24188 Federal Register / Vol. 65, No. 80 / Tuesday, April 25, 2000 / Notices

for the collection of information in those

regulations.

C. Estimated Burden

The Commission staff estimates that

about 1,000 firms that manufacture or

import products subject to the

flammability standards for clothing

textiles and vinyl plastic film issue

guaranties that the products they

produce or import comply with the

applicable standard. The Commission

staff estimates that these standards and

implementing regulations will impose

an average annual burden of about 101.6

hours on each of those firms. That

burden will result from conducting the

testing and maintaining records

required by the implementing

regulations. The total annual burden

imposed by the standards and

regulations on all manufacturers and

importers of clothing textiles and vinyl

plastic film will be about 101,600 hours.

The hourly wage for the testing and

recordkeeping required by the standards

and regulations is about $13.50, for an

estimated annual cost to the industry of

$1,400,000.

D. 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.

CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY

COMMISSION

Submission for OMB Review;

Comment Request—Safety Standard

for Automatic Residential Garage Door

Operators

AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety

Commission.

ACTION: Notice.

SUMMARY: In the Federal Register of

February 9, 2000 (65 FR 6361), the

Consumer Product Safety Commission

published a notice in accordance with

provisions of the Paperwork Reduction

Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. chapter 35) to

announce the agency’s intention to seek

extension of approval of the collection

of information in the Safety Standard for

Automatic Residential Garage Door

Operators (16 CFR part 1211). No

comments were received in response to

that notice. The Commission now

announces that it has submitted to the

Office of Management and Budget a

request for reinstatement of approval of

that collection of information without

change for a period of three years from

the date of approval.

The Consumer Product Safety

Improvement Act of 1990 (Pub. L. 101–

608, 104 Stat. 3110) requires all

automatic residential garage door

openers manufactured after January 1,

1993, to comply with the entrapment

protection requirements of UL Standard

325 that were in effect on January 1,

1992. In 1992, the Commission codified

the entrapment protection provisions of

UL Standard 325 in effect on January 1,

1992, as the Safety Standard for

Automatic Residential Garage Door

Operators, 16 CFR part 1211, Subpart A.

Certification regulations implementing

the standard require manufacturers,

importers and private labelers of garage

door operators subject to the standard to

test their products for compliance with

the standard, and to maintain records of

that testing. Those regulations are

codified at 16 CFR part 1211, subparts

B and C.

The Commission uses the records of

testing and other information required

by the certification regulations to

determine that automatic residential

garage door operators subject to the

standard comply with its requirements.

The Commission also uses this

information to obtain corrective actions

if garage door operators fail to comply

with the standard in a manner which

creates a substantial risk of injury to the

public.
