National Environmental Policy Act 

In 2001, the USAF prepared an EA for 

Harbor Activities Associated with the 

Delta IV Program at VAFB. In 2005, 

NMFS prepared an EA augmenting the 

information contained in the USAF EA 

and issued a Finding of No Significant 

Impact on the issuance of an IHA for 

Boeing’s, now ULA, harbor activities in 

accordance with section 6.01 of the 

NOAA Administrative Order 216–6 

(Environmental Review Procedures for 

Implementing the National 

Environmental Policy Act, May 20, 

1999). ULA’s proposed activities and 

impacts for 2009–2010 are expected to 

be within the scope of NMFS’ 2005 EA 

and FONSI. 

Preliminary Conclusions 

Based on the preceding information, 

and provided that the proposed 

mitigation and monitoring are 

incorporated, NMFS has preliminarily 

concluded that the proposed activity 

will incidentally take, by level B 

behavioral harassment only, small 

numbers of marine mammals. There is 

no subsistence harvest of marine 

mammals in the proposed research area; 

therefore, the provision relating to 

impacts on certain subsistence activities 

is not implicated by this proposed 

action. No take by Level A harassment 

(injury) or death is anticipated and 

harassment takes should be at the 

lowest level practicable due to 

incorporation of the mitigation 

measures proposed in this document. 

Northern fur seals, Guadalupe fur 

seals, and Steller sea lions are unlikely 

to be found in the area and, therefore, 

will not be affected. No rookeries, 

mating grounds, areas of concentrated 

feeding, or other areas of special 

significance for marine mammals occur 

within or near south VAFB harbor. 

Proposed Authorization 

NMFS proposes to issue an IHA to 

ULA for the Delta IV/EELV Program 

during August 2009 to August 2010, 

provided that the previously mentioned 

mitigation, monitoring, and reporting 

requirements are incorporated.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: In 1990, 

Congress enacted legislation requiring 

residential garage door operators to 

comply with the provisions of a 

standard published by Underwriters 

Laboratories to protect against 

entrapment under provisions of the 

Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA) 

(15 U.S.C. 2051 et seq.). The entrapment 

protection requirements of UL Standard 

325 are codified into the Safety 

Standard for Automatic Residential 

Garage Door Operators, 16 CFR Part 

1211. Automatic residential garage door 

operators must comply with the latest 

edition of the Commission’s regulations 

at 16 CFR Part 1211. 

OMB approved the collection of 

information concerning the Safety 

Standard for Automatic Residential 

Garage Door Operators under control 

number 3041–0125. OMB’s most recent 

approval will expire on October 31, 

2009. The Commission now proposes to 

request an extension of approval 

without changes of this collection of 

information. 

A. Certification Requirements 

Section 203 of Public Law 101–608 

requires that UL Standard 325 shall be 

considered to be a consumer product 

safety standard under section 9 of the 

CPSA (15 U.S.C. 2058). Section 14(a) of 

the CPSA (15 U.S.C. 2063(a)) requires 

manufacturers, importers, and private 

labelers of a consumer product subject 

to a consumer product safety standard 

under the CPSA or similar rule, ban, 

standard, or regulation under any other 

act enforced by the Commission to issue 

a certificate stating that the product 

complies with all applicable rules, bans, 

standards or regulations. Section 14(a) 

of the CPSA also requires that the 

certificate of compliance must be based 

on a test of each product or upon a 

reasonable testing program and specify 

each such rule, ban, standard or 

regulation applicable to the product. 

Section 14(b) of the CPSA (15 U.S.C. 

2063(b)) authorizes the Commission to 

issue regulations to prescribe a 

reasonable testing program to support 

certificates of compliance with a 

consumer product safety standard under 

the CPSA or similar rule, ban, standard, 

or regulation under any other act 

enforced by the Commission. Section 

16(b) of the CPSA (15 U.S.C. 2065(b)) 

authorizes the Commission to issue 

rules to require that firms ‘‘establish and 

maintain’’ records to permit the 

Commission to determine compliance 

with rules issued under the authority of 

the CPSA. 

