address the feedback from the public 

and medical community. 

This guidance will be issued to all 

federal facilities that perform diagnostic 

or interventional x-ray procedures. The 

recommendations in this guidance are 

not binding on any agency, but, at an 

agency’s discretion, may be 

incorporated in whole or in part into 

their standard operating procedures or 

orders. Likewise, EPA hopes that the 

states and the private sector will find 

this guidance to be a useful reference, 

but there is no legal obligation for them 

to make use of it in any way; however, 

if followed, this guidance will improve 

the safety of diagnostic and 

interventional imaging.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

Proposed Information Collection 

Activities 

Under the Paperwork Reduction Act 

(PRA), 44 U.S.C. 3501–3520, federal 

agencies must get OMB approval for 

each collection of information they 

conduct, sponsor, or require. 

‘‘Collection of information’’ means 

agency requests or requirements to 

submit reports, keep records, or provide 

information to a third party. 44 U.S.C. 

3502(3); 5 CFR 1320.3(c). As required by 

Section 3506(c)(2)(A) of the PRA, the 

FTC is providing this opportunity for 

public comment before requesting that 

OMB extend the existing PRA clearance 

for the information collection 

requirements associated with the 

Commission’s rules and regulations 

under the Fur Products Labeling Act 

(‘‘Fur Rules’’), 16 CFR part 301 (OMB 

Control Number 3084–0099).1

The FTC invites comments on: (1) 

Whether the proposed collection of 

information is necessary for the proper 

performance of the functions of the 

agency, including whether the 

information will have practical utility; 

(2) the accuracy of the agency’s estimate 

of the burden of the proposed collection 

of information, including the validity of 

the methodology and assumptions used; 

(3) ways to enhance the quality, utility, 

and clarity of the information to be 

collected; and (4) ways to minimize the 

burden of the collection of information 

on those who are to respond. All 

comments must be received on or before 

March 30, 2015. 

Burden Estimates 

Staff’s burden estimates are based on 

data from the Department of Labor’s 

Bureau of Labor Statistics (‘‘BLS’’) and 

data or other input from the Fur 

Industry Council of America. The 

relevant information collection 

requirements in these rules and staff’s 

corresponding burden estimates follow. 

The estimates address the number of 

hours needed and the labor costs 

incurred to comply with the 

requirements. 

The Fur Products Labeling Act (‘‘Fur 

Act’’) 2 prohibits the misbranding and 

false advertising of fur products. The 

Fur Rules establish disclosure 

requirements that assist consumers in 

making informed purchasing decisions, 

and recordkeeping requirements that 

assist the Commission in enforcing the 

Rules. The Rules also provide a 

procedure for exemption from certain 

disclosure provisions under the Fur Act. 

The Commission expects that recent 

amendments to the Fur Act have 

increased the cost of complying with the 

Fur Rules as amended.3 Congress 

eliminated the Commission’s power to 

exempt from the labeling requirements 

items where either the cost of the fur 

trim to the manufacturer or the 

manufacturer’s selling price for the 

finished product is less than $150.4 As 

a result, more garments are now subject 

to the Fur Act and Rules, which will 

impose higher recordkeeping and 

labeling costs on manufacturers, 

importers, and retailers. 

Estimated annual hours burden: 

249,541 hours (64,440 hours for 

recordkeeping + 185,101 hours for 

disclosure). 

Recordkeeping: The Fur Rules require 

that retailers, manufacturers, processors, 

and importers of furs and fur products 

keep certain records in addition to those 

they may keep in the ordinary course of 

business. Staff estimates that 1,230 

retailers incur an average recordkeeping 

burden of about 18 hours per year 

(22,140 hours total); 90 manufacturers 

incur an average recordkeeping burden 

of about 60 hours per year (5,400 hours 

total); and 1,230 importers of furs and 

fur products incur an average 

recordkeeping burden of 30 hours per 

year (36,900 hours total). The combined 

recordkeeping burden for the industry is 

approximately 64,440 hours annually. 

