<p>Section 104 of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA) requires the Commission to issue consumer product safety standards for durable infant or toddler products. The Commission is directed to assess the effectiveness of applicable voluntary standards, and in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act, promulgate consumer product safety standards that are substantially the same as the voluntary standard or more stringent than the voluntary standard if the Commission determines that more stringent standards would further reduce the risk of injury associated with the product. The CPSIA requires that no later than August 14, 2009, the Commission begin rulemaking for at least two categories of durable infant or toddler products and promulgate two such standards every&nbsp;six months thereafter. On August 17, 2016, CPSC staff sent a notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) briefing package for baby changing products to the Commission for consideration, as part of this series of standards for durable infant or toddler products. The proposed standard was based on ASTM F2388-16,&nbsp;<em>Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Baby Changing Tables for Domestic Use</em>, with additions. On September 14, 2016, the Commission held a public decisional meeting to consider the NPRM briefing package, at which the Commission voted to approve publication of the NPRM in the&nbsp;<strong>Federal Register</strong>. The Commission published the NPRM in the&nbsp;<strong>Federal Register</strong> on&nbsp;<span data-term="goog_1921530430">September 29, 2016</span>. The comment period ended on&nbsp;<span data-term="goog_1921530431">December 13, 2016</span>. After reviewing comments, staff will prepare a briefing package on a final rule for Commission consideration in FY 2018.</p>
