statements of such yields are supported
by testing conducted pursuant to the
Cambridge Filter Method, also
frequently referred to as ‘‘the FTC Test
Method.’’ If it withdraws this guidance,
advertisers should not use terms such as
‘‘per FTC Method’’ or other phrases that
state or imply FTC endorsement or
approval of the Cambridge Filter
Method or other machine-based test
methods. The Commission seeks public
comments on its proposal.
DATES: Comments must be submitted on
or before August 12, 2008.
ADDRESSES: Interested parties are

complete copies, to the following
address: Federal Trade Commission,
Office of the Secretary, Room H-135

please consider submitting your
comments in electronic form, as

comment contains any material for
which confidential treatment is
requested, it must be filed in paper

the Commission considers an electronic
comment, you must file it on the webbased form at the (https://

Notice appears at www.regulations.gov,
you may also file an electronic comment
through that web site. The Commission
will consider all comments that
regulations.gov forwards to it.

request for confidential treatment, including the
factual and legal basis for the request, and must

withheld from the public record. The request will
be granted or denied by the Commission’s General