On December 22, 1992, the 

Commission issued rules prescribing 

requirements for a reasonable testing 

program to support certificates of 

compliance with the Safety Standard for 

Automatic Residential Garage Door 

Operators (57 FR 60449). These 

regulations also require manufacturers, 

importers, and private labelers of 

residential garage door operators to 

establish and maintain records to 

demonstrate compliance with the 

requirements for testing to support 

certification of compliance. 16 CFR Part

Federal Register / Vol. 74, No. 129 / Wednesday, July 8, 2009 / Notices 32571 

1211, Subparts B and C. The 

Commission uses the information 

compiled and maintained by 

manufacturers and importers of 

residential garage door operators to 

protect consumers from risks of death 

and injury resulting from entrapment 

accidents associated with garage door 

operators. More specifically, the 

Commission uses this information to 

determine whether the products 

produced and imported by those firms 

comply with the standard. The 

Commission also uses this information 

to facilitate corrective action if any 

residential garage door operators fail to 

comply with the standard in a manner 

that creates a substantial risk of injury 

to the public. 

B. Estimated Burden 

The Commission staff estimates that 

about 21 firms are subject to the testing 

and recordkeeping requirements of the 

certification regulations. The staff 

estimates that each respondent will 

spend 40 hours annually on the 

collection of information for a total of 

about 840 hours. The estimated total 

annual cost to industry is approximately 

$22,800 based on 840 hours × $27.14 

(the average hourly total compensation 

for sales and office workers in goodsproducing industries, Bureau of Labor 

Statistics, September 2008). 

The Commission staff will expend 

approximately 6 staff months reviewing 

records required to be maintained for 

automatic residential garage door 

operators. The annual cost to the 

Federal government of the collection of 

information in these regulations is 

estimated to be $83,000. 

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.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: 

A. Background 

In 1982, the Commission issued the 

Safety Standard for Omnidirectional 

Citizens Band Antennas (16 CFR Part 

1204) to reduce risks of death and 

serious injury that may result if an 

omnidirectional antenna contacts an 

overhead power line while being 

erected or removed from its site. The 

standard contains performance tests to 

demonstrate that an antenna will not 

transmit a harmful electric current if it 

contacts an electric power line with a 

voltage of 14,500 volts phase-to-ground. 

Certification regulations implementing 

the standard require manufacturers, 

importers, and private labelers of 

antennas subject to the standard to 

perform tests to demonstrate that those 

products meet the requirements of the 

standard, and to maintain records of 

those tests. The certification regulations 

are codified at 16 CFR Part 1204, 

Subpart B. 

The Commission uses the information 

compiled and maintained by 

manufacturers, importers, and private 

labelers of antennas subject to the 

standard to help protect the public from 

risks of injury or death associated with 

omnidirectional citizens band base 

station antennas. More specifically, this 

information helps the Commission 

determine that antennas subject to the 

standard comply with all applicable 

requirements. The Commission also 

uses this information to obtain 

corrective actions if omnidirectional 

citizens band base station antennas fail 

to comply with the standard in a 

manner which creates a substantial risk 

of injury to the public. 

OMB approved the collection of 

information in the certification 

regulations under control number 3041– 

0006. OMB’s most recent extension of 

approval expires on September 30, 

2009. The Commission now proposes to 

request an extension of approval 

without change for the collection of 

information in the certification 

regulations. 

B. Estimated Burden 

The Commission staff estimates that 

about 5 firms manufacture or import 

citizens band base station antennas 

subject to the standard. The 

Commission staff estimates that the 

certification regulations will impose an 

average annual burden of about 220 

hours on each of those firms. That 

burden will result from conducting the 

testing required by the regulations and 

maintaining records of the results of that 

testing. The total annual burden 

imposed by the regulations on 

manufacturers and importers of citizens
