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.

--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
