Consumer Product Safety Commission November 14, 2008 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The recently-enacted Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (``CPSIA''), sets forth several requirements for all terrain vehicles (``ATVs''). Among these, the CPSIA requires the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (``Commission'' or ``CPSC'') to publish in the Federal Register as a mandatory consumer product safety standard the American National Standard for Four Wheel All-Terrain Vehicles Equipment Configuration, and Performance Requirements developed by the Specialty Vehicle Institute of America (American National Standard ANSI/SVIA 1-2007). This document satisfies that requirement and reviews other provisions of the CPSIA that apply to ATVs.
