Information Disclosure Under Section 6(b) of the Consumer Product Safety Act
The Consumer Product Safety Commission (Commission, CPSC, or we) is issuing this notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR) to update the regulation that interprets section 6(b) of the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA). In 1983, the Commission issued a regulation interpreting the provisions of section 6(b) of the CPSA, and we are proposing to modernize that regulation to account for the significant improvements in information technology that have occurred since the regulation's adoption. We are also proposing to streamline the regulation to be as closely aligned with section 6(b) as possible, while maintaining our compliance with the statutory requirements and the protections of section 6(b)(5) for information filed in accordance with the requirements of section 15(b) of the CPSA. This NPR seeks comments on the proposed changes to the regulation.
Hazardous Substances and Articles; Administration and Enforcement Regulations: Final Rule; Revisions to Supplemental Definition of “Strong Sensitizer”

The revised definition of ``strong sensitizer'' eliminates redundancy, removes certain subjective factors, incorporates new and anticipated technology, places the criteria for classification of strong sensitizers in the order of importance, defines criteria for ``severity of reaction,'' and provides for the use of a weight-of- evidence approach to determine whether a substance is a strong sensitizer.
