Federal Register / Vol. 79, No. 59 / Thursday, March 27, 2014 / Notices 17141 

that have been filed with the 

Commission. The Commission’s last 

updated records indicate that 

approximately 660 firms have active 

continuing guaranties. Because 

continuing guaranties are not required 

to be filed with the Commission, CPSC 

staff rounded the number of firms up to 

1,000. 

The Commission estimates that the 

flammability standards for clothing 

textiles and vinyl plastic film and 

enforcement regulations impose an 

average annual burden of about 101.6 

hours on each of those firms, based on 

an estimate of the time for each firm to 

conduct testing, issue guaranties, and to 

establish and maintain associated 

records. The average annual burden 

hour estimate of 101.6 is based on the 

following assumptions, which are 

based, among other things, on staff’s 

experience with and expertise in testing 

requirements and procedures and staff’s 

review of records relating to guaranties 

that have been filed with the 

Commission: 

• Testing Time—5 hours per test 

series, using either the test and 

conditioning procedures in the 

regulations or alternate methods that are 

now allowed under the 2007 

amendments to the regulations (this was 

applied to all firms for each guaranty, 

even though many firms no longer test 

because the products are exempt by 

virtue of weight or fiber content under 

16 CFR 1610.1(d), or because the firms’ 

experience indicates that the fabrics 

already comply); 

• Guaranties Issued—On average, 20 

new guaranties issued per firm per year 

for new fabrics or garments; 

• Estimated Annual Testing Time per 

Firm—5 hours for testing × 20 

guaranties issued = 100 hours per firm; 

• Estimated Annual Recordkeeping 

per Firm—1 hour to create, record, and 

enter test data into a computerized 

dataset; 20 minutes (= 0.3 hours) for 

annual review/removal of records; 20 

minutes (= 0.3 hours) to respond to one 

CPSC records request per year; for a 

total of 1.6 recordkeeping hours per firm 

(1 hour + .3 hours + .3 hours = 1.6 hours 

per firm); 

• Total Estimated Annual Burden 

Hours per Firm—100 hours Estimated 

Annual Testing Time per Firm + 1.6 

Estimated Annual Recordkeeping hours 

per Firm = 101.6 hours per firm; 

• Estimated Annual Industry 

Burden—101.6 hours per firm × 1,000 

firms issuing guaranties = 101,600 

industry burden hours. 

The total annual industry burden 

imposed by the flammability standards 

for clothing textiles and vinyl plastic 

film and enforcement regulations on 

manufacturers and importers of 

garments, fabrics, and related materials 

is estimated to be about 101,600 hours 

(101.6 hours per firm × 1,000 firms). 

The hourly wage for the testing and 

recordkeeping required by the standards 

is about $61.06 (for management, 

professional, and related occupations in 

goods-producing industries, Bureau of 

Labor Statistics, December 2012), for an 

estimated annual cost to the industry of 

approximately $6.2 million (101,600 × 

$61.06 = $6,203,696.00). The hourly 

wage was updated from the $57.22 

estimate used in the June 14, 2013 

notice (for management, professional, 

and related occupations in goodsproducing industries, Bureau of Labor 

Statistics, June 2009). 

The estimated annual cost of the 

information collection requirements to 

the federal government is approximately 

$4,696, which is based on a total 80 staff 

hours to examine and evaluate the 

information as needed for Compliance 

activities (representing an estimate of 

the actual time required to conduct such 

examination and evaluation in staff’s 

experience). Compliance staff typically 

reviews a subset of the guaranties filed 

and may inspect firms that issue 

guaranties. The estimated annual cost to 

the government is based on a GS–12 

level salaried employee. The average 

hourly wage rate for a mid-level salaried 

GS–12 employee in the Washington, DC 

metropolitan area (effective as of 

January 2011) is $40.80 (GS–12, step 5). 

This represents 69.5 percent of total 

compensation (U.S. Bureau of Labor 

Statistics, ‘‘Employer Costs for 

Employee Compensation,’’ December 

2012, Table 1, percentage of wages and 

salaries for all civilian management, 

professional, and related employees: 

http://www.bls.gov/ncs/). Adding an 

additional 30.5 percent for benefits 

brings average hourly compensation for 

a mid-level salaried GS–12 employee to 

$58.70 ($58.70 hourly compensation × 

80 hours = $4,696.00).
