Traduction automatique locale · Langue originale de la source
Résumé
The Consumer Product Safety Commission ("CPSC" or "Commission" or "we") is considering whether a new performance safety standard is needed to address an unreasonable risk of injury associated with table saws. We are conducting this proceeding under the authority of the Consumer Product Safety Act ("CPSA"), 15 U.S.C. 2051-2084. In the Federal Register of October 11, 2011 (76 FR 62678), we published an advance notice of proposed rulemaking ("ANPR"), inviting written comments concerning the risk of injury associated with table saw blade contact, regulatory alternatives, other possible means to address this risk, and other topics or issues. In response to a request from the Power Tool Institute, Inc. ("PTI"), on December 2, 2011, we granted a 60-day extension of the comment period until February 10, 2012 (76 FR 75504). PTI has requested an additional 30-day extension of the comment period and we are reopening the comment period for 30 days.\1\ ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
