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 COPPGP, which provides funding
to eligible state, local and tribal
governments to reduce deaths and
injuries from carbon monoxide
poisoning.
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

Act) authorizes CPSC to provide
funding for the Carbon Monoxide
Poisoning Prevention Grant Program

used for federal grants, as well as up to
six additional attachments specific to
COPPGP. 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 COPPGP provides
eligible state, local, and tribal
governments with funding to purchase
and install carbon monoxide alarms and
to develop training and public
education programs in accordance with
15 U.S.C. 2090(e). The information
collected through the application for
COPPGP grants is used to determine
eligibility and to provide funding to
reduce deaths and injuries from carbon
monoxide poisoning.
Affected Public: State, Local or Tribal
or U.S. Territory Government.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
CPSC expects up to 35 respondents
annually.
Frequency: Annual.
Total Estimated Annual Burden: To
apply for the COPPGP, in addition to
completing common forms,3 an
applicant would typically provide six
attachments specific to the grant
program.
• Attachment 1, the introduction,
provides a table of contents and
introduction and is estimated to take
one hour to prepare, on average.
• Attachment 2, legal eligibility,
provides references necessary to support
that the applicant meets the legal
eligibility requirements of the NZB Act
and is estimated to take one hour to
prepare, on average.
• Attachment 3, the work plan,
provides the framework and describes
all aspects of the proposed project and
is estimated to take 40 hours to prepare,
on average.
• Attachment 4, the budget table,
provides a budget narrative and table for
the 2-year project schedule and is
estimated to take 10 hours to prepare,
on average.
• Attachment 5, cost share, is an
additional narrative documenting cost
share on the budget (not required for
tribal governments) and is estimated to
take five hours to prepare, on average.
• Attachment 6, the indirect cost rate
agreement, substantiates indirect costs
or government-wide, for the same purpose. See
https://pra.digital.gov/clearance-types/.

Information—Non-Construction (OMB No. 4040–
0006), SF–424B Assurances—Non-Construction
Programs (OMB No. 4040–0007), Project Abstract

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.

Jkt 265001
that the NZB Act states may be
reimbursed as permissible
administrative costs and is estimated to
take one hour to prepare, on average.
CPSC estimates it would take the
applicant approximately 58 hours to
compile attachments 1–6, except for
tribal governments which would take
approximately 53 hours because
attachment 5 is not required. CPSC
expects to receive 35 grant applications
that utilize the attachments described,
for a total burden hour estimate of 2,030
hours (58 hours per application × 35
applications). The actual burden may be
slightly lower depending on the number
of tribal government applications.
However, to estimate the maximum
burden, these estimates assume all
applications to be non-tribal
government 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 $127,728 ($62.92 per
hour × 2,030 hours = $127,727.60).
Based on this analysis, the collection of
information would impose a total
burden to applicants of 2,030 hours at
a cost of $127,728.
Request for Comments:
CPSC requests that interested parties
submit comments regarding this
proposed information collection (see the

Total Estimated Annual Burden: To apply for the COPPGP, in addition
to completing common forms,\3\ an applicant would typically provide six
attachments specific to the grant program.

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 introduction, provides a table of
contents and introduction and is estimated to take one hour to prepare,
on average.
Attachment 2, legal eligibility, provides references
necessary to support that the applicant meets the legal eligibility
requirements of the NZB Act and is estimated to take one hour to
prepare, on average.
Attachment 3, the work plan, provides the framework and
describes all aspects of the proposed project and is estimated to take
40 hours to prepare, on average.
Attachment 4, the budget table, provides a budget
narrative and table for the 2-year project schedule and is estimated to
take 10 hours to prepare, on average.
Attachment 5, cost share, is an additional narrative
documenting cost share on the budget (not required for tribal
governments) and is estimated to take five hours to prepare, on
average.
Attachment 6, the indirect cost rate agreement,
substantiates indirect costs that the NZB Act states may be reimbursed
as permissible administrative costs and is estimated to take one hour
to prepare, on average.
CPSC estimates it would take the applicant approximately 58 hours
to compile attachments 1-6, except for tribal governments which would
take approximately 53 hours because attachment 5 is not required. CPSC
expects to receive 35 grant applications that utilize the attachments
described, for a total burden hour estimate of 2,030 hours (58 hours
per application x 35 applications). The actual burden may be slightly
lower depending on the number of tribal government applications.
However, to estimate the maximum burden, these estimates assume all
applications to be non-tribal government 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 $127,728 ($62.92 per hour x 2,030 hours = $127,727.60).
Based on this analysis, the collection of information would impose a
total burden to applicants of 2,030 hours at a cost of $127,728.
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
