or test methods. Examples of revised
information include changes in the
website URL, name of the laboratory,
and name of laboratory point of contact.
The total burden, therefore, is 329.5
hours, which we round up to 330 hours.
We estimate that hourly compensation
for the time required for recordkeeping
is $36.59 per hour (U.S. Bureau of Labor
Statistics, ‘‘Employer Costs for
Employee Compensation (ECEC),’’ Table
4: Total compensation for private
industry workers in sales and office
occupations within goods-producing
industries, June 2022, public news
release url: www.bls.gov/news.release/
archives/ecec_09202022.pdf). The total
cost burden to the respondents is
approximately $12,075 ($36.59 × 330
hours = $12,074.70).
General Description of Collection: The
Consumer Product Safety Improvement
Act of 2008 (CPSIA) requires third party
testing to be conducted by a third party
conformity assessment body for any
children’s product that is subject to a
children’s product safety rule, before
importing for consumption or
warehousing or distributing in
commerce. The CPSIA allows
accreditation of third party conformity
assessment bodies to be conducted
either by the Commission, or by an
independent accreditation organization
designated by the Commission. In
addition, the CPSIA requires that the
Commission maintain on its website an
up-to-date list of entities that have been
accredited to assess conformity with
children’s product safety rules. With the
exception of firewalled third party
conformity assessment bodies, which
must be approved by Commission order
as stated in 16 CFR 1112.13(b), the
Commission has chosen to accept the
accreditation of third party conformity
assessment bodies that meet
accreditation requirements of an
independent accreditation organization.
16 CFR 1112.13(a).
To assess a third party conformity
assessment bodies’ qualifications for
acceptance by CPSC, information
related to location, accreditation, and
ownership must be collected from third
party conformity assessment bodies.
The CPSC uses an online collection
form, CPSC Form 223, to gather
information from third party conformity
assessment bodies voluntarily seeking
acceptance by CPSC. The information
collected relates to location,
accreditation, and ownership.
Commission staff uses this information
to assess:
• A third party conformity
assessment body’s status as an
independent third party conformity
assessment body, a government-owned

or government-controlled conformity
assessment body, or a firewalled
conformity assessment body;
• Qualifications for acceptance by
CPSC to test for compliance to specified
children’s product safety rules; and
• Eligibility for acceptance on the
CPSC website.
Part 1112 requires the collection of
information in CPSC Form 223:
• Upon initial application by the
third party conformity assessment body
for acceptance by CPSC;
• Whenever there is a change to
accreditation or ownership information;
and
• At least every 2 years as part of a
regular audit process.
Request for Comments
CPSC solicits written comments from
all interested persons about the
proposed collection of information.
CPSC specifically solicits information
relevant to the following topics:
• Whether the collection of
information described is necessary for
the proper performance of CPSC’s
functions, including whether the
information would have practical
utility;
• Whether the estimated burden of
the proposed collection of information
is accurate;
• Whether the quality, utility, and
clarity of the information to be collected
could be enhanced; and
• Whether the burden imposed by the
collection of information could be
minimized by use of automated,
electronic, or other technological
collection techniques, or other forms of
information technology.

of Management and Budget (OMB) a
request for extension of approval for a
collection of information from
manufacturers and importers of
disposable and novelty cigarette
lighters. This collection of information
consists of testing and recordkeeping
requirements in regulations
implementing the Safety Standard for
Cigarette Lighters, approved previously
under OMB Control No. 3041–0116. On
July 25, 2022, CPSC published a notice
in the Federal Register announcing the
agency’s intent to seek this extension.
CPSC received no comments in
response to that notice. Therefore, by
publication of this notice, the
Commission announces that CPSC has
submitted to the OMB a request for
extension of approval of this collection
of information.
DATES: Written comments on this
request for extension of approval of
information collection requirements
should be submitted by November 7,
2022.
Written comments and
recommendations for the proposed
information collection should be sent
within 30 days of publication of this
notice to: www.reginfo.gov/public/do/

ADDRESSES:

On July
25, 2022, CPSC published a notice in
the Federal Register announcing the
agency’s intent to seek an extension for
this information collection. 87 FR

CPSC seeks to renew the following
currently approved collection of
information:
Title: Safety Standard for Cigarette
Lighters.
OMB Number: 3041–0116.
Type of Review: Renewal of
collection.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Affected Public: Manufacturers and
importers of cigarette lighters.
Estimated Number of Respondents: In
2021, 30 firms submitted information to
the CPSC on 143 lighter models. There

were 4 new lighter models and 139
lighters that were comparable to models
previously tested (‘‘comparison
lighters’’).
Estimated Time per Response: The
burden associated with the standard
includes the time and cost spent testing
and maintaining the test records, either
by the firm or by outside contractors. If
the firm elects to use an outside
contractor, the cost of testing per model
is estimated to be about $25,000 on
average. If 4 new lighter models are
introduced each year and tested by
outside contractors, the annual cost
would be about $100,000. If tests
instead are conducted in-house, testing
new lighter models is expected to take
about 90 hours per model. The total
testing time for the 4 models would be
360 hours (90 hours × 4 models).
Recordkeeping consists of two separate
components: recordkeeping for new
lighter models, and recordkeeping for
comparison lighters.
New Lighter Models—The time
burden for recordkeeping for new
lighter models is estimated at 20 hours
per model. The total time for
recordkeeping is estimated to be 80
hours (20 hours × 4 models).
Comparison Lighters—Firms may also
submit comparison lighters to
demonstrate compliance with the
standard. In 2021, 139 comparison
lighters were reported to the CPSC.
Although firms bear no testing costs for
comparison lighters, the burden hours
for recordkeeping have been estimated
at 3 hours per model. Thus, an
estimated 417 hours (139 models × 3
hours) is estimated for recordkeeping for
comparison lighters.
Reporting Requirements—
Approximately 1 hour will be required
for firms to submit forms to CPSC per
model, for a total annual reporting
burden on 143 hours (143 models × 1
hour).
Total Estimated Annual Burden: The
annual total number of hours could be
as high as 1000 hours (360 testing + 497
recordkeeping hours + 143 reporting
hours) per year. If some firms elect to
outsource testing of new models, there
may be fewer burden hours. The CPSC
estimates the total cost for firms to test,
and prepare, maintain, and submit
records to the CPSC in compliance with
the lighter regulation would be in the
range of $47,859 to $122,515, depending
upon whether the testing is done inhouse or through outsourcing.
General Description of Collection: In
1993, the CPSC issued the Safety
Standard for Cigarette Lighters (16 CFR
part 1210) under the Consumer Product
Safety Act (CPSA) (15 U.S.C. 2051 et
seq.) to eliminate or reduce risks of

death and burn injury from fires
accidentally started by children playing
with cigarette lighters. The standard
requires certain test protocols, as well as
recordkeeping and reporting
requirements. 16 CFR part 1210, subpart
B. In addition, section 14(a) of the CPSA
(15 U.S.C. 2063(a)) requires
manufacturers, importers, and private
labelers of a consumer product subject
to a consumer product safety standard
to issue a certificate stating that the
product complies with all applicable
consumer product safety standards.
Section 14(a) of the CPSA also requires
that the certificate of compliance must
be based on a test of each product or
upon a reasonable testing program.
