours per
firm for obtaining the information from
existing sales and distribution data. The
annualized cost to respondents for the
burden of collection of information is
$10,417.50 based on 375 hours (75 firms
× 5 hours each) multiplied by a cost of
$27.78 per hour (Bureau of Labor
Statistics, Total Compensation, All
workers, goods-producing industries,
Sales and office, September 2009, Table
9).
The cost to the government (wages
and benefits) for 37.5 hours staff time to

28JNN1
Federal Register / Vol. 75, No. 123 / Monday, June 28, 2010 / Notices
review the information (1⁄2 hour per
firm) is approximately $3,071.
Assuming that the employee reviewing
the records will be a GS–14 level
employee, the average hourly wage rate
for a mid-level GS–14 employee in the
Washington, DC metropolitan area,
effective as of January 2010, is $57.33.
This represents 70 percent of total
compensation (Bureau of Labor
Statistics, March 2010, percentage
wages and salaries for all civilian
management, professional, and related
employees, Table 1). Adding an
additional 30 percent for benefits brings
average hourly compensation for a midrange GS–14 employee to $81.89. Thus,
37.5 hours multiplied against an hourly
compensation figure of $81.89 results in
an estimated cost to the government of
$3,070.87, which we have rounded up
to $3,071.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), Federal
agencies must obtain approval from the Office of Management and Budget
(``OMB'') for each collection of information they conduct or sponsor.
``Collection of information'' is defined in 44 U.S.C. 3502(3) and 5 CFR
1320.3(c) and includes agency requests or requirements that members of
the public submit reports, keep records, or provide information to a
third party. Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3506(c)(2)(A))
requires Federal agencies to provide a 60-day notice in the Federal
Register concerning each proposed collection of information including
each proposed extension of an existing collection of information,
before submitting the collection to OMB for approval. To comply with
this requirement, the CPSC is publishing notice of the proposed
collection of information set forth in this document.
With respect to the following collection of information, the CPSC
invites comments on these topics: (1) Whether the proposed collection
of information is necessary for the proper performance of CPSC's
functions, including whether the information will have practical
utility; (2) the accuracy of CPSC's estimate of the burden of the
proposed collection of information, including the validity of the

utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and (4) ways
to minimize the burden of the collection of information on respondents,

Title: Requirements for Full-Size Baby Cribs--16 CFR part 1508 and
16 CFR 1500.18(a)(13) (OMB Control Number 3041-0013--Extension). The
safety regulations for full-size baby cribs (also referred to as
``full-size cribs'') are codified at 16 CFR part 1508 and 16 CFR
1500.18(a)(13). These regulations were issued to reduce hazards of
strangulation, suffocation, pinching, bruising, laceration, and other
injuries associated with full-size cribs. (Full-size cribs have
specific interior dimensions, 28 \5/8\ inches (71 1.6 centimeters) wide by 52\3/8\ \5/8\ inches (133
1.6 centimeters) long). The regulations prescribe
performance, design, and labeling requirements for full-size cribs.
They also require manufacturers and importers of those products to
maintain sales records for a period of three years after the
manufacture or importation of full-size cribs. If any full-size cribs
subject to provisions of 16 CFR 1500.18(a)(13) and part 1508 fail to
comply in a manner to warrant a recall, the required records can be
used by the manufacturer or importer and by the Commission to identify
those persons and firms who should be notified of the recall. The
Commission will consider all comments received in response to this
notice before requesting approval of this collection of information
from OMB.
Estimated Burden: Approximately 75 firms manufacture or import
full-size baby cribs and are subject to the recordkeeping requirements.
The Commission staff estimates that the recordkeeping will take five
hours per firm for obtaining the information from existing sales and
distribution data. The annualized cost to respondents for the burden of
collection of information is $10,417.50 based on 375 hours (75 firms x
5 hours each) multiplied by a cost of $27.78 per hour (Bureau of Labor
Statistics, Total Compensation, All workers, goods-producing
industries, Sales and office, September 2009, Table 9).
The cost to the government (wages and benefits) for 37.5 hours
staff time to
[[Page 36639]]
review the information (\1/2\ hour per firm) is approximately $3,071.
Assuming that the employee reviewing the records will be a GS-14 level
employee, the average hourly wage rate for a mid-level GS-14 employee
in the Washington, DC metropolitan area, effective as of January 2010,
is $57.33. This represents 70 percent of total compensation (Bureau of
Labor Statistics, March 2010, percentage wages and salaries for all
civilian management, professional, and related employees, Table 1).
Adding an additional 30 percent for benefits brings average hourly
compensation for a mid-range GS-14 employee to $81.89. Thus, 37.5 hours
multiplied against an hourly compensation figure of $81.89 results in
an estimated cost to the government of $3,070.87, which we have rounded
up to $3,071.
