TITLE: Revisions to Safety Standards for Non -Full-Size Baby Cribs and Play Yards  
AGENCY: Consumer Product Safety Commission  
ACTION: Direct final rule  
SUMMARY: The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) previously published consumer 
product safety standards for non -full-size baby cribs (NFS cribs) and play yards under section 104 
of the Consumer  Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (CPSIA). The standards incorporated by 
reference the ASTM voluntary standard for NFS cribs and play yards, with modifications. ASTM 
recently revised the voluntary standard for NFS cribs and play yards. The CPSIA prov ides a 
process for when a voluntary standards organization updates a standard that the Commission 
incorporated by reference in a section 104 rule. Consistent with that process, this direct final rule 
revises the mandatory standards for NFS cribs and play y ards to incorporate by reference the 
updated version of the ASTM standard.  
DATES: The rule is effective on 20 January 2020, unless CPSC receives a significant adverse 
comment by 22 November 2019. If CPSC receives such a comment, it will publish a notice in  the 
Federal Register, withdrawing this direct final rule before its effective date. The incorporation by 
reference of the publication listed in this rule is approved by the Director of the Federal Register as 
of 20 January 2020.
