###### Consumer Product Safety Commission

# AGENCY:

Consumer Product Safety Commission. 

# ACTION:

Notice. 

# SUMMARY:

                        As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.                               ( print page 21374)                            Chapter 35), the Consumer Product Safety Commission requests comments on a proposed extension of approval through August 31, 2004, of information collection requirements in the safety regulations for non-full-size cribs codified at 16 CFR 1500.18(a)(14) and Part 1509. These regulations were issued to reduce hazards of strangulation, suffocation, pinching, bruising, laceration, and other injuries associated with non-full-size cribs. (A non-full-size crib is a crib having an interior length greater than 55 inches or smaller than 49                        3/4                         inches; or an interior width greater than 30                        5/8                         inches or smaller than 25                        3/8                         inches; or both.) The regulations prescribe performance, design, and labeling requirements for non-full-size cribs. They also require manufacturers and importers of those products to maintain sales records for a period of three years after the manufacture or importation of non-full-size cribs. If any non-full-size cribs subject to provisions of 16 CFR 1500.18(a)(14) and Part 1509 fail to comply in a manner severe enough to warrant a recall, the required records can be used by the manufacturer or importer and by the Commission to identify those persons and firms who should be notified of the recall. The Commission will consider all comments received in response to this notice before requesting approval of this collection of information from the Office of Management and Budget.                     

# DATES:

Written comments must be received by the Office of the Secretary not later than June 29, 2001.
