Consumer Product Safety Commission July 27, 2010 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

Section 101(a) of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (``CPSIA'') provides that, as of August 11, 2011, children's products may not contain more than 100 parts per million (``ppm'') of lead, unless the Consumer Product Safety Commission (``CPSC'' or ``Commission''), determines that it is not technologically feasible, after notice and a hearing and after analyzing the public health protections associated with substantially reducing lead in children's products. The reduction can be for a product or product category. This notice requests comment and information on the technological feasibility of meeting the 100 ppm lead content limit for children's products.
