Chairman Elliot F. Kaye
Vice Chairman Commissioner Robert S. Adler Marietta S. Robinson
Commissioner Commissioner Ann Marie Buerkle Joseph Mohorovic
Report to the President and Congress Pursuant to Section 209 of the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008
The United States Consumer Product Safety Commission (“CPSC” or “the Commission”) is submitting this report to the President, Congress, and the public, as required under section 27(j) (15 U.S.C. 2076(j)) of the Consumer Product Safety Act (“CPSA”), as amended by the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (“CPSIA”). The content of this report is specified in the CPSA, as amended by the CPSIA. The report describes many of the activities the CPSC performed to protect the public from hazardous consumer products in fiscal year 2014 (“2014”). Readers may also be interested in the CPSC’s 2014 Annual Performance Report, required by the Government Performance and Results Act and available on the CPSC’s website at: www.cpsc.gov/en/About-CPSC/Agency-Reports/Performance-and-Budget/.
The CPSC, established by Congress in 1972, is the federal regulatory body tasked with protecting children and families from unreasonable risks of injuries or death associated with consumer products. The Commission has been effective in reducing consumer product-related injury and death rates by using a wide range of strategies to identify and address product safety hazards. This report is organized around the five strategies noted below:
• Hazard Identification and Monitoring: collecting information and monitoring injury and death statistics related to the use of products under the CPSC’s jurisdiction;
• Safety Standards: participating in the development and strengthening of voluntary safety standards and developing mandatory standards;
• Compliance and Enforcement: enforcing compliance with standards through compliance activities, such as recalls or other corrective actions, and litigating when necessary;
• Public Outreach: educating consumers, families, foreign governments, and industry about product safety recalls, safety programs and alerts, emerging hazards, and safety standards; and
• Intergovernmental Coordination: coordinating work on product safety issues with other governmental stakeholders.

2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS Hazard Identification and Monitoring
Hazard Identification and Monitoring
The Commission, in fulfilling its mission to protect the public against unreasonable risks of injuries associated with consumer products, collects, reviews, and analyzes data on deaths, injuries, and societal costs associated with such products. This section describes the “Incidence of Injury and Effects to the Population” associated with products under the jurisdiction of the Commission. Four tables present summary data by totals and by age groups for: o product-related deaths; o product-related injuries; o percent of emergency department visits involving product-related injuries resulting in hospitalization; and o estimated costs of product-related injuries.
Product-Related Deaths (Table 1). The CPSC collects mortality data through contracts with each state. The CPSC reviews about 8,000 death certificates each year, covering unintentional product-related deaths from all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The CPSC purchases death certificates that have a high probability of consumer product involvement. However, due to resource constraints, we cannot purchase all product-related death certificates, and because the death certificates we purchase sometimes fail to identify the products involved, the total number of actual product-related deaths may be higher than the number we report. Although the deaths in this table represent product involvement, that involvement does not necessarily indicate causality.
Product-Related Injuries (Tables 2 and 3). Each year, the CPSC collects information about product-related injuries through its National Electronic Injury Surveillance System (“NEISS”). This unique system provides statistically valid national estimates of product-related injuries from a probability sample of hospital emergency departments (“EDs”) and is the foundation for many CPSC activities. These injury reports not only provide the means for estimating the magnitude of consumer product-related injuries in the United States, but the reports also provide a resource for gathering additional information concerning the nature and potential cause of accidents. Several foreign governments have modeled their national injury data-collection systems after the CPSC’s system. Annually, NEISS supplies information about almost 400,000 product-related cases from a sample of about 100 hospitals. The hospitals transmit incident information electronically, and in some cases, the data are available within 24 hours after an incident. Table 2 presents data on estimates of injuries associated with consumer products that resulted in hospital ED treatment. Table 3 presents estimates of the percent of such injuries for which the treated individuals were subsequently hospitalized. Although the injuries in these tables represent product involvement, that involvement does not necessarily indicate causality.
