SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:  CPSC seeks to renew the following currently 
approved collection of information:
    Title: Safety Standards for Full-Size Baby Cribs and Non-Full Size 
Baby Cribs-Verification of Compliance Form.
    OMB Number: 3041-0161.
    Type of Review: Renewal of collection.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Affected Public: Child care centers.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: 74 child care centers.
    Estimated Time per Response: .25 hour for each child care center to 
provide the information on the form.
    Total Estimated Annual Burden: 18.5 hours (.25 hour x 74 child care 
centers).
    General Description of Collection: CPSC staff intends to visit 
child care centers to measure compliance with the crib safety 
standards. Information from those visits would be recorded on a 
``Verification of Compliance Form.'' CPSC investigators or designated 
state or local officials will use the form, which will be filled out 
entirely at the site during the normal course of the visit. The 
Commission will use the information to measure compliance with the crib 
safety standards and to develop an enforcement strategy. A pilot 
program was conducted in 2012, which included visits to approximately 
50 child care centers in six states. Results of the pilot program were 
used to expand the program in 2013, to seven states and 112 
inspections. CPSC conducted the program in 2015, in three states, which 
included 47 inspections. CPSC projects that four states will 
participate in the program in 2016 and approximately 74 inspections 
will be conducted.
