One
commenter asserts that the time cost of
testing and maintenance of the testing
records is 2 weeks, rather than 3 hours
per item. The commenter contends that
tests involve multiple stages, based on
fabric, prototype, and garment, and
involve multiple processes, such as
washing/drying, cutting, cooling, and
burning. According to the commenter,
the maintenance of the testing records
alone is 3–4 hours, including organizing
the reports and samples.
CPSC staff’s estimate of 3 hours
includes the testing and recordkeeping.
Although there are several stages
involved in the testing, including
washing and drying of samples, the
commenter seems to include time
estimates for down time and waiting
periods. However, such periods should
be excluded, since other work can be
performed during that time. In addition,
the difference in lab equipment can
affect the average time, because some
labs may have numerous washing
machines and multiple test cabinets.
Accordingly, the time estimates were
based on an average across the industry
and will not be adjusted at this time.
Title: Standard for the Flammability
of Children’s Sleepwear: Sizes 0 through
6X; and the Standard for the
Flammability of Children’s Sleepwear:
Sizes 7 through 14.
OMB Number: 3041–0027.
Type of Review: Renewal of
collection.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Affected Public: Manufacturers and
importers of children’s sleepwear.
Estimated Number of Respondents:
Based on a review of past firm
inspections, and published industry
information, staff estimates that there
could be as many as 981 domestic
children’s apparel manufacturers in the
United States that are subject to the rule.
However, not all of these manufacturers
will produce children’s sleepwear.
Therefore, this figure is likely an
overestimate of the actual number of
firms performing tests and creating
records in a given year. Furthermore,
using the Harmonized Tariff System
(HTS) codes for children’s sleepwear,
staff found approximately 3,037
importers that supply children’s
sleepwear to the U.S. market. However,
many of the 981 domestic
manufacturers, along with many large
U.S. retailers, may be among the
importers, and therefore, result in an
overstatement of firms subject to the
rule. If all 981 U.S. producers and all
3,037 importers introduced new
children’s sleepwear garments each
year, the total number of firms subject

to the CPSC recordkeeping requirements
annually would be 4,018 (981 + 3,037).
Estimated Time per Response: Testing
and recordkeeping of each item is
approximately 3 hours.
Total Estimated Annual Burden: The
50 largest domestic manufacturers and
the 100 largest importers may each
introduce an average of 100 new
children’s sleepwear items annually.
The annual burden for the 50 large
domestic manufacturers and the 100
largest importers is estimated at 45,000
hours for testing and recordkeeping (150
firms × 100 items × 3 hours). Staff
estimates that the remaining 931
manufacturers and 2,937 importers may
each introduce an average of 10 new
children’s sleepwear items, for a total
testing and recordkeeping burden of
116,040 hours (3,868 × 10 items × 3
hours.) Therefore, the total estimated
potential annual burden imposed by the
standard and regulations on all
manufacturers and importers of
children’s sleepwear will be about
161,040 hours (45,000 + 116,040).
Description of Collection: The
Standard for the Flammability of
Children’s Sleepwear: Sizes 0 through
6X (16 CFR part 1615) and the Standard
for the Flammability of Children’s
Sleepwear: Sizes 7 through 14 (16 CFR
part 1616) address the fire hazard
associated with small-flame ignition
sources for children’s sleepwear
manufactured for sale in, or imported
into, the United States. The standards
also require manufacturers and
importers of children’s sleepwear to
collect information resulting from
product testing and maintenance of the
testing records. 16 CFR part 1615,
subpart B; 16 CFR part 1616; subpart B.
