Consumer Product Safety Commission April 22, 2011 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (``CPSC,'' ``Commission,'' or ``we'') issues this notice amending the terms under which it will accept certifications for children's products based on third party conformity assessment body (laboratory) testing to the flammability regulations at 16 CFR part 1610 that occurred before the Commission's acceptance of the accreditation of the third party conformity assessment body.\1\ We are taking this action in response to a request from certain members of the clothing textile industry to reduce unnecessary retesting of clothing textiles that have been tested already and found to be in compliance with CPSC regulations.