Cost of Product-Related Injuries (Table 4). To estimate costs of hospital ED-treated, consumer product injuries, the CPSC employs its Revised Injury Cost Model. The costs noted in this report do not include the costs of consumer product-related injuries that were treated elsewhere, such as in physicians’ offices, health maintenance organizations, and freestanding urgent care clinics. Estimates also do not include the economic losses of fatalities associated with the use of consumer products. These losses may be substantial. Furthermore, cost estimates are not available for many acute and chronic illnesses associated with exposure to chemical hazards. The number and costs of these illnesses are expected to be large.
Products are aggregated into 15 product groupings for the deaths, injuries, and cost data presented (see pp. 7–8). These products are described in the NEISS Coding Manual, Directorate for Epidemiology, U.S. CPSC. The NEISS Coding Manual can be found online at:
2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 1 Hazard Identification and Monitoring
www.cpsc.gov/Media/Documents/Research--Statistics/NEISS-Injury-Data/NEISS- Coding-Manual.
Additional data are collected and analyzed to develop more detailed estimates concerning products for which Commission remedial action has been considered. Based on interviews with victims or witnesses, the Commission identifies causes of incidents, including the interactions among the persons involved, the products, and the environment. Using all of the available data, Commission staff periodically prepares hazard analysis reports for selected products.

2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 8 Safety Standards
SAFETY STANDARDS
The Commission helps reduce consumer product hazards through the development of mandatory safety standards and staff involvement in the development and strengthening of voluntary safety standards. This section presents information about: • mandatory safety standards in effect; • voluntary safety standards for which staff provided monitoring or technical support; and • research activities conducted by staff.
1) Mandatory Safety Standards: Mandatory standards are developed through rulemaking. Under most of the acts the CPSC enforces, if a voluntary standard exists, by law, the Commission may not issue a mandatory standard, unless it finds that the voluntary standard will not eliminate or adequately reduce the risk of injury or death, or determines that it is unlikely that there will be substantial compliance with the voluntary standard. During the rulemaking process, staff seeks input from all interested parties, including consumers, industry, and other government agencies. Mandatory standards generally are expressed in the form of performance requirements. Examples of products for which mandatory standards are under development include: portable generators, upholstered furniture, recreational off- highway vehicles (“ROVs”), rare earth magnet sets, table saws, and firepots and fuel gels.
On August 14, 2008, the President signed into law the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act of 2008 (“CPSIA”). The CPSIA directs the Commission to implement numerous rulemakings and other official Commission actions intended to enhance the safety of consumer products. CPSIA mandated more than 40 separate rules or rulemaking activities. Examples of rulemakings, related rulemaking activities, and official actions mandated or initiated pursuant to the CPSIA include: lead content determinations and exclusions; interpretative rules for children’s products, children’s toys, and a child care article; testing and labeling of consumer products for certification purposes; consumer registration forms; laboratory requirements for children’s product certification purposes; and new safety standards and accreditation requirements for durable infant or toddler products.
2) Voluntary Safety Standards: The CPSC’s statutory authority requires it to rely on voluntary standards rather than issue mandatory standards whenever compliance with a voluntary standard would eliminate or adequately reduce the risk of injury identified and it is likely there will be substantial compliance with the voluntary standard. CPSC staff works with organizations that facilitate the development of voluntary standards. Staff participates in the development of voluntary standards at a number of stages in the process. Staff first submits recommendations to voluntary standards organizations for new standards or modifications of existing standards. After receiving CPSC staff recommendations, organizations may conduct technical assessments (as appropriate); publish a proposal for public comment; receive and evaluate comments; or publish a standard. This process may take months to several years. Staff participates in the process by providing expert advice, technical assistance, and information based on data analyses of how deaths, injuries, or incidents occurred. The CPSC’s voluntary standards policy currently does not permit staff to vote on proposed changes or new standards. Staff’s comments are, however, considered throughout the process.
