SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION : CPSC 
seeks to renew the following currently approved collection of information: 
Title: Third Party Conformity 
Assessment Body Registration Form. 
OMB Number: 3041–0143. 
Type of Review: Renewal of 
collection. 
Frequency of Response: On occasion. Affected Public: Third party 
conformity assessment bodies seeking 
acceptance of accreditation or continuing accreditation. 
Estimated Burden: The CPSC 
estimates the burden of the collection of information in CPSC Form 223 is as follows: 
ESTIMATED ANNUAL REPORTING BURDEN  
Activity Number of 
respondents Frequency of 
responses Total annual 
responses Hours per 
response Total hours 
Initial Registration ................................................................ 26 1 26 1 26 
Re-Registration .................................................................... 303 1 303 1 303 
Changes in Information ........................................................ 2 1 2 0.25 0.5 
Total .............................................................................. ........................ ........................ ........................ ........................ 329.5 
These estimates are based on the 
following information: 
•Based on applications received 
from FY 2013 to date, we estimate the number of third party conformity assessment bodies who would register each year for the next 3 years would be 26. 
•Under 16 CFR part 1112, third party 
conformity assessment bodies are required to resubmit CPSC Form 223 every 2 years. As all third party conformity assessment bodies have not 
submitted their first CPSC Form 223s at the same time, only about half would be expected to resubmit a CPSC Form 223 
in any 1 year. As of August 2022, 606 third party conformity assessment bodies have registered with CPSC. Approximately half (303) of these firms would be required to re-register with CPSC each year. 
•Under 16 CFR part 1112, third party 
conformity assessment bodies are required to ensure that the information 
submitted on CPSC Form 223 is current and must submit a new CPSC Form 223 whenever the information changes. Based on current experience with third party conformity assessment bodies, we estimate that two third party conformity assessment bodies will make revisions per year to update their information. A change in information is a change that does not require review of laboratory accreditation documents, such as scope

or test methods. Examples of revised 
information include changes in the website URL, name of the laboratory, and name of laboratory point of contact. 
The total burden, therefore, is 329.5 
hours, which we round up to 330 hours. We estimate that hourly compensation for the time required for recordkeeping is $36.59 per hour (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, ‘‘Employer Costs for Employee Compensation (ECEC),’’ Table 4: Total compensation for private industry workers in sales and office occupations within goods-producing industries, June 2022, public news release url: www.bls.gov/news.release/ archives/ecec_ 09202022.pdf). The total 
cost burden to the respondents is approximately $12,075 ($36.59 × 330 
hours = $12,074.70). 
General Description of Collection: The 
Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA) requires third party testing to be conducted by a third party conformity assessment body for any children’s product that is subject to a children’s product safety rule, before importing for consumption or warehousing or distributing in commerce. The CPSIA allows accreditation of third party conformity assessment bodies to be conducted either by the Commission, or by an independent accreditation organization designated by the Commission. In addition, the CPSIA requires that the Commission maintain on its website an up-to-date list of entities that have been accredited to assess conformity with children’s product safety rules. With the exception of firewalled third party conformity assessment bodies, which must be approved by Commission order as stated in 16 CFR 1112.13(b), the Commission has chosen to accept the accreditation of third party conformity assessment bodies that meet accreditation requirements of an independent accreditation organization. 16 CFR 1112.13(a). 
To assess a third party conformity 
assessment bodies’ qualifications for 
acceptance by CPSC, information related to location, accreditation, and ownership must be collected from third party conformity assessment bodies. The CPSC uses an online collection form, CPSC Form 223, to gather information from third party conformity assessment bodies voluntarily seeking acceptance by CPSC. The information collected relates to location, accreditation, and ownership. Commission staff uses this information to assess: 
•A third party conformity 
assessment body’s status as an independent third party conformity assessment body, a government-owned or government-controlled conformity assessment body, or a firewalled conformity assessment body; 
•Qualifications for acceptance by 
CPSC to test for compliance to specified children’s product safety rules; and 
•Eligibility for acceptance on the 
CPSC website. 
Part 1112 requires the collection of 
information in CPSC Form 223: 
•Upon initial application by the 
third party conformity assessment body for acceptance by CPSC; 
•Whenever there is a change to 
accreditation or ownership information; and 
•At least every 2 years as part of a 
regular audit process. 
Request for Comments 
CPSC solicits written comments from 
all interested persons about the 
proposed collection of information. CPSC specifically solicits information relevant to the following topics: 
•Whether the collection of 
information described is necessary for the proper performance of CPSC’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.
