SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
Title: Core Principles and Other
Requirements for Swap Execution
Facilities (OMB Control No. 3038–
0074). This is a request for revision of
a currently approved information
collection.
Abstract: Section 5h to the
Commodity Exchange Act (‘‘CEA’’) sets
forth the requirements concerning the
registration and operation of swap
execution facilities (‘‘SEFs’’), which the
Commission has implemented in part 37
of its regulations. These information
collections are needed for the
Commission to ensure that SEFs comply
with these requirements. Among other
requirements, part 37 of the
Commission’s regulations imposes SEF
registration requirements for a trading
platform or system, obligates SEFs to
provide transaction confirmations to
swap counterparties, and requires SEFs
to comply with 15 core principles.
Collection 3038–0074 was created in
response to the part 37 regulatory
requirements for SEFs.
On December 26, 2024, the
Commission published in the Federal
Register notice of the proposed
extension of this information collection
and provided 60 days for public
comment on the proposed extension, 89
FR 105012 (‘‘60-Day Notice’’). The
Commission did not receive any
relevant comments on the 60-Day
Notice.
Burden Statement: The Commission
is revising its estimate of the burden for
this collection for SEFs. The respondent
burden for this collection is estimated to
be as follows: 2
Estimated Number of Respondents:
20.
Estimated Average Burden Hours per
Respondent: 775 (rounded).
Estimated Total Annual Burden
Hours: 15,499.
Frequency of Collection: On occasion.
There are no capital costs or operating
and maintenance costs associated with
this collection.
2 At the 60-Day Notice stage, the Commission
estimated the total burden at 15,275 hours for 20
respondents. Based upon further review by
Commission staff, the Commission has updated its
burden estimates as shown above.

As required by the Paperwork
Reduction Act of 1995, the Consumer
Product Safety Commission (CPSC or
Commission) requests comments on a
request for approval from the Office of
Management and Budget (OMB) for a
new information collection. The
proposed collection is for an application
by which potential grant recipients may
request funding under CPSC’s Pool
Safely Grant Program (PSGP). The PSGP
provides funds for state, local and tribal
governments for education, training and
enforcement of pool safety requirements
intended to save lives from drowning in
swimming pools and spas. Before CPSC
may collect this information from the
public, it must solicit public comment
on this proposed collection of

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Under the
Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44
U.S.C. 3501–3521), before an agency
submits a proposed collection of
information to OMB for approval, it
must first publish a document in the
Federal Register providing a 60-day
comment period and otherwise consult
with members of the public and affected
agencies concerning the proposed
collection of information. In this notice
we provide the estimated burden
associated with applications for grants
from PSGP, which provides funding to
eligible state, local and tribal
governments for enforcement and
educational programs to reduce deaths
and injuries from drowning and drain
entrapment incidents in swimming
pools and spas.
Under the PRA, an agency must
publish the following information:
• A title for the collection of
information;
• A summary of the collection of
information;
• A brief description of the need for
the information and the proposed use of
the information;
• A description of the likely
respondents and proposed frequency of
response to the collection of
information;

• An estimate of the burden that will
result from the collection of
information; and
• Notice that comments may be
submitted to the agency and OMB.
44 U.S.C. 3507(a)(1)(D). In accordance
with this requirement, the Commission
provides the following information: 1
Title: Pool Safely Grant Program
Application.
OMB Number: New.
Type of Request: New information
collection request.
Type of Review Requested: Regular.
Requested Expiration Date of
Approval: Three years from date of
approval.
Summary of the Collection of
Information: The Virginia Graeme Baker
Pool and Spa Safety Act (VGB Act)
authorizes CPSC to grant funding for the
PSGP. 15 U.S.C. 8004–8008. The PSGP
provides two-year grants to eligible
state, local or tribal governments to
reduce deaths and injuries from
drowning and drain entrapment
incidents in swimming pools and spas.
The grant awards can range from
$50,000 to $400,000 per applicant.
Prospective applicants will be able to
access the grant application on
Grants.gov and apply electronically
through GrantSolutions. Applicants will
be required to complete common forms 2
used for federal grants, as well as up to
six additional attachments specific to
PSGP. Awards are posted to the CPSC’s
website and via press release.
Description of the Need for the
Information and Proposed Use of the
Information: The PSGP is part of CPSC’s
national campaign to prevent drowning
and drain entrapment. Drowning is one
of the leading causes of death among
young children.3 The information
collected through the application for
PSGP grants is used to determine
eligibility and to provide funding to
reduce deaths and injuries from
drowning and drain entrapment
incidents in swimming pools and spas.
Funding can be requested for
enforcement and for education in
accordance with 15 U.S.C. 8004(d).
Affected Public: State, Local or Tribal
or U.S. Territory Government
Estimated Number of Respondents:
We expect up to 20 respondents
annually.
Frequency: Annual.
Total Estimated Annual Burden: To
apply for the PSGP, in addition to
completing common forms,4 an
applicant would typically provide six
attachments specific to the grant
program.
• Attachment 1, the project narrative,
provides a description of community
needs and is estimated to take 20 hours
to prepare, on average.
• Attachment 2, the budget narrative,
presents each budget category with an
explanation of each line item and is
estimated to take 10 hours to prepare,
on average.
• Attachment 3, the schedule, is a
multi-year project schedule/timeline
and is estimated to take six hours to
prepare, on average.
• Attachment 4, the staffing plan,
includes a narrative that describes and
identifies each program staff member
with the amount of time for the grant
program funded work and is estimated
to take six hours to prepare, on average.
• Attachment 5, legal eligibility,
includes references necessary to support
that the applicant meets the legal
eligibility requirements of the VGB Act
for swimming pools and spas and is
estimated to take one hour to prepare,
on average.
• Attachment 6, the indirect cost rate
agreement, substantiates indirect costs
that may be reimbursed as permissible
administrative costs as stated in the
VGB Act and is estimated to take one
hour to prepare, on average.
CPSC estimates it would take the
applicant approximately 44 hours to
complete attachments 1–6. CPSC
expects to receive 20 grant applications
that utilize the attachments described,
for a total burden hour estimate of 880
hours (44 hours per application × 20
applications).
Total Estimated Annual Burden Cost:
CPSC estimates the compensation for
the creation and compilation of
attachments 1–6 is $62.92 per hour (U.S.
Bureau of Labor Statistics, ‘‘Employer
Costs for Employee Compensation,’’
September 2024, total compensation for
state and local government workers:
https://www.bls.gov/news.release/
archives/ecec_12172024.pdf). Therefore,
the estimated annual cost of the burden
requirements is $55,370 ($62.92 per