Disclosure: Staff estimates that 1,320 

respondents (90 manufacturers + 1,230 

retail sellers of fur garments) each 

require an average of 30 hours per year 

to determine label content (39,600 hours 

total), and an average of ten hours per 

year to draft and order labels (13,200 

hours total). Staff estimates that the total 

number of garments subject to the fur 

labeling requirements annually is 

approximately 1,610,000.5 Staff 

estimates that for approximately 50 

percent of these garments (805,000) 

labels are attached manually, requiring 

approximately four minutes per garment 

for a total of 53,667 hours annually. For 

the remaining 805,000, the process of 

attaching labels is semi-automated and 

requires an average of approximately 

five seconds per item, for a total of 1,118 

hours. Thus, the total burden for 

attaching labels is 54,785 hours, and the 

total burden for labeling garments is 

107,585 hours per year (39,600 hours to 

determine label content + 13,200 hours 

to draft and order labels + 54,785 hours 

to attach labels). 

Staff estimates that the incremental 

burden associated with the Fur Rules’ 

invoice disclosure requirement, beyond 

the time that would be devoted to 

preparing invoices in the absence of the 

Rules, is approximately one minute per 

invoice for garments and thirty seconds 

per invoice for pelts.6 The invoice 

disclosure requirement applies to fur 

garments, which are generally sold 

individually, and fur pelts, which are 

generally sold in groups of at least 50, 

on average. Assuming invoices are 

prepared for sales of 1,610,000 

garments, the invoice disclosure 

requirement entails an estimated burden 

of 26,833 hours (1,610,000 invoices × 

one minute). Based on information from 

the Fur Industry Council of America, 

staff estimates total sales of 8,900,000 

pelts annually. Assuming invoices are 

prepared for sales of 178,000 groups 

(derived from an estimated 8,900,000 

pelts ÷ 50) of imported and domestic 

pelts, the invoice disclosure 

requirement entails an estimated total 

burden of 1,483 hours (178,000 total 

invoices × thirty seconds). Thus, the 

total burden for invoice disclosures is 

28,316 hours. 

Staff estimates that the Fur Rules’ 

advertising disclosure requirements 

impose an average burden of 40 hours 

per year for each of the approximately 

1,230 domestic fur retailers, or a total of 

49,200 hours. 

Thus, staff estimates the total 

disclosure burden to be approximately 

185,101 hours (107,585 hours for 

labeling + 28,316 hours for invoices + 

49,200 hours for advertising). 

Estimated annual cost burden: 

$4,657,902 (solely relating to labor 

costs). The chart below summarizes the 

total estimated costs.

7Per industry sources, most fur labeling is done 

in the United States. This rate is reflective of an 

average domestic hourly wage for such tasks 

performed in the United States, which is derived 

from recent BLS statistics. 8Although items previously exempt from the 

labeling requirements must now be labeled 

regarding their fur content, the Textile and Wool 

Rules, found at 16 CFR part 303 and 16 CFR part 

300, respectively, already required many such items 

to have fiber content labels. Hence, manufacturers 

likely have in place the equipment needed to 

comply with the additional labeling requirements. 

Task Hourly rate Burden hours Labor cost 

Determine label content ............................................................................................. $ 26.00 39,600 $1,029,600 

Draft and order labels ................................................................................................ 17.00 13,200 224,400 

Attach labels .............................................................................................................. 7 10.00 54,785 547,850 

Invoice disclosures .................................................................................................... 17.00 28,316 481,372

Recordkeeping ........................................................................................................... 17.00 64,440 1,095,480 

Total .................................................................................................................... .............................. .............................. 4,657,902 

Staff believes that there are no current 

start-up costs or other capital costs 

associated with the Fur Rules. Because 

the labeling of fur products has been an 

integral part of the manufacturing 

process for decades, manufacturers have 

in place the capital equipment 

necessary to comply with the Rules’ 

labeling requirements.8 Industry sources 

indicate that much of the information 

required by the Fur Act and Rules 

would be included on the product label 

even absent the Rules. Similarly, 

invoicing, recordkeeping, and 

advertising disclosures are tasks 

performed in the ordinary course of 

business so that covered firms would 

incur no additional capital or other nonlabor costs as a result of the Act or the 

Rules.
