Final Rule; Standard for the Flammability of Children's Sleepwear: Sizes 0 Through 6X; Standard for the Flammability of Children's Sleepwear: Sizes 7 Through 14

Resumo

In accordance with the fiscal year 1999 appropriations legislation for the Consumer Product Safety Commission, the Commission is modifying certain amendments to the standards for the flammability of children's sleepwear, sizes 0 through 6X and sizes 7 through 14. As the appropriations legislation directed, the Commission previously proposed to revoke these amendments. Elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, the Commission is withdrawing that proposed revocation. The Commission is modifying the amendments to require that tight-fitting sleepwear bear a label and hangtag informing consumers why the garments should fit snugly. Also, elsewhere in this issue of the Federal Register, the Commission is correcting several references to a paragraph that was redesignated when the standards were amended in 1996. In that notice, the Commission is also clarifying the definition of infant garments.
