Campaign Proposed Survey CPSC is authorized under section 5(a) of the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA), 15 U.S.C. 2054(a), to conduct studies and investigations relating to the causes and prevention of deaths, accidents, injuries, illnesses, other health impairments, and economic losses associated with consumer products. Section 5(b) of the CPSA, 15 U.S.C. 2054(b), further provides that CPSC may conduct research, studies, and investigations on the safety of consumer products or test consumer products and develop product safety test methods and testing devices. In October 2018, CPSC issued a report ‘‘Product Instability or Tip-Over Injuries and Fatalities Associated with Televisions, Furniture, and Appliances’’ (2018 Report), which showed that emergency departments across the United States treated an estimated 27,300 television- or furniture stabilityrelated injuries annually in 2015–2017 (8,200 involved televisions or both televisions and furniture and 19,100 involved only furniture).1 The 2018 Report also reviewed death incidents from 2000 through 2017, and found 507 fatalities (342 involved televisions or both televisions and furniture and 165 involved only furniture.) The 2018 Report showed that children account for the vast majority of both fatalities (83%), as well as the majority of estimated non-fatal emergency department-treated injuries (50%) caused by TV/furniture instability. Of child fatalities, 72 percent involved TV tip-over, and 24 percent furniture tipover. To address the hazard associated with TV/furniture tip-overs, as early as 2015, CPSC implemented an information and education campaign called, ‘‘Anchor It!’’ that stressed the importance of safely and securely mounting TVs and furniture to walls with a goal of 1 https://www.cpsc.gov/s3fs-public/Product% 20Instability%20or%20Tip%20Over%20Report% 20Oct%202018_STAMPED.pdf?J6AwbQ.ZwNQKk WQknOKUDi4ur0i.6D73. PO 00000 Frm 00018 Fmt 4703 Sfmt 4703 reducing the number of injuries and deaths due to TV/furniture tip-over.2 CPSC seeks, through the proposed survey, to evaluate consumer awareness or recognition of the ‘‘Anchor It!’’ campaign, consumer comprehension of the risks and remedies of TV/furniture tip over and anchoring, and consumer behavior and attitude change from the ‘‘Anchor It!’’ campaign. The proposed survey will collect data from a sample of approximately 600 parent and non-parent caregivers of children ages 0–5 years to assess their current behaviors about anchoring furniture and/or televisions in homes, their attitudes and beliefs about anchoring, their knowledge of the CPSC and the ‘‘Anchor It!’’ campaign, and their intentions about anchoring in the future. The proposed survey consists of a highly varied national sample. The proposed survey data will enable CPSC to assess individuals’ existing knowledge of anchoring furniture and televisions, and inform recommendations on how to modify the ‘‘Anchor It!’’ campaign to better target and educate parents and non-parent caregivers. Findings that arise from the proposed survey may also be used by CPSC in designing future studies. CPSC has entered into a contract with Fors Marsh Group (FMG) to conduct the proposed survey and collect the data. The National Opinion Research Center (NORC) will program and administer the final survey over the internet. NORC will contact participants electronically via email. The proposed survey will be administered using a secure online platform, and the results from the proposed survey will be accessible only to authorized personnel. Following data collection, FMG will summarize the results and provide a final report, along with the dataset, to CPSC staff. B. Burden Hours The proposed survey will take approximately 20 minutes to complete. We estimate the number of respondents to be 600. We estimate the total annual burden hours for respondents to be 200 hours. The monetized hourly cost is $36.22, as defined by the average total hourly cost to employers for employee compensation for employees across all occupations as of June 2018, reported by the Bureau of Labor Statistics. We estimate the total cost burden to be $7,244 (200 hours × $36.22). The total cost to the federal government for the contract to design and conduct the proposed survey is $210,112. 2 https://www.cpsc.gov/Safety-Education/SafetyEducation-Centers/Tipover-Information-Center/.

However, CPSC staff made a few editorial changes to the survey to fix typographical errors (e.g., revise ‘‘SafeProducts.gov’’ to ‘‘SaferProducts.gov’’), and included a few clarifying questions in the survey, such as whether the children in the home ever climb and/or pull on furniture? (e.g., dressers, bookshelves),’’ and whether the participant ever saw an ad/news story/public service announcement about anchoring furniture. These questions merely serve to make the existing questions in the survey more clear and understandable for participants, and do not otherwise alter or expand the scope of the survey instrument.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the PRA (44 U.S.C. 3501-3520), federal 
agencies must obtain approval from the 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 
proposed surveys.

