CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION


Submission for OMB Review; Comment Request--Flammability 
Standards for Children's Sleepwear

AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety Commission.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: In the Federal Register of April 16, 2009, 74 FR 17636, the 
Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC or Commission) published a 
notice in accordance with provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 
1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35) to announce the CPSC's intention to seek 
extension of approval of collections of information in the flammability 
standards for children's sleepwear and implementing regulations.
    No comments were received in response to that notice. Therefore, by 
publication of this notice, the Commission announces that it has 
submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for 
extension of approval of that collection of information without change.
    The standards and regulations are codified as the Standard for the 
Flammability of Children's Sleepwear: Sizes 0 Through 6X (FF3-71), 16 
CFR Part 1615; and the Standard for the Flammability of Children's 
Sleepwear: Sizes 7 Through 14 (FF5-74), 16 CFR Part 1616. The 
flammability standards and implementing regulations prescribe 
requirements for testing and recordkeeping by manufacturers and 
importers of children's sleepwear subject to the standards. The 
information in the records required by the regulations allows the 
Commission to determine if items of children's sleepwear comply with 
the applicable standard. This information also enables the Commission 
to obtain corrective actions if items of children's sleepwear fail to 
comply with the applicable standard in a manner which creates a 
substantial risk of injury.
