25546 Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 101 / Thursday, May 28, 2009 / Notices 

45 This rounded figure is derived from the mean 

hourly earnings shown for lawyers found in the 

National Compensation Survey: Occupational 

Earnings in the United States 2007, U.S. 

Department of Labor released August 2008, Bulletin 

2704, Table 3 (‘‘Full-time civilian workers,’’ mean 

and median hourly wages). See (http://www.bls.gov/ 

ncs/ncswage2007.htm). 

46 See, e.g., Comment by IAC/InterActiveCorp & 

HSN LLC, #525547–00600 (Dec. 18, 2006), at 3, 

available at (http://www.ftc.gov/os/comments/ 

tsrrevisedcallabandon/index.shtm) (Comment No. 

278 of 631). 

previously noted would be performed 

by managerial and/or professional 

technical personnel, again, at an hourly 

rate of $42, with 25% allocable to legal 

staff, at an hourly rate of $55.45

Thus, of the 3,747 total estimated 

disclosure burden hours, 2,810 hours 

would be attributable to managerial 

and/or professional technical personnel, 

with the remaining 937 hours 

attributable to legal staff. This yields 

$118,020 and $51,535, respectively, in 

labor costs—in total, $169,555. 

2. Non-Labor Costs 

The amendment requires sellers 

seeking written agreements from 

consumers to disclose clearly and 

conspicuously that the purpose of the 

agreement is to authorize the seller to 

place prerecorded calls to them. Other 

than the initial recordkeeping costs, this 

disclosure requirement will impose de 

minimis costs, for the reasons discussed 

above. 

Similarly, staff has no reason to 

believe that the amendment’s 

requirement of an automated interactive 

opt-out mechanism will impose other 

than de minimis costs, for the reasons 

discussed above. The industry 

comments on the amendment uniformly 

support the view that automated 

interactive keypress technologies are 

now affordable, cost-effective, and 

widely available.46 Moreover, most, if 

not all of the industry telemarketers 

who commented, including many small 

business telemarketers, said they are 

currently using interactive keypress 

mechanisms. Thus, it does not appear 

that this requirement will impose any 

material capital or other non-labor costs 

on telemarketers. 

Thus, cumulatively for the live 

telemarketing call provisions of the TSR 

and the prerecorded call amendment, 

total labor costs are $21,498,863 

($388,190 + $39,354 + $20,901,764 + 

$169,555); total capital and other nonlabor costs are $6,502,350 (office 

supplies and phone-related costs).

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Purpose 

The General Services Administration 

(GSA) has mission responsibilities 

related to monitoring and enforcing 

compliance with Federal civil rights 

laws and regulations that apply to 

Federal Financial Assistance programs 

administered by GSA. Specifically, 

those laws provide that no person on 

the ground of race, color, national 

origin, disability, sex or age shall be 

excluded from participation in, be 

denied the benefits of, or be otherwise 

subjected to discrimination under any 

program in connection with which 

Federal financial assistance is extended 

under laws administered in whole or in 

part by GSA. These mission 

responsibilities generate the 

requirement to request and obtain 

certain data from recipients of Federal 

surplus property for the purpose of 

determining compliance, such as the 

number of individuals, based on race 

and ethnic origin, of the recipient’s 

eligible and actual serviced population; 

race and national origin of those denied 

participation in the recipient’s 

program(s); non-English languages 

encountered by the recipient’s 

program(s) and how the recipient is 

addressing meaningful access for 

individuals that are Limited English 

Proficient; whether there have been 

complaints or lawsuits filed against the 

recipient based on prohibited 

discrimination and whether there have 

been any findings; and whether the 

recipient’s facilities are accessible to 

qualified individuals with disabilities.