collection and can be used by two or more agencies,
or government-wide, for the same purpose. See
https://pra.digital.gov/clearance-types/.

4 The common forms include: SF–424A Budget
Information—Non-Construction (OMB No. 4040–
0006), SF–424B Assurances—Non-Construction
Programs (OMB No. 4040–0007), Project Abstract
Summary (OMB No. 4040–0019), SF–424
Application for Federal Assistance (OMB No. 4040–
0020), and SF–LLL Disclosure of Lobbying
Activities (OMB No. 4040–0013). To avoid double
counting, the estimated burden for this collection
does not include burden approved under these
common forms.

hour × 880 hours = $55,369.60). Based
on this analysis, the collection of
information would impose a total
burden to applicants of 880 hours at a
cost of $55,370.
Request for Comments:
CPSC requests that interested parties
submit comments regarding this
proposed information collection (see the
ADDRESSES section at the beginning of
this notice). Pursuant to 44 U.S.C.
3506(c)(2)(A), the Commission
specifically invites comments on:
• Whether the proposed collection of
information is necessary for the proper
performance of CPSC’s functions,
including whether the information will
have practical utility;
• The accuracy of CPSC’s estimate of
the burden of the proposed collection of
information;
• Ways to enhance the quality, utility,
and clarity of the information the
Commission proposes to collect; and
• Ways to minimize the burden of the
collection of information on
respondents, including through the use
of automated collection techniques
when appropriate, and other forms of
information technology.

to completing common forms,\4\ an applicant would typically provide six
attachments specific to the grant program.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\4\ The common forms include: SF-424A Budget Information--Non-
Construction (OMB No. 4040-0006), SF-424B Assurances--Non-
Construction Programs (OMB No. 4040-0007), Project Abstract Summary
(OMB No. 4040-0019), SF-424 Application for Federal Assistance (OMB
No. 4040-0020), and SF-LLL Disclosure of Lobbying Activities (OMB
No. 4040-0013). To avoid double counting, the estimated burden for
this collection does not include burden approved under these common
forms.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Attachment 1, the project narrative, provides a
description of community needs and is estimated to take 20 hours to
prepare, on average.
Attachment 2, the budget narrative, presents each budget
category with an explanation of each line item and is estimated to take
10 hours to prepare, on average.
Attachment 3, the schedule, is a multi-year project
schedule/timeline and is estimated to take six hours to prepare, on
average.
Attachment 4, the staffing plan, includes a narrative that
describes and identifies each program staff member with the amount of
time for the grant program funded work and is estimated to take six
hours to prepare, on average.
Attachment 5, legal eligibility, includes references
necessary to support that the applicant meets the legal eligibility
requirements of the VGB Act for swimming pools and spas and is
estimated to take one hour to prepare, on average.
Attachment 6, the indirect cost rate agreement,
substantiates indirect costs that may be reimbursed as permissible
administrative costs as stated in the VGB Act and is estimated to take
one hour to prepare, on average.
CPSC estimates it would take the applicant approximately 44 hours
to complete attachments 1-6. CPSC expects to receive 20 grant
applications that utilize the attachments described, for a total burden
hour estimate of 880 hours (44 hours per application x 20
applications).
Total Estimated Annual Burden Cost: CPSC estimates the compensation
for the creation and compilation of attachments 1-6 is $62.92 per hour
(U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, ``Employer Costs for Employee
Compensation,'' September 2024, total compensation for state and local
government workers: https://www.bls.gov/news.release/archives/ecec_12172024.pdf). Therefore, the estimated annual cost of the burden
requirements is $55,370 ($62.92 per
[[Page 11731]]
hour x 880 hours = $55,369.60). Based on this analysis, the collection
of information would impose a total burden to applicants of 880 hours
at a cost of $55,370.