The CPSIA added authority for the Commission, in certain cases, to specify by rule that a product or product class that does not comply with a voluntary standard is a substantial product hazard under the CPSA. This facilitates obtaining corrective actions when products are found in commerce that do not comply with the voluntary standards.
3) Research Activities: CPSC staff conducts and sponsors many research and study projects in furtherance of its activities to improve product safety and reduce or eliminate potential 2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 9 Safety Standards
hazards associated with consumer products. Staff may use the findings from these projects to develop and refine positions on voluntary and mandatory product safety standards. Examples include research on adult portable bed rails, fireworks, technology to mitigate cooking fires, collaborative research with other federal agencies on nanotechnology, portable generators, seniors’ hazards, furniture and television tipovers, and recreational off-highway vehicles.

2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 12 Safety Standards
Mandatory Rulemaking Activity in 2014
The following voluntary standards became mandatory consumer product safety standards in 2014:
• Durable Infant or Toddler Products - The Danny Keysar Child Product Safety Notification Act, Section 104 of the CPSIA, requires the CPSC to promulgate consumer product safety standards for durable infant or toddler products. These standards are to be “substantially the same as” applicable voluntary standards or more stringent than the voluntary standard if the Commission determines that more stringent requirements would further reduce the risk of injury associated with the product. In 2014, the CPSC promulgated four safety standards for children’s products:
o On April 28 2010, the Commission issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (“NPR”) for bassinets and cradles. 75 FR 22303. The NPR proposed to incorporate by reference the voluntary standard, ASTM F2194-07aε1. The Commission published a supplemental notice of proposed rulemaking (“SNPR”) on October 18, 2012. 77 FR 64055. The SNPR proposed to incorporate the voluntary standard, ASTM F2194-12, with: (1) Modifications to sections pertaining to scope and terminology and the stability test procedure, and (2) the addition of new provisions for a segmented mattress flatness test and a removable bed stability requirement. The Final Rule for Bassinets and Cradles incorporates the voluntary standard, ASTM F2194-13, by reference, with the following modifications and additions: a clarification to the scope of the bassinet/cradle standard; a change to the pass/fail criterion for the mattress flatness test; an exemption from the mattress flatness requirement for bassinets that are less than 15 inches across; the addition of a removable bed stability requirement; and a change to the stability test procedure requiring the use of a newborn CAMI dummy rather than an infant CAMI dummy. The Final Rule was published in the Federal Register on October 23, 2013, with an effective date of April 23, 2014.
o On April 5, 2013, the Commission issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (“NPR”) for soft infant and toddler carriers. 78 FR 20511. The NPR proposed to adopt as a mandatory standard the current voluntary standard for soft infant and toddler carriers, ASTM F2236-13, “Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Soft Infant and Toddler Carriers” (ASTM F2236-13), without alteration. The Final Rule for soft infant and toddler carriers incorporated ASTM F2236-14, by reference, without alteration, and was published in the Federal Register on March 28, 2014 and became effective September 29, 2014.
o On December 10, 2012, the Commission issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (“NPR”) for bedside sleepers (77 FR 73345). The NPR proposed to incorporate by reference the voluntary standard, ASTM F2906-12, “Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Bedside Sleepers,” with certain changes to provisions in the voluntary standard to strengthen the ASTM standard. The Final Rule incorporates ASTM F2906-13 by reference, and requires bedside sleepers to be tested to 16 C.F.R. part 1218, the Safety Standard for Bassinets and Cradles (bassinet standard). The Final Rule was published in the Federal Register on January 15, 2014, with an effective date of July 15, 2014.
o On December 10, 2012, the Commission issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (“NPR”) for hand-held infant carriers. 77 FR 73354. The NPR proposed to incorporate by reference the then current voluntary standard, ASTM F2050-12,
2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 13 Safety Standards
Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Hand-Held Infant Carriers, with certain modifications to strengthen the ASTM standard. One proposed modification provided for a change in the warning label to better address suffocation and restraint-related hazards. The other proposed modification addressed the testing procedures for the carry handle auto-locking requirement and specified using an aluminum cylinder as the surrogate for the occupant of the carrier rather than a CAMI Mark II 6-month infant dummy (“CAMI dummy”). The Final Rule incorporated by reference the most recent version of the ASTM standard, ASTM F2050-13a, with one modification—a clarification of the definition of “hand-held infant carrier,” to include a specific reference to both “rigid-sided” and “semi-rigid-sided” products. The Final Rule was published in the Federal Register on Dec 6, 2013, with an effective date of June 6, 2014.
