Agency Information Collection

Futures Products 

AGENCY: Commodity Futures Trading 

Commission.

Paperwork Reduction Act (44 U.S.C. 

3501 et seq.), this notice announces that 

the Information Collection Request (ICR) 

abstracted below has been forwarded to 

the Office of Management and Budget 

(OMB) for review and comment. The 

ICR describes the nature of the 

information collection and its expected 

costs and burden. 

DATES: Comments must be submitted on 

or before December 20, 2010. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION OR A COPY

CONTACT: David Steinberg, Commodity 

Futures Trading Commission, 202–418– 

5102, FAX: 202–418–5527, e-mail: 

dsteinberg@cftc.gov, and refer to OMB 

Control No. 3038–0059. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Title: Part 41 Relating to Security 

Futures Products (OMB Control No. 

3038–0059). This is a request for 

extension of a currently approved 

information collection. 

Abstract: Section 4d(c) of the 

Commodity Exchange Act (CEA), 

7 U.S.C. 6d(c), requires the CFTC to 

consult with the SEC and issue such 

rules, regulations, or orders as are 

necessary to avoid duplicative or 

conflicting regulations applicable to 

firms that are fully registered with the 

SEC as brokers or dealers (brokerdealers) and the CFTC as futures 

commission merchants (FCMs) 

involving provisions of the CEA that 

pertain to the treatment of customer 

funds. The CFTC, jointly with the SEC, 

issued regulations requiring such 

dually-registered firms to make choices 

as to how its customers’ transactions in 

security futures products (SFP) will be 

treated, either as securities transactions 

held in a securities account or as futures 

transactions held in a futures account. 

How an account is treated is important 

in the unlikely event of the insolvency 

of the firm. Only securities accounts 

receive insurance protection under 

provisions of the Securities Investor 

Protection Act. By contrast, only futures 

accounts are subject to the protections 

provided by the segregation 

requirements of the CEA. 

An agency may not conduct or 

sponsor, and a person is not required to 

respond to, a collection of information 

unless it displays a currently valid OMB 

control number. The OMB control 

numbers for the CFTC’s regulations 

were published on December 30, 1981. 

See 46 FR 63035 (Dec. 30, 1981). The 

Federal Register notice with a 60-day 

comment period soliciting comments on 

this collection of information was 

published on September 16, 2010 (75 FR 

56511). 

Burden Statement: The respondent 

burden for this collection is estimated to 

average .59 hours per response. These 

estimates include the time needed to 

review instructions; develop, acquire, 

install, and utilize technology and 

systems for the purposes of collecting, 

validating, and verifying information, 

processing and maintaining information 

and disclosing and providing 

information; adjust the existing ways to 

comply with any previously applicable 

instructions and requirements; train 

personnel to be able to respond to a 

collection of information; and transmit 

or otherwise disclose the information. 

Respondents/Affected Entities: 147. 

Estimated number of responses: 

2,739.90. 

Estimated total annual burden on 

respondents: 1,624.08 hours. 

Frequency of collection: On occasion. 

Send comments regarding the burden 

estimated or any other aspect of the 

information collection, including 

suggestions for reducing the burden, to 

the addresses listed below. Please refer 

to OMB Control No. 3038–0059 in any 

correspondence.

CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY 

COMMISSION 

Third Party Testing for Certain 

Children’s Products; Children’s 

Sleepwear, Sizes 0 Through 6X and 7 

Through 14: Requirements for 

Accreditation of Third Party 

Conformity Assessment Bodies 

AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety 

Commission. 

ACTION: Notice of Requirements. 

SUMMARY: The Consumer Product Safety 

Commission (CPSC or Commission) is 

issuing a notice of requirements that 

provides the criteria and process for 

Commission acceptance of accreditation 

of third party conformity assessment 

bodies for testing of children’s 

sleepwear pursuant to 16 CFR parts 

1615 and 1616, the CPSC regulations 

under the Flammable Fabrics Act (FFA) 

relating to the flammability of children’s 

sleepwear. The Commission is issuing 

this notice of requirements pursuant to 

section 14(a)(3)(B)(vi) of the CPSA, 15 

U.S.C. 2063(a)(3)(B)(vi). 

DATES: Effective Date: The requirements 

for accreditation of third party 

conformity assessment bodies to assess 

conformity with 16 CFR parts 1615 and 

1616 are effective upon publication of 

this notice in the Federal Register. 

FOR FURTHER INFORMATION CONTACT: 

Patricia K. Adair, Director, Division of 

Combustion and Fire Sciences, U.S. 

Consumer Product Safety Commission, 

4330 East West Highway, Bethesda, MD

padair@cpsc.gov. 

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

I. Introduction 

A. Statutory Authority 

Section 14(a)(3)(B)(vi) of the CPSA, as 

added by section 102(a)(2) of the 

Consumer Product Safety Improvement 

Act of 2008 (CPSIA), Public Law 110– 

314, directs the CPSC to establish and 

publish a notice of requirements for 

accreditation of third party conformity 

assessment bodies to assess children’s 

products for conformity with ‘‘other 

children’s product safety rules.’’ Section 

14(f)(1) of the CPSA defines ‘‘children’s 

product safety rule’’ as ‘‘a consumer 

product safety rule under [the CPSA] or 

similar rule, regulation, standard, or ban 

under any other Act enforced by the 

Commission, including a rule declaring 

a consumer product to be a banned 

hazardous product or substance.’’ Under 

section 14(a)(3)(A) of the CPSA, each 

manufacturer (including an importer) or 

private labeler of products subject to 

those regulations must have products 

that are manufactured more than 90 

days after the establishment and Federal 

Register publication of a notice of the 

requirements for accreditation tested by 

a third party conformity assessment 

body accredited to do so, and must issue 

a certificate of compliance with the 

applicable regulations based on that 

testing. The Commission may extend 

the 90-day period by not more than 60 

days if the Commission determines that 

an insufficient number of third party 

conformity assessment bodies have been 

accredited to permit certification for a 

children’s product safety rule. Any 

requests for an extension should contain 

detailed facts showing why an extension 

is necessary. 

Section 14(a)(2) of the CPSA, as added 

by section 102(a)(2) of the CPSIA, 

requires that certification be based on 

testing of sufficient samples of the 

product, or samples that are identical in 

all material respects to the product. The 

Commission also emphasizes that, 

irrespective of certification, the product 

in question must comply with 

applicable CPSC requirements (see, e.g.,
