Civil Penalties; Notice of Adjusted Maximum Amounts

In 1990 Congress enacted statutory amendments which increased the maximum civil penalty amounts that could be imposed under the Consumer Product Safety Act, the Federal Hazardous Substances Act and the Flammable Fabrics Act. The amendments also provided for periodic adjustments to those maximum amounts. As calculated in accordance with the amendments, the new amounts are $6,000 for each violation, with a maximum of $1,500,000 for any related series of violations.
