CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION

[Docket No. CPSC-2010-0112]


Agency Information Collection Activities; Submission for OMB 
Review; Comment Request--Contests, Challenges, and Awards

AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety Commission.

ACTION: Notice.

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

SUMMARY: In accordance with the requirements of the Paperwork Reduction 
Act (PRA) of 1995 (44 U.S.C. chapter 35), the Consumer Product Safety 
Commission (Commission or CPSC) announces that the Commission has 
submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) a request for 
extension of approval of a collection of information associated with 
CPSC-sponsored contests, challenges, and awards (OMB No. 3041-0151). In 
the Federal Register of May 6, 2014 (79 FR 25844), the CPSC published a 
notice to announce the agency's intention to seek extension of approval 
of the collection of information. We received one comment. The 
commenter states that contests should be targeted to specific consumer 
segments, eligibility requirements should be indicated in the rules, 
and that online communities geared toward problem solving should be 
engaged to provide solutions.
    The CPSC contests that are directed toward raising awareness are 
targeted at relevant populations. For example, the poster contest to 
raise awareness on carbon monoxide poisoning was directed towards 
children and their families. In addition, consistent with the 
commenter's recommendation, CPSC contest materials and the related 
rules have listed applicable eligibility requirements. Finally, online 
problem solving communities are not precluded from entering contests 
open to the general public. Thus, we believe that CPSC's contests are 
consistent with the commenter's objectives. Therefore, by publication 
of this notice, the Commission announces that CPSC has submitted to the 
OMB a request for extension of approval of that collection of 
information, without change.

DATES: Written comments on this request for extension of approval of 
information collection requirements should be submitted by September 2, 
2014.

ADDRESSES: Submit comments about this request by email: [email protected] or fax: 202-395-6881. Comments by mail should be 
sent to the Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs, Attn: OMB 
Desk Officer for the CPSC, Office of Management and Budget, Room 10235, 
725 17th Street NW., Washington, DC 20503. In addition, written 
comments that are sent to OMB also should be submitted electronically 
at http://www.regulations.gov, under Docket No. CPSC-2010-0112.
