. **SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  A. Background

Section 104(B) of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA), requires the CPSC to promulgate consumer product safety standards for durable infant or toddler products. On June 21, 2010, in compliance with the CPSIA, the Commission published in the Federal Register a safety standard for infant walkers that incorporated by reference the voluntary standard for infant walkers issued by ASTM International, ASTM F977–07, with some modifications to further reduce the risk of injury associated with infant walkers. The rule became effective on December 21, 2010.

B. Estimated Burden

Sections 8.1and 9.1 of the voluntary standard ASTM F977–07, which is now a mandatory standard, contain requirements for marking, labeling, and instructional literature that are disclosure requirements, thus falling within the definition of ‘‘collections of information.’’ 5 CFR 1320.3(c). Section 8.1 of ASTM F977–07 requires:

• The name and the place of business (city, state, and mailing address, including zip code) and/or telephone number of the manufacturer, importer distributor, or seller; and

• A code mark or other means that identifies the date (month and year, as a minimum) of manufacture.

Section 9.1 of ASTM F977–07 requires infant walkers to be provided with easy to read instructions regarding assembly, maintenance, cleaning, and

use.

There are 16 known firms supplying infant walkers to the U.S. market. All 16 firms are assumed to already use labels on both their products and their packaging, but they might need to make some modifications to their existing labels. The estimated time required to make these modifications is about 1 hour per model. Each of these firms supplies an average of four different models of infant walkers; therefore, the estimated burden hours associated with labels is 1 hour × 16 firms × 4 models per firm = 64 annual hours.

Section 9.1 of ASTM F977–07 requires instructions to be supplied with the product. This is a practice that is usual and customary with infant walkers. These are products that generally require some installation and maintenance instructions, and any products sold without such information would not be able to successfully compete with products that provide this information. Therefore, because the CPSC is unaware of infant walkers that: (a) generally require some installation, but (b) lack any instructions to the user about such installation, there are no burden hours associated with the instruction requirement in section 9.1 because any burden associated with supplying instructions with infant walkers would be ‘‘usual and customary’’ and not within the definition of ‘‘burden’’ under OMB’s regulations.

CPSC staff estimates that hourly compensation for the time required to create and update labels is $27.12 (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, ‘‘Employer


### 23545 Federal Register / Vol. 78, No. 76 / Friday, April 19, 2013 / Notices

Costs for Employee Compensation,’’ December 2012, Table 9, total compensation for all sales and office workers in goods-producing private industries: http://www.bls.gov/ncs/ ). Therefore, the estimated annual cost associated with the proposed requirements is $1,736 ($27.12 per hour

× 64 hours = $1,736). C. Request for Comments

The Commission solicits written comments from all interested persons about the proposed collection of information. The Commission specifically solicits information relevant to the following topics:

• Whether the collection of information described above is necessary for the proper performance of the Commission’s functions, including whether the information would have practical utility;

• Whether the estimated burden of the proposed collection of information is accurate;

• Whether the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected could be enhanced; and

• Whether the burden imposed by the collection of information could be minimized by use of automated, electronic or other technological collection techniques, or other forms of information technology.

Dated: April 16, 2013. Todd A. Stevenson, Secretary, Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The Office of Management and Budget (OMB) previously approved the collection of information under control number 3041–0143. OMB’s most recent extension of approval will expire on July 31, 2013. 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.

**SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION :**  A. Background
The Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA) requires third party testing be conducted by a third party conformity assessment body for any children’s product, that is subject to a children’s product safety rule, before importing for consumption or warehousing or distributing in commerce. The CPSIA allows accreditation of third party conformity assessment bodies to be conducted either by the Commission or by an independent accreditation organization designated by the Commission, and requires that the Commission maintain on its Web site an up-to-date list of entities that have been accredited to assess conformity with children’s product safety rules. With the exception of firewalled third party conformity assessment bodies, the Commission has chosen to accept the accreditation of third party conformity assessment bodies that meet accreditation requirements of an independent accreditation organization.

In order to assess a third party conformity assessment body’s qualifications for acceptance by CPSC, information related to location, accreditation, and ownership must be collected from third party conformity assessment bodies. The CPSC uses an online collection form, CPSC Form 223, to gather information from third party conformity assessment bodies voluntarily seeking acceptance by CPSC. The information collected relates to location, accreditation, and ownership. The Commission staff uses this information to assess:

• A third party conformity assessment body’s status as either an independent third party conformity assessment body, a government-owned or government-controlled conformity assessment body, or a firewalled conformity assessment body;

• Qualifications for acceptance by CPSC to test for compliance to specified children’s product safety rules; and

• Eligibility for acceptance on the CPSC Web site. The Commission recently published a final rule (16 CFR part 1112) regarding the requirements for third party conformity assessment bodies in the Federal Register on March 12, 2013, which will become effective on June 10, 2013. Once 16 CFR part 1112 is in effect it will require the collection of information in CPSC Form 223:

• Upon initial application by the third party conformity assessment body for acceptance by CPSC;
