SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: CPSC seeks to renew the following currently 
approved collection of information:
    Title: Requirements Pertaining to Third Party Conformity Assessment 
Bodies.
    OMB Number: 3041-0156.
    Type of Review: Renewal of collection.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Affected Public: Third party conformity assessment bodies seeking 
acceptance of accreditation or continuing accreditation.
    Estimated Burden:
     New Applications from Third Party Conformity Assessment 
Bodies.
    [cir] We estimate approximately 40 new applications from 
independent third party conformity assessment bodies will be submitted 
per year, taking an estimated 75 minutes to complete the initial 
application materials, with an estimated burden of 50 hours per year.
    [cir] We estimate approximately 3 firewalled third party conformity 
assessment bodies will apply per year, taking an estimated 8.4 hours to 
complete the initial application materials, with an estimated burden of 
25.2 hours per year.
    [cir] We estimate approximately 4 governmental third party 
conformity assessment bodies will apply per year, taking an estimated 3 
hours to complete the initial application materials, with an estimated 
burden of 12 hours per year.
     Third party conformity assessment bodies updating 
information.
    [cir] We estimate that approximately 5 third party conformity 
assessment bodies will take 15 minutes to update information for only 
those elements of information that need updating, with an estimated 
burden of 1.35 hours per year.
     Third party conformity assessment bodies that subcontracts 
out tests.
    [cir] We estimate that approximately 27 third party conformity 
assessment bodies will take 7 minutes to comply with the subcontracting 
recordkeeping requirement for an estimated 68,769 subcontract test, 
with an estimated of approximately 8,023 hours per year.
     Third party conformity assessment bodies that voluntarily 
withdraw.
    [cir] We estimate approximately 8 third party conformity assessment 
bodies will withdraw yearly, taking an estimated 30 minutes to create 
and submit the required documentation, with an estimated burden of 4 
hours per year.
     Third party conformity assessment bodies that are audited.
    [cir] We estimate that approximately 228 independent third party 
conformity assessment bodies each year will be audited, taking 
approximately 4 minutes to resubmit their Form 223 and accreditation 
certificate, with an estimated burden of 15.2 hours per year.
    [cir] We estimate that approximately 18 firewalled third party 
conformity assessment bodies will spend 226 minutes collecting and 
preparing the documentation to submit for an audit, with estimated 
burden of about 68 hours per year.
    [cir] We estimate approximately 25 governmental third party 
conformity assessment bodies will spend 1 hour collecting and preparing 
the documentation to submit for an audit, with estimated burden of 25 
hours per year.
     Total Annual Burden.
    Adding all of the annual estimated burden hours results in a total 
of 8,224 hours for third party conformity assessment bodies per year. 
At $38.78 per hour, the total cost of the recordkeeping associated with 
the Requirements Pertaining to Third Party Conformity Assessment Bodies 
is approximately $318,927 (8,224 hours x $38.78 = $318,927).
    General Description of Collection: On March 12, 2013, the 
Commission issued a rule Pertaining to Third Party Conformity 
Assessment Bodies (78 FR 15836). The rule established the general 
requirements concerning third party conformity assessment bodies, such 
as the requirements and procedures for CPSC acceptance of the 
accreditation of a third party conformity assessment body, and 
prescribed adverse actions that may be imposed against CPSC-accepted 
third party conformity assessment bodies. The rule also amended the 
audit requirements for third party conformity assessment bodies and 
amends the Commission's regulation on inspections.

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.
