SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: CPSC seeks to renew the following currently
approved collection of information:
Title: Standard for Automatic Residential Garage Door Operators.
OMB Number: 3041-0125.
Type of Review: Renewal of collection.
Frequency of Response: On occasion.
Affected Public: Manufacturers, importers, and private labelers of
automatic residential garage door operators.
General Description of Collection: On December 22, 1992, the
Commission issued rules prescribing requirements for a reasonable
testing program to support certificates of compliance with the Safety
Standard for Automatic Residential Garage Door Operators (57 FR 60449).
These regulations also require manufacturers, importers, and private
labelers of residential garage door operators to establish and maintain
records to demonstrate compliance with the requirements for testing to
support certification of compliance. 16 CFR part 1211, subparts B and
C.
Estimated Number of Respondents: An estimated 17 firms that conduct
performance tests and maintain records based on the test results to
retain Underwriters Laboratories, Inc. (UL) certification and verify
compliance with the rule.
Estimated Time per Response: Based on staff's review of industry
sources, each respondent will spend an estimated 40 hours (35 hours for
PRA burden associated with testing and 5 hours for recordkeeping)
annually on the collection of information related to the rule.
Total Estimated Annual Burden: 680 hours (17 firms x 40 hours).
Total Estimated Annual Cost to Respondents: Using compensation data
available from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), Employer
Costs for Employee Compensation (December 2024, <a href="https://www.bls.gov/news.release/archives/ecec_03142025.pdf">https://www.bls.gov/news.release/archives/ecec_03142025.pdf</a>), staff estimates that the
total annual cost of the PRA burden associated with the testing
requirement is estimated to be about $45,101, based on an hourly rate
of $75.80 as total compensation for management, professional, and
related occupations in goods-producing private
[[Page 44172]]
industries (17 firms x 35 hours x $75.80). Staff also estimates that
the total annual cost of the recordkeeping burden is estimated to be
about $3,472 based on an hourly rate of $40.85 for sales and office
workers (17 firms x 5 hours x $40.85). Therefore, the total burden cost
is about $48,573 ($45,101 + $3,472). This estimate includes
professional and clerical time that may be spent to retrieve product
data from automated or other records systems, explain firm practices/
policies intended to assure compliance with the standard, or accompany
Commission personnel during inspections.

Secretary, Consumer Product Safety Commission.
