SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  CPSC seeks to renew the following currently 
approved collection of information:
    Title: Standard for the Flammability of Children's Sleepwear: Sizes 
0 Through 6X; and the Standard for the Flammability of Children's 
Sleepwear: Sizes 7 Through 14.
    OMB Number: 3041-0027.
    Type of Review: Renewal of collection.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Affected Public: Manufacturers and importers of children's 
sleepwear.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: Based on a review of past firm 
inspections, and published industry information, approximately 50 large 
domestic companies manufacture most of the children's sleepwear 
produced in the United States. In addition, there may be up to 1,000 
small domestic producers of children's sleepwear. Accordingly, there 
may be as many as 1,050 firms that manufacture children's sleepwear in 
the United States. There are also approximately 4,500 importers (which 
may include some of the domestic manufacturers) that supply children's 
sleepwear to the United States market.
    Estimated Time per Response: The 50 large domestic manufacturers 
and the 100 largest importers may each introduce an average of 100 new 
children's sleepwear items annually. Testing and recordkeeping of each 
item is approximately 3 hours. The annual burden for the 50 large 
domestic manufacturers and the 100 largest importers is estimated at 
45,000 hours for testing and recordkeeping (150 firms x 100 items x 3 
hours). The remaining 1,000 manufacturers and 4,400 importers have on 
the average 10 new children's sleepwear items annually, for a testing 
and recordkeeping burden of 162,000 hours (5,400 firms x 10 items x 3 
hours.)
    Total Estimated Annual Burden: The total estimated potential annual 
burden imposed by the flammability standards on all manufacturers and 
importers of children's sleepwear is approximately 207,000 hours 
(45,000 hours + 162,000 hours).
    Description of Collection: The Standard for the Flammability of 
Children's Sleepwear: Sizes 0 through 6X (16 CFR part 1615) and the 
Standard for the Flammability of Children's Sleepwear: Sizes 7 through 
14 (16 CFR part 1616) address the fire hazard associated with small-
flame ignition sources for children's sleepwear manufactured for sale 
in or imported into the United States. The standards also require 
manufacturers and importers of children's sleepwear to collect 
information resulting from

product testing, and maintenance of the testing records. 16 CFR part 
1615, subpart B; 16 CFR part 1616; subpart B.

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

minimized by use of automated, electronic or other technological 
collection techniques, or other forms of information technology.
