Title: Testing, Certification, and Labeling of Certain Consumer Products | |
Abstract: Section 102(d)(2) of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA), Public Law 110-314 (August 14, 2008), requires the Commission to initiate by regulation, no later than 15 months after the date of enactment: (1) A program by which a manufacturer or private labeler may label a consumer product as complying with the certification requirements of Section 102(a) of the CPSIA; (2) protocols and standards (i) for ensuring that a children's product tested for compliance with an applicable children's product safety rule is subject to testing periodically and when there has been a material change in the product's design or manufacturing process, including the sourcing of component parts; (ii) for the testing of random samples to ensure continued compliance; (iii) for verifying that a children's product tested by a conformity assessment body complies with applicable children's product safety rules; and (iv) for safeguarding against the exercise of undue influence on a third party conformity assessment body by a manufacturer or private labeler. The Commission is also considering defining what constitutes a reasonable testing program, requirements for additional third-party tests of childrens products, and protocols for component parts testing of children's products in connection with this rule. | |
