SUMMARY: The proposed information collection requirement described

group is the 50 states; the second group consists of individual 
purchasers, manufacturers, retailers, and installers of manufactured

federal agencies to review the submissions and then possibly contact 
the submitting party or agency, and to act as neutrals, mediators, and 
arbitrators.