A. Anchor It! Campaign Proposed Survey

    CPSC is authorized under section 5(a) of the Consumer Product 
Safety Act (CPSA), 15 U.S.C. 2054(a), to conduct studies and 
investigations relating to the causes and prevention of deaths, 
accidents, injuries, illnesses, other health impairments, and economic 
losses associated with consumer products. Section 5(b) of the CPSA, 15 
U.S.C. 2054(b), further provides that CPSC may conduct research, 
studies, and investigations on the safety of consumer products or test 
consumer products and develop product safety test methods and testing 
devices.
    In October 2018, CPSC issued a report ``Product Instability or Tip-
Over Injuries and Fatalities Associated with Televisions, Furniture, 
and Appliances'' (2018 Report), which showed that emergency departments 
across the United States treated an estimated 27,300 television- or 
furniture stability-related injuries annually in 2015-2017 (8,200 
involved televisions or both televisions and furniture and 19,100 
involved only furniture).\1\ The 2018 Report also reviewed death 
incidents from 2000 through 2017, and found 507 fatalities (342 
involved televisions or both televisions and furniture and 165 involved 
only furniture.) The 2018 Report showed that children account for the 
vast majority of both fatalities (83%), as well as the majority of 
estimated non-fatal emergency department-treated injuries (50%) caused 
by TV/furniture instability. Of child fatalities, 72 percent involved 
TV tip-over, and 24 percent furniture tip-over.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    To address the hazard associated with TV/furniture tip-overs, as 
early as 2015, CPSC implemented an information and education campaign 
called, ``Anchor It!'' that stressed the importance of safely and 
securely mounting TVs and furniture to walls with a goal of reducing 
the number of injuries and deaths due to TV/furniture tip-over.\2\ CPSC 
seeks, through the proposed survey, to evaluate consumer awareness or 
recognition of the ``Anchor It!'' campaign, consumer comprehension of 
the risks and remedies of TV/furniture tip over and anchoring, and 
consumer behavior and attitude change from the ``Anchor It!'' campaign.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    \2\ https://www.cpsc.gov/Safety-Education/Safety-Education-Centers/Tipover-Information-Center/.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The proposed survey will collect data from a sample of 
approximately 600 parent and non-parent caregivers of children ages 0-5 
years to assess their current behaviors about anchoring furniture and/
or televisions in homes, their attitudes and beliefs about anchoring, 
their knowledge of the CPSC and the ``Anchor It!'' campaign, and their 
intentions about anchoring in the future. The proposed survey consists 
of a highly varied national sample. The proposed survey data will 
enable CPSC to assess individuals' existing knowledge of anchoring 
furniture and televisions, and inform recommendations on how to modify 
the ``Anchor It!'' campaign to better target and educate parents and 
non-parent caregivers. Findings that arise from the proposed survey may 
also be used by CPSC in designing future studies.
    CPSC has entered into a contract with Fors Marsh Group (FMG) to 
conduct the proposed survey and collect the data. The National Opinion 
Research Center (NORC) will program and administer the final survey 
over the internet. NORC will contact participants electronically via 
email. The proposed survey will be administered using a secure online 
platform, and the results from the proposed survey will be accessible 
only to authorized personnel. Following data collection, FMG will 
summarize the results and provide a final report, along with the 
dataset, to CPSC staff.

B. Burden Hours

    The proposed survey will take approximately 20 minutes to complete. 
We estimate the number of respondents to be 600. We estimate the total 
annual burden hours for respondents to be 200 hours. The monetized 
hourly cost is $36.22, as defined by the average total hourly cost to 
employers for employee compensation for employees across all 
occupations as of June 2018, reported by the Bureau of Labor 
Statistics. We estimate the total cost burden to be $7,244 (200 hours x 
$36.22). The total cost to the federal government for the contract to 
design and conduct the proposed survey is $210,112.

C. Submission to OMB

    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 before submitting 
the collection to OMB for approval. On April 8, 2019, the CPSC 
published a notice of the proposed collection in the Federal Register. 
(84 FR 13912). The CPSC did not receive any comments. However, CPSC 
staff made a few editorial changes to the survey to fix typographical 
errors (e.g., revise ``SafeProducts.gov'' to ``SaferProducts.gov''), 
and included a few clarifying questions in the survey, such as whether 
the children in the home ever climb and/or pull on furniture? (e.g., 
dressers, bookshelves),'' and whether the participant ever saw an ad/
news story/public service announcement about anchoring furniture. These 
questions merely serve to make the existing questions in the survey 
more clear and understandable for participants, and do not otherwise 
alter or expand the scope of the survey instrument. Accordingly, the 
CPSC has submitted the proposed collection to OMB. A copy of the 
proposed survey titled ``PRA Anchor It Survey OMB Submittal'' is 
available at: www.regulations.gov under Docket No. CPSC-2019-0005, 
Supporting and Related Material.