The following mandatory standards were revised, amended, or accepted in 2014:
• Automatic Residential Garage Door Operators, 16 C.F.R. part 1211. In 1990, Public Law 101-608 mandated that the entrapment protection provisions of UL 325 be considered a consumer product safety rule. The Commission issued regulations for GDOs that set forth the entrapment protection provisions of UL 325 in effect at that time. 16 C.F.R. part 1211. The statute provides that if UL revises UL 325, then UL must notify the CPSC and “the revision shall be incorporated in the consumer product safety rule ... unless, within 30 days of such notice, the Commission notifies the Laboratories that the Commission has determined that such revision does not carry out the purposes of [the original entrapment protection requirements].” On December 2, 2013, the Commission voted unanimously (3-0) to approve staff’s recommendation to allow the revision to Underwriters Laboratories, Inc.’s (“UL”) “Standard for Safety for Door, Drapery, Gate, Louver, and Window Operators and Systems,” UL 325, to be included in the Commission’s “Safety Standard for Automatic Residential Garage Door Operators,” 16 C.F.R. part 1211.
• Durable Infant or Toddler Products - In accordance with section 104(b) of the CPSIA, the CPSC has published consumer product safety standards for numerous durable infant or toddler products, including infant walkers, infant swings, and play yards. The standards for infant walkers and infant swings incorporated by reference the ASTM voluntary standards associated with those products, with some modifications; the standard for play yards incorporated by reference the ASTM voluntary standard for play yards, with three clarifications. In August 2011, Congress enacted Public Law No. 112–28, which sets forth a process for updating standards that the Commission has issued under the authority of section 104(b) of the CPSIA. In accordance with that process, the CPSC published direct final rules, revising the mandatory consumer product safety standards for the following voluntary standards to incorporate by reference more recent versions of the applicable ASTM standards. The ASTM revisions made the voluntary standards nearly the same as the mandatory standards that the CPSC had issued previously.
o For infant bath seats, toddler beds, and full-size cribs, the CPSC published a final rule that incorporates by reference ASTM F1967-11a. ASTM notified us on September 25, 2013, that ASTM has revised ASTM’s infant bath seat standard again; the current ASTM standard is ASTM F1967-13. On April 20, 2011, the Commission published a final rule for toddler beds that incorporated by reference ASTM F1821-09, Standard Consumer Safety Specification for Toddler Beds, with several modifications to make the standard more stringent. On September 25, 2013, ASTM notified the Commission that ASTM has revised ASTM F1821 again and has published a new version, ASTM F1821-13. On July 31, 2012, the Commission published a final rule that incorporated
2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 14 Safety Standards
by reference the revised full-size crib standard, ASTM F1169-11, as the Commission’s standard for full-size cribs. 77 FR 4542. As noted above, ASTM notified us on September 25, 2013, that ASTM again has revised ASTM’s full-size crib standard; the current ASTM standard is ASTM F1169-13.The Direct Final Rule for infant bath seats, toddler beds, and full-size cribs was published in the Federal Register on March 28, 2014, with an effective date of September 29, 2014.
o On May 20, 2013, the Commission issued a notice of proposed rulemaking (“NPR”) for carriages and strollers. 78 FR 29279. The NPR proposed to incorporate by reference the voluntary standard, ASTM 833-13, “Standard Consumer Safety Performance Specification for Carriages and Strollers,” with certain changes to provisions in the voluntary standard to strengthen the ASTM standard. The Final Rule for carriages and strollers incorporated an updated version of that standard (ASTM F833-13b) and was published in the Federal Register on Mar 10, 2014, with an effective date of September 10, 2015.
