Tracking Labels for Children's Products (CPSIA)

On August 14, 2008, the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA) was signed into law. Section 103 requires that, effective August 14, 2009, the manufacturer of a children’s product must place permanent distinguishing marks on the product and its packaging that provide certain identifying information. On February 26, 2009, the CPSC published a Notice of Inquiry in the Federal Register requesting comments and information about implementation of this program. (Those written comments were due April 27, 2009).

The purpose of this forum is to offer the public an opportunity to present their comments and information to the CPSC staff in person. This event will provide an opportunity for attendees to briefly present relevant information, ideas, proposals, or concerns about the implementation of the tracking label program.
