Changing Tables: Comment by December 13 on CPSC's NPR (PSL, 9/19/16) to create a Section 104 rule based on ASTM F2388-16. See the Federal Register notice at bit.ly/2cEfbOK.
Incident Follow-Ups: Comment by October 21 on CPSC's routine request to OMB for extension of information collection approval. See the Federal Register notice at bit.ly/2dGVGVR.
CPSC Documents: The agency updated its website after the September 26 edition of PSL, so many URLs changed. Thus some links in that issue did not work. The draft FY2017 Operating Plan is at bit.ly/2cKDAjO, and the FY2015 Annual Report is at bit.ly/2d3P01U. Previous CPSC URLs provided by PSL likely no longer will work either.
