CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION


Notice of Submission for OMB Review of Collection of Information 
Approval Extension and Request for Comments--Amended Interim Safety 
Standard for Cellulose Insulation

AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety Commission.

ACTION: Notice.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------

SUMMARY: In the Federal Register of March 3, 2004 (69 FR 10001), the 
Consumer Product Safety Commission published a notice in accordance 
with provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. 
Chapter 35) to announce the agency's intention to seek extension of 
approval of the collection of information in regulations implementing 
the Amended Interim Safety Standard for Cellulose Insulation. 16 CFR 
part 1209. No comments were received in response to the March 3, 2004 
notice. The Commission now announces that it has submitted to the 
Office of Management and Budget a request for extension of approval of 
that collection of information without change for a period of three 
years from the date of approval.
    The cellulose insulation standard prescribes requirements for 
flammability and corrosiveness of cellulose insulation produced for 
sale to or use by consumers. The standard requires manufacturers and 
importers of cellulose insulation to test insulation for resistance to 
smoldering and small open-flame ignition, and for corrosiveness, and to 
maintain records of that testing.
