Abstract: the Commission has finalized a safety standard for play yards that incorporates by reference the voluntary standard for play yards issued by ASTM International, ASTM F406-12a. Sections 9 and 10 of ASTM F406-12a contain requirements for marking, labeling, and instructional literature that are disclosure requirements, thus falling within the definition of "collections of information" at 5 C.F.R. § 1320.3(c). Section 9.1.1.1 of ASTM F406-12a requires that the name and the place of business (city, state, mailing address, including zip code, or telephone number) of the manufacturer, distributor, or seller be marked clearly and legibly on each product and its retail package. Section 9.1.1.2 of ASTM F406-12a requires a code mark or other means that identifies the date (month and year, as a minimum) of manufacture. Section 10.1 of ASTM F406-11 requires instructions to be supplied with the product.
