SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: CPSC seeks to extend the following currently
approved generic collection of information:
Title: Contests, Challenges, and Awards.
OMB Number: 3041-0151.
Type of Review: Extension of generic collection.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Affected Public: Contestants, award nominees, award nominators.
Estimated Number of Respondents: We estimate that there will be 500
contest or award participants each year. In addition, 20 participants
may be required to provide additional information upon selection.
Estimated Time per Response: The estimated time to complete a
contest or award submission is 5 hours per participant. In addition,
the 20 participants expected to provide additional information upon
selection will require approximately 2 additional hours.
Total Estimated Annual Burden: Based on CPSC's estimates that there
will be 500 participants who each require 5 hours to complete their
submissions, and that 20 participants will be asked to provide
additional information that will take two hours to complete, CPSC
estimates that the total annual burden of this collection is 2,540
hours. The annualized cost to respondents for the information
collection is approximately $109,880 (2,540 hours x $43.26/hr), as
estimated from total compensation data available from the U.S. Bureau
of Labor Statistics.\1\

General Description of Collection: The Commission establishes
contests, challenges, and awards to increase the public's knowledge and
awareness of safety hazards. The Commission also recognizes through
awards certain individuals, firms, and organizations that work to
address issues related to consumer product safety. The information to
be collected from contestants and award nominees or nominators includes
contact and background information necessary to conduct a contest or
award program. Limited background or biographical information similar
to data found on a resume, such as a nominee's education and work
experience, may be requested for some contests or awards. Additionally,
substantive entries such as essays, posters, drawings, or videos may be
requested for contestants and award nominees.
Request for Comments: The Commission solicits written comments from
all interested persons about the proposed collection of information.
The Commission specifically solicits information relevant to the
following topics:
<bullet> whether the collection of information described above is
necessary for the proper performance of the Commission's functions,
including whether the information would have practical utility;
<bullet> whether the estimated burden of the proposed collection of
information is accurate;
<bullet> whether the quality, utility, and clarity of the
information to be collected could be enhanced; and
