Consumer Product Safety Commission April 2014 – Federal Register Recent Federal Regulation Documents

As required by the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995 (44 U.S.C. Chapter 35), the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC or Commission) announces that the CPSC has submitted to the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), a request for extension of approval of a collection of information from persons who may voluntarily participate in consumer focus groups.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC, Commission, or we) is announcing that the CPSC intends to hold a forum on carbon monoxide/combustion sensors. Through this announcement, we are also issuing a Request for Information (RFI) seeking information on the availability of sensors that are capable of: (1) Operating within the flue passageways of a gas appliance or similar environment; (2) directly or indirectly monitoring carbon monoxide levels or other gases or environmental conditions associated with the production of dangerous levels of carbon monoxide; and (3) providing a shutdown or other preemptive signal in response to dangerous levels of carbon monoxide. We invite interested parties to provide information responsive to the RFI and to attend and participate in the forum and to submit comments responsive to the forum agenda.
