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
section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, the
FTC is providing this opportunity for
public comment before requesting that
OMB extend the existing paperwork
clearance for the Funeral Rule, 16 CFR
Part 453 (OMB Control Number 3084–
0025).
The Funeral Rule ensures that
consumers who are purchasing funeral
goods and services have access to
accurate itemized price information so
they can purchase only the funeral
goods and services they want or need.
In particular, the Rule requires a funeral
provider to: (1) Give consumers a copy
they can keep of the funeral provider’s
General Price List (‘‘GPL’’) that itemizes
the goods and services they offer; (2)
show consumers their Casket Price List
(‘‘CPL’’) and their Outer Burial Container
Price List (‘‘OBCPL’’) at the outset of any
discussion of those items or their prices,
and in any event before showing
consumers caskets or burial containers;
(3) provide price information from their
price lists over the telephone; and (4)
give consumers a Statement of Funeral
Goods and Services Selected (‘‘SFGSS’’)
after determining the funeral

arrangements with the consumer (the
‘‘arrangements conference’’). The Rule
requires that funeral providers disclose
this information to consumers and
maintain records to facilitate
enforcement of the Rule.
The estimated burden associated with
the collection of information required
by the Rule is 19,902 hours for
recordkeeping, 101,076 hours for
disclosures, and 39,804 hours for
training, for a total of 160,782 hours.
This estimate is based on the number of
funeral providers (approximately
19,902),1 the number of funerals per
year (approximately 2.4 million),2 and
the time needed to fulfill the
information collection tasks required by
the Rule.
Recordkeeping: The Rule requires that
funeral providers retain copies of price
lists and statements of funeral goods
and services selected by consumers.
Based on a maximum average burden of
one hour per provider per year for this
task, the total burden for the 19,902
providers is 19,902 hours. This estimate
is lower than FTC staff’s 2008 estimate
of 20,300 hours due to a decrease in the
number of funeral providers.
Disclosure: As noted above, the Rule
requires that funeral providers: (1)
Maintain current price lists for funeral
goods and services, (2) provide written
documentation of the funeral goods and
services selected by consumers making
funeral arrangements, and (3) provide
information about funeral prices in
response to telephone inquiries.
1. Maintaining current price lists
requires that funeral providers revise
their price lists from time to time
throughout the year to reflect price
changes. Staff estimates, consistent with
its current clearance, that this task
requires a maximum average burden of
two and one-half hours per provider per
year. Thus, the total burden for 19,902
providers is 49,755 hours.
2. Staff retains its prior estimate that
13% of funeral providers prepare
written documentation of funeral goods
1 The estimated number of funeral providers is
from 2010 data provided on the National Funeral
Directors Association (‘‘NFDA’’) Web site (see
https://www.nfda.org/about-funeral-service-/trendsand-statistics.html).
2 The estimated number of funerals conducted
annually is derived from the National Center for
Health Statistics (‘‘NCHS’’), https://www.cdc.gov/
nchs/. According to NCHS, 2,436,682 deaths
occurred in the United States in 2009, the most
recent year for which final data is available. See
National Vital Statistics Reports, vol. 59, no. 4
‘‘Preliminary Data for 2009,’’ available at https://
www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nvsr/nvsr59/
nvsr59_04.pdf. Staff believes this is a conservative
estimate because not all remains go to a funeral
provider covered by the Rule (e.g., remains sent
directly to a crematory that does not sell urns;
remains donated to a medical school, etc.).
