Recordkeeping requirements of the
Safety Standard for Automatic Residential Garage Door Operators
need to be reinstated to prevent injuries and deaths associated
with garage door operator entrapment. According to the requirement
(16 CFR 1211.31), written certification records must be maintained
for a period of at least three years from the date of certification
of each residential garage door operator subject to the standard.
These certificates are based on a test or a "reasonable test
program" and must be made available upon request to CPSC in
accordance with section 16(b) of the CPSA.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
The following is a summary of the topics, regarding
the proposed collection of information, that the certification
covers:
(i) Why the information is being collected;
(ii) Use of information;
(iii) Burden estimate;
(iv) Nature of response (voluntary, required for a
benefit, or mandatory);
(v) Nature and extent of confidentiality; and
(vi) Need to display currently valid OMB control
number;
If you are unable to certify compliance with any of
these provisions, identify the item by leaving the box unchecked
