SUMMARY:
In the Federal Register of April 11, 2001, 66 FR 18738, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC” or “Commission”) invited comment on: An analysis conducted by CPSC staff on brand name-specific data on exposure to possible hydrocarbon-containing cosmetics; and an additional staff analysis of data available when the Commission issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (“NPR”) proposing child-resistant packaging requirements for household chemical and cosmetic products with viscosity less than 100 Saybolt Universal Seconds (“SUS”) containing 10 percent or more hydrocarbons, 65 FR 93 (January 3, 2000). In response to a request on behalf of the Cosmetic, Toiletry, and Fragrance Association to extend the comment period on these analyses for 60 days, the Commission is extending it for an additional 30 days, that is, through Monday, June 11, 2001.
