Final Rule: Standard for All Terrain Vehicles

The recently-enacted Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 ("CPSIA"), sets forth several requirements for all terrain vehicles ("ATVs"). Among these, the CPSIA requires the United States Consumer Product Safety Commission ("Commission" or "CPSC") to publish in the Federal Register as a mandatory consumer product safety standard the American National Standard for Four Wheel All-Terrain Vehicles Equipment Configuration, and Performance Requirements developed by the Specialty Vehicle Institute of America (American National Standard ANSI/SVIA 1-2007). This document satisfies that requirement and reviews other provisions of the CPSIA that apply to ATVs.
