CPSC Updates Safety Standard for Non-Full-Size Baby Cribs

The Consumer Product Safety Commission is amending its children’s product safety standard for non-full-size baby cribs to incorporate the latest revisions to international standards, it said in a direct final rule. The standard, issued in 2010, had not been updated since, despite several revisions to ASTM standards for the products in the intervening years. Most of the changes affect testing requirements. The direct final rule takes effect Sept. 10, unless CPSC receives “significant adverse comment” by July 6.
