CONSUMER PRODUCT SAFETY COMMISSION
Notification of Request for Extension of Approval of Information
Collection Requirements--Recordkeeping Requirements Under the Safety
Regulations for Non-Full-Size Cribs
AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety Commission.
ACTION: Notice.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
SUMMARY: In the April 7, 1998 Federal Register (63 FR 16989), the
Consumer Product Safety Commission published a notice in accordance
with provisions of the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C.
Chapter 35) to announce the agency's intention to seek an extension of
approval through September 30, 2001, of information collection
requirements in the safety regulations for non-full-size cribs (16 CFR
1500.18(a)(14) and Part 1509). The Commission now announces that it has
submitted to the Office of Management and Budget a request for
extension of approval of that collection of information.
These regulations were issued to reduce hazards of strangulation,
suffocation, pinching, bruising, laceration, and other injuries
associated with non-full-size cribs. (A non-full-size crib is a crib
having an interior length greater than 55 inches or smaller than 49\3/
4\ inches; or an interior width greater than 30\5/8\ inches or smaller
than 25\3/8\ inches; or both.) The regulations prescribe performance,
design, and labeling requirements for non-full-size cribs. They also
require manufacturers and importers of those products to maintain sales
records for a period of three years after the manufacture or
importation of non-full-size cribs. If any non-full-size cribs subject
to provisions of 16 CFR 1500.18(a)(14) and Part 1509 fail to comply in
a manner severe enough to warrant a recall, the required records can be
used by the manufacturer or importer and by the Commission to identify
those persons and firms who should be notified of the recall.
