SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:
A. Background
In August 2002, the Commission
received correspondence from the
Consumer Federation of America
(‘‘CFA’’) and eight other groups
requesting several actions concerning
ATVs. The Commission docketed their
request that the Commission ban adultsize four wheel ATVs sold for the use
of children under 16 years old as a
petition. The petitioners assert that such
ATVs pose an unreasonable risk of
injury and death to children.
The Commission published a notice
in the Federal Register on October 18,
2002, requesting comments on the
petition. 67 FR 64353. The Commission
extended the comment period 60 days.
67 FR 78776. The Commission received
a total of 78 comments in response to
these Federal Register notices. In
addition, the Commission held a public
hearing in Morgantown, West Virginia
on June 5, 2003, and the Chairman of
the Commission conducted one public
hearing in Anchorage, Alaska on July 8,
2003 and another in Albuquerque, New
Mexico on November 6, 2003.
Presenters at these hearings discussed
their opinions about the petition as well
as other issues concerning ATVs.
The staff reviewed the petition,
comments and other relevant available
information. The staff then forwarded a
briefing package to the Commission,
which is available on the Commission’s
Web site https://www.cpsc.gov or from
the Commission’s Office of the
Secretary. The staff recommends that
the Commission deny the petition. The
staff concludes that the effectiveness of
the ban requested by petitioners would
likely be limited for the following
reasons. A sales ban would primarily
address how ATVs are sold, rather than
how they are used after they are
purchased, and is likely to have limited
effect on deaths and injuries. CPSC does
not have the authority to regulate how
consumers use a product. Under current
ATV Voluntary Action Plans, major

distributors already prohibit their
dealers from selling adult-size ATVs for
the use of children. Also, numerous
hangtags and warnings on ATVs inform
consumers that adult-size ATVs are not
intended for children. It is uncertain
that a ban of the type petitioners request
could have any greater impact than
these existing measures.
B. The Public Meeting
The purpose of the public meeting is
to provide a forum for oral presentations
on the ATV petition and the CPSC staff
briefing package.
Participation in the meeting is open.
See the DATES section of this notice for
information on making requests to give
oral presentations at the meeting and on
making written submissions.
Dated: February 8, 2005.

Secretary, Consumer Product Safety
Commission.
