SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Request
for Renewal of Approval of Collections
of Information. Section 9.1 of ASTM
F977–07 (which has been incorporated
by reference in the safety standard for
infant walkers, 16 CFR part 1216)
requires infant walkers to be provided
with easy-to-read instructions regarding
assembly, maintenance, cleaning, and
use.
There are 16 known firms supplying
infant walkers to the U.S. market. All 16
firms are assumed to use labels already
on both their products and their
packaging, but they might need to make
some modifications to their existing
labels as a result of the mandatory rule.
The estimated time required to make
these modifications is about one hour
per model. Each of these firms supplies
an average of four different models of
infant walkers; therefore, the estimated
burden hours associated with labels is 1
hour × 16 firms × 4 models per firm =
64 annual hours.
Section 9.1 of ASTM F977–07
requires instructions to be supplied
with the product. Supplying
instructions with infant walkers is a
usual and customary practice, as these
products generally require some
assembly, often necessitating
instruction. There are no burden hours
associated with the instruction
requirement in section 9.1 because any
burden associated with supplying
instructions with infant walkers would
be ‘‘usual and customary’’ and not
within the definition of ‘‘burden’’ under
OMB’s regulations.
CPSC staff estimates that hourly
compensation for the time required to
create and update labels is $27.12 (U.S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics, ‘‘Employer
Costs for Employee Compensation,’’
December 2012, Table 9, total
compensation for all sales and office
workers in goods-producing private
industries: https://www.bls.gov/ncs/).
Therefore, the estimated annual cost
associated with the proposed
VerDate Mar<15>2010

requirements is $1,736 ($27.12 per hour
× 64 hours = $1,736).
