Consumer Product Safety Commission March 4, 2014 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

In accordance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. chapter 35), the Consumer Product Safety Commission (Commission or CPSC) announces that the Commission has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for extension of approval of a collection of information associated with the CPSC's Safety Standards for Full-Size Baby Cribs and Non-Full-Size Baby Cribs (OMB No. 3041-0147). In the Federal Register of December 24, 2013 (78 FR 77660), the CPSC published a notice to announce the agency's intention to seek extension of approval of the collection of information. One commenter stated that drop-side cribs should not be eliminated because the problem is caused by cheap plastic hardware provided by the manufacturers. That comment is outside the scope of the proposed renewal request, which sought comments on the burden hours associated with recordkeeping requirements in the safety standards. Therefore, by publication of this notice, the Commission announces that CPSC has submitted to the OMB a request for extension of approval of that collection of information, without change.

In accordance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. chapter 35), the Consumer Product Safety Commission (Commission or CPSC) may not conduct or sponsor, and the respondent is not required to respond to, an information collection unless the CPSC displays a currently valid Office of Management and Budget (OMB) control number. As part of the Commission's continuing effort to reduce paperwork and respondent burden, the CPSC invites comments on a proposed request for extension of approval of a collection of information relating to the procedures for the export of noncomplying products (OMB No. 3041-0003). The Commission will consider all comments received in response to this notice before requesting an extension of approval of this collection of information from OMB.
