Abstract: The CPSIA was enacted on August 14, 2008. Section 104(b) of the CPSIA requires the Commission to: (1) Examine and assess the effectiveness of voluntary consumer product safety standards for durable infant or toddler products, in consultation with representatives of consumer groups, juvenile product manufacturers, and independent child product engineers and experts; and (2) promulgate consumer product safety standards for durable infant or toddler products. Section 104(f)(2)(C) of the CPSIA specifically identifies ‘‘booster chairs’’ as a durable infant or toddler product. Pursuant to section 104(b)(1)(A) of the CPSIA, the Commission consulted with manufacturers, retailers, trade organizations, laboratories, consumer advocacy groups, consultants, and members of the public in the development of this notice of proposed rulemaking (NPR), largely through the ASTM process. the proposed rule would incorporate by reference the most recent booster seat voluntary standard developed by ASTM International, ASTM F2640–17ε1, Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Booster Seats, without modification.
