of 1939 (``Wool Rules''), 16 CFR part 300.
OMB Control Number: 3084-0100.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: The Wool Products Labeling Act of 1939 (``Wool Act'') \1\
prohibits the misbranding of wool products. The Wool Rules establish
disclosure requirements that assist consumers in making informed
purchasing decisions and recordkeeping requirements that assist the
Commission in enforcing the Rules.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

\1\ 15 U.S.C. 68 et seq.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

On January 9, 2015, the Commission sought comment on the
information collection requirements in the Wool Rules. 80 FR 1411. No
comments were received. As required by OMB regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, the FTC is providing this second opportunity for public comment.
Likely Respondents: Manufacturers, importers, processors and
marketers of wool products.
Frequency of Response: Third party disclosure; recordkeeping
requirement.
Estimated annual hours burden: 1,888,000 hours (160,000
recordkeeping hours + 1,720,000 disclosure hours).
Recordkeeping: 160,000 hours [4,000 wool firms incur an average 40
hours per firm].
Disclosure: 1,720,000 hours [240,000 hours for determining label
content + 480,000 hours to draft and order labels + 1,000,000 hours to
attach labels].
Estimated annual cost burden: $22,620,000 (solely relating to labor
costs).

Title: Rules and regulations under the Textile Fiber Products
Identification Act (``Textile Rules''), 16 CFR part 303.
OMB Control Number: 3084-0101.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: The Textile Fiber Products Identification Act (``Textile
Act'') \2\ prohibits the misbranding and false advertising of textile
fiber products. The Textile 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 contain a petition procedure for requesting the
establishment of generic names for textile fibers.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

\2\ 15 U.S.C. 70 et seq.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

On January 9, 2015, the Commission sought comment on the
information collection requirements in the Textile Rules. 80 FR 1411.
No comments were received. As required by OMB regulations, 5 CFR part
1320, the FTC is providing this second opportunity for public comment.
Likely Respondents: Manufacturers, importers, processors and
marketers of textile fiber products.
Frequency of Response: Third party disclosure; recordkeeping
requirement.
Estimated annual hours burden: 39,186,772 hours (1,237,015
recordkeeping hours + 37,949,757 disclosure hours).
Recordkeeping: 1,237,015 hours (approximately 19,031 textile firms
incur average burden of 65 hours per firm)
Disclosure: 37,949,757 hours (1,471,730 hours to determine label
content + 1,811,360 hours to draft and order labels + 34,666,667 hours
to attach labels)
Estimated annual cost burden: $280,754,000, rounded to the nearest
thousand (solely relating to labor costs).

Title: The Care Labeling of Textile Wearing Apparel and Certain
Piece Goods As Amended (``Care Labeling Rule''), 16 CFR 423.
OMB Control Number: 3084-0103.
Type of Review: Extension of a currently approved collection.
Abstract: The Care Labeling Rule requires manufacturers and
importers to attach a permanent care label to all covered textile
clothing in order to assist consumers in making purchase decisions and
in determining what method to use to clean their apparel. Also,
manufacturers and importers of piece goods used to make textile
clothing must provide the same care information on the end of each bolt
or roll of fabric.
On January 9, 2015, the Commission sought comment on the
information collection requirements in the Care Labeling Rule. 80 FR
1411. No comments were received. As required by OMB regulations, 5 CFR
part 1320, the FTC is providing this second opportunity for public
comment.
Estimated annual hours burden: 34,742,227 hours (solely relating to
disclosure \3\) (derived from 2,264,200 hours to determine care
instructions + 1,811,360 hours to draft and order labels + 30,666,667
hours to attach labels).
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

\3\ The Care Labeling Rule imposes no specific recordkeeping
requirements. Although the Rule requires manufacturers and importers
to have reliable evidence to support the recommended care
instructions, companies in some circumstances can rely on current
technical literature or past experience.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Likely Respondents: Manufacturers or importers of textile apparel.
Frequency of Response: Third party disclosure.
Estimated Annual Cost Burden: $258,329,000, rounded to the nearest
thousand (solely relating to labor costs).

remove individuals' home contact information from comments before
placing them on the Commission Web site.
Because your comment will be made public, you are solely
responsible for making sure that your comment does not include any
sensitive personal information, such as anyone's Social Security
number, date of birth, driver's license number or other state
identification number or foreign country equivalent, passport number,

solely responsible for making sure that your comment does not include
any sensitive health information, like medical records or other
individually identifiable health information. In addition, do not

If you want the Commission to give your comment confidential
treatment, you must file it in paper form, with a request for
confidential treatment, and you are required to follow the procedure
explained in FTC Rule 4.9(c), 16 CFR 4.9(c). Your comment will be kept
confidential only if the FTC General Counsel grants your request in
accordance with the law and the public interest.
Postal mail addressed to the Commission is subject to delay due to
heightened security screening. As a result, we encourage you to submit
your comment online, or to send it to the Commission by courier or
overnight service. To make sure that the Commission considers your
online comment, you must file it at https://ftcpublic.commentworks.com/ftc/apparelrulespra2, by following the instructions on the web-based
form. If this Notice appears at http://www.regulations.gov, you also
may file a comment through that Web site.
If you file your comment on paper, write ``Apparel Rules: FTC File

The FTC Act and other laws that the Commission administers permit
the collection of public comments to consider and use in this
proceeding as appropriate. The Commission will consider all timely and
responsive public comments that it receives on or before April 20,
2015. You can find more information, including routine uses permitted
by the Privacy Act, in the Commission's privacy policy, at http://www.ftc.gov/ftc/privacy.shtm.

the Federal Trade Commission, New Executive Office Building, Docket
Library, Room 10102, 725 17th Street NW., Washington, DC 20503.
