Rule’s notification requirements would
be followed in any event by most
merchants to meet consumer
expectations regarding timely shipment,
notification of delay, and prompt and
full refunds. Thus, it appears that much
of the time and expense associated with
Rule compliance may not constitute
‘‘burden’’ under the PRA.8
Estimated labor costs. $42,828,173.
FTC staff derived labor costs by
applying appropriate hourly cost figures
to the burden hours described above.
According to the most recent data
available from the Bureau of Labor and
Statistics,9 the mean hourly income for
workers in sales and related occupations
was $21.92/hr. The bulk of the burden
of complying with the MITOR is borne
by clerical personnel along with
assistance from sales personnel. Staff
believes that the mean hourly income
for workers in sales and related
occupations is an appropriate measure
of a direct marketer’s average labor cost
to comply with the Rule. Thus, the total
annual labor cost to new and
established businesses for MITOR
compliance during the three-year period
for which OMB approval is sought
would be approximately $42,828,173
(1,953,840 hours × $21.92/hr.). Relative
to direct industry sales, this total is
negligible.10
Estimated annual non-labor cost
burden: $0 or minimal.
The applicable requirements impose
minimal start-up costs, as businesses
subject to the Rule generally have or
8 Conceivably, in the three years since the FTC’s
most recent clearance request to OMB for this Rule,
many businesses have upgraded the information
management systems needed to comply with the
Rule and to track orders more effectively. These
upgrades, however, were primarily prompted by the
industry’s need to deal with growing consumer
demand for merchandise (resulting, in part, from
increased public acceptance of making purchases
over the telephone and, more recently, the Internet).
Accordingly, most companies now provide updated
order information of the kind required by the Rule
in their ordinary course of business. Under the
OMB regulation implementing the PRA, burden is
defined to exclude any effort that would be
expended regardless of any regulatory requirement.
5 CFR 1320.3(b)(2).
9 See Table 1, National employment and wage
data from the Occupational Employment Statistics
survey by occupation, May 2014, at https://
www.bls.gov/news.release/ocwage.t01.htm.
10 Considering that sales for ‘‘electronic shopping
and mail-order houses’’ grew from $235 billion in
2009 to $348 billion in 2013 (according to
‘‘Estimated Annual Sales of U.S. Retail and Food
Services Firms by Kind of Business: 1992 Through
2013,’’ available at https://www.census.gov/econ/isp/
sampler.php?naicscode=454111&naicslevel=
6?cssp=SERP, staff estimates the annual mail,
Internet, or telephone sales to consumers in the
three-year period for which OMB clearance is
sought will average $461 billion. Thus, the
projected average labor cost for MITOR compliance
by existing and new businesses for that period
would amount to 0.01% of sales.

obtain necessary equipment for other
business purposes, i.e., inventory and
order management, and customer
relations. For the same reason, staff
anticipates printing and copying costs to
be minimal, especially given that mail,
Internet, and telephone order merchants
have increasingly turned to electronic
communications to notify consumers of
delay and to provide cancellation
options. Staff believes that the above
requirements necessitate ongoing,
regular training so that covered entities
stay current and have a clear
understanding of federal mandates, but
that this would be a small portion of,
and subsumed within, the ordinary
training that employees receive apart
from that associated with the
information collected under the Rule.

AGENCY:
The National Institute for
Occupational Safety and Health
(NIOSH) of the Centers for Disease
Control and Prevention (CDC) requests
information for the development of a
test protocol to evaluate the
performance of closed system drugtransfer devices (CSTDs) that adopt aircleaning technologies. CSTDs are
generally available in two design types:
(1) One that uses a physical barrier to
block the unintended release of drug
into the surrounding environment or the
intake of environmental contaminants
into the sterile drug pathway and (2)
one that uses air cleaning or filtration
technologies to prevent the unintended
release of drug into the surrounding
environment or the intake of
environmental contaminants into the
sterile drug pathway. A draft protocol
titled, ‘‘A Vapor Containment
Performance Protocol for Closed System
Transfer Devices Used During Pharmacy
Compounding and Administration of
Hazardous Drugs,’’ was developed by
NIOSH to evaluate how protective the
physical barrier-type CSTD devices
were as an indicator of how effective
they would be at preventing hazardous
drug escape from the closed system.
This RFI seeks information from the
public regarding the feasibility of
developing a protocol applicable to
CSTDs using air cleaning or filtration
technologies and to request information
from stakeholders on this topic.
