SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: CPSC seeks to renew the following currently

    Title: Notification Requirements for Coal and Wood Burning 
Appliances.
    OMB Number: 3041-0040.
    Type of Review: Renewal of collection.
    Frequency of Response: On occasion.
    Affected Public: Manufacturers and importers of coal and wood 
burning appliances.
    Estimated Number of Respondents: An estimated five submissions 
annually.
    Estimated Time per Response: Three hours per submission.
    Total Estimated Annual Burden: 15 hours (5 submissions x 3 hours).
    General Description of Collection: 16 CFR part 1406, Coal and Wood 
Burning Appliances--Notification of Performance and Technical Data 
requires that manufacturers and importers provide consumers with 
written notification regarding certain technical and performance 
information related to safety on each coal and wood burning appliance. 
Manufacturers are also required to provide to the Commission a copy of 
the notification to consumers and an explanation of all clearance 
distances contained in the notification. For existing models, all known 
manufacturers have complied with the requirements. Accordingly, there 
is no new burden associated with the requirements of 16 CFR part 1406, 
except in cases where existing models are changed or new models are 
introduced. Less than five submissions are estimated annually as a 
result of new stove models coming into the market or new firms entering 
the market.

persons about the proposed collection of information. The Commission 
specifically solicits information relevant to the following topics:

--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;
--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.
