SUPPLEMENTAL INFORMATION: In the Federal Register of October 4, 2012 and October 17, 2012 (77 FR 60686, 77 FR 63800), the Consumer Product Safety Commission published a notice in accordance with provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) to announce the agency’s intention to seek extension of tkelley on DSK3SPTVN1PROD with SUMMARY: VerDate Mar<15>2010 06:31 Dec 22, 2012 Jkt 229001 approval of the collection of information in the Safety Standard for Automatic Residential Garage Door Operators (16 CFR Part 1211). No comments were received in response to that notice. Therefore, by publication of this notice, the Commission announces that it has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for extension of approval of that collection of information without change. The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101608, 104 Stat. 3110) requires all automatic residential garage door openers manufactured after January 1, 1993, to comply with the entrapment protection requirements of UL Standard 325 that were in effect on January 1, 1992. In 1992, the Commission codified the entrapment protection provisions of UL Standard 325 in effect on January 1, 1992, as the Safety Standard for Automatic Residential Garage Door Operators, 16 CFR Part 1211, Subpart A. Certification regulations implementing the standard require manufacturers, importers, and private labelers of garage door operators subject to the standard to test their products for compliance with the standard, and to maintain records of that testing. Those regulations are codified at 16 CFR Part 1211, Subparts B and C. The Commission uses the records of testing and other information required by the certification regulations to determine that automatic residential garage door operators subject to the standard comply with its requirements. The Commission also uses this information to obtain corrective actions if garage door operators fail to comply with the standard in a manner that creates a substantial risk of injury to the public. We estimate that about 23 firms are subject to the testing and recordkeeping requirements of the certification regulations. We estimate that each respondent will spend 40 hours annually on the collection of information, for a total of about 920 hours. The estimated total annual cost to industry is approximately $25,429, based on 920 hours x $27.64 (Bureau of Labor Statistics, total compensation for all sales and office workers in goodsproducing private industries: https:// www.bls.gov/ncs).

No comments were received in response to that notice. The Safety Standard for Omnidirectional Citizens Band Base Station Antennas establishes performance requirements for omnidirectional citizens band base station antennas to reduce unreasonable risks of death and injury that may result if an antenna contacts overhead power lines while being erected or removed from its site. Certification regulations implementing the standard require manufacturers, importers, and private labelers of antennas subject to the standard to test antennas for compliance with the standard and to maintain records of that testing. The records of testing and other information required by the certification regulations allow the Commission to determine that antennas subject to the standard comply with its requirements. This information would also enable the Commission to obtain corrective actions if omnidirectional citizens band base station antennas failed to comply with the standard in a manner which creates a substantial risk of injury to the public. We estimate that about five firms manufacture or import citizens band base station antennas subject to the standard. We estimate that the certification regulations will impose an average annual burden of about 220 hours on each of those firms. That burden will result from conducting the testing required by the regulations and maintaining records of the results of that testing. The total annual burden imposed by the regulations on manufacturers and importers of citizens band base station antennas is approximately 1,100 hours. The hourly wage for the testing and recordkeeping required to conduct the testing and maintain records required by the regulations is approximately $61.75 (Bureau of Labor Statistics: total compensation for management, professional, and related workers in goods-producing private industries: https://www.bls.gov/ncs), for an estimated annual cost to the industry of $67,925.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In the Federal Register of October 4, 2012, and October, 17, 2012, (77 FR 60684, 77 FR 63799) the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC or Commission) published a notice in accordance with provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) to announce the CPSC’s intention to seek PO 00000 Frm 00037 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 extension of approval of collections of information in the flammability standards for children’s sleepwear and implementing regulations. No comments were received in response to that notice. Therefore, by publication of this notice, the Commission announces that it has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for extension of approval of that collection of information without change. The standards and regulations are codified as the Standard for the Flammability of Children’s Sleepwear: Sizes 0 Through 6X, 16 CFR part 1615; and the Standard for the Flammability of Children’s Sleepwear: Sizes 7 Through 14, 16 CFR part 1616. The flammability standards and implementing regulations prescribe requirements for testing and recordkeeping by manufacturers and importers of children’s sleepwear subject to the standards. The information in the records required by the regulations allows the Commission to determine if items of children’s sleepwear comply with the applicable standard. This information also enables the Commission to obtain corrective actions if items of children’s sleepwear fail to comply with the applicable standard in a manner that creates a substantial risk of injury. We estimate that about 83 firms manufacture or import products subject to the two children’s sleepwear flammability standards. These firms may perform an estimated 2,000 tests each, which take up to 3 hours per test. We estimate that these standards and implementing regulations will impose an average annual burden of about 6,000 hours on each of those firms (2,000 tests × 3 hours). That burden will result from conducting the testing required by the standards and maintaining records of the results of that testing mandated by the implementing regulations. The total annual burden imposed by the standards and regulations on all manufacturers and importers of children’s sleepwear will be about 498,000 hours (83 firms × 6,000). The annual cost to the industry is estimated to be $30,751,500, based on an hourly wage of $61.75 (Bureau of Labor Statistics: Total compensation for management, professional, and related workers in goods-producing private industries: https://www.bls.gov/ncs) × 498,000 hours.

agency's intention to seek extension of approval of the collection of 
information required in the Safety Standard for Omnidirectional 
Citizens Band Base Station (16 CFR Part 1204). No comments were 
received in response to that notice.
    The Safety Standard for Omnidirectional Citizens Band Base Station 
Antennas establishes performance requirements for omnidirectional 
citizens band base station antennas to reduce unreasonable risks of 
death and injury that may result if an antenna contacts overhead power 
lines while being erected or removed from its site. Certification 
regulations implementing the standard require manufacturers, importers, 
and private labelers of antennas subject to the standard to test 
antennas for compliance with the standard and to maintain records of 
that testing.
    The records of testing and other information required by the 
certification regulations allow the Commission to determine that 
antennas subject to the standard comply with its requirements. This 
information would also enable the Commission to obtain corrective 
actions if omnidirectional citizens band base station antennas failed 
to comply with the standard in a manner which creates a substantial 
risk of injury to the public.
    We estimate that about five firms manufacture or import citizens 
band base station antennas subject to the standard. We estimate that 
the certification regulations will impose an average annual burden of 
about 220 hours on each of those firms. That burden will result from 
conducting the testing required by the regulations and maintaining

cost to the industry of $67,925.