The following mandatory Final Rules were promulgated in 2014:
• Magnet Sets. The Commission published an NPR on September 4, 2012 to address the unreasonable risk of injury associated with magnet sets. The NPR proposed a standard that would require magnets from magnet sets containing at least one magnet that fits within the CPSC's small parts cylinder to have a flux index of 50 kG2 mm2 or less. The proposed rule sought comment on whether the rule should include magnets sold individually that could be aggregated into a magnet set. The Final Rule modified the proposal to include individual magnets marketed or intended for the same uses as a magnet set, i.e., as a manipulative or construction item for entertainment, such as puzzle working, sculpture building, mental stimulation, or stress relief. The Final Rule published in the Federal Register on October 3, 2014 and became effective effective on April 1, 2015.
• The Commission approved publication of a notice of proposed rulemaking (“NPR”) to revise the supplemental definition of “strong sensitizer” (proposed definition or proposed rule). 78 FR 15660 (March 12, 2013). The proposed definition of “strong sensitizer” eliminated redundancy, removes certain subjective factors, incorporated new and anticipated technology, ranked the criteria for classification of strong sensitizers in the order of importance, defines criteria for “severity of reaction,” and provided for the use of a weight-of-evidence approach to determine whether a substance is a strong sensitizer. The Final Rule made some modifications based on public comment, and was published in the Federal Register on February 14, 2014 with an effective date of March 17, 2014.
• On June 25, 2012, the Commission published an NPR to revoke certain regulations (16 C.F.R. 1500.18(a)(5) and 16 C.F.R. 1500.47) pertaining to toy caps and toy guns not intended for use with caps, replacing them with the provisions of ASTM F963 which were assessed as more stringent than the existing regulations. Additionally, with the proposed revocation of 16 C.F.R. § 1500.18(a)(5), CPSC also proposed revoking the exemptions from the requirements of 16 C.F.R. § 1500.18(a)(5) contained in 16 C.F.R. § 1500.86(a)(6). The Final Rule codified these changes, and published in the Federal Register on November 7, 2013, with an effective date of December 9, 2013.
2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 15 Safety Standards
2) Voluntary Safety Standards
The CPSC issues the Voluntary Standards Tracking and Access Report (“VSTAR”) on a semi- annual basis. The report includes the objective of each standard under development, the name of the employee involved in the activity, the status of the standard, and the next step planned in the standard development process. A summary from the VSTAR FY 2014 annual report is provided below for convenience. The Web address for the report is: http://www.cpsc.gov//Global/Regulations-Laws-and-Standards/Voluntary-Standards/Voluntary- Standards-Reports/VoluntaryStandardsActivitiesFY2014AnnualReport.pdf.
Thirty-six new, revised, or reaffirmed voluntary safety standards, for which CPSC staff provided monitoring or technical support, were completed during the period from October 1, 2013 to September 30, 2014. These voluntary safety standards address: stationary activity centers, batteries, bicycles (three standards), blind cords, booster seats, candles, high chairs (two standards), commercial cribs, clothes dryers (two standards), drywall, electric heaters (two standards), helmets, infant bouncers, frame infant carriers (two standards), soft infant carriers (two standards), infant sling carriers (three standards), inflatable air mattresses, nanotechnology, off-road vehicles, phthalates, soccer goals, strollers, swimming pool alarms, trampolines, tree stands (two standards), and unvented alcohol appliances.
In total, from October 1, 2013 to September 30, 2014, CPSC staff provided technical support (summarized in the VSTAR) or monitored the development of 83 voluntary safety standards activities. During FY 2014, CPSC staff’s involvement in voluntary standards focused on the voluntary standards activities associated with implementing the CPSIA, Pub .L. No.110-314. Voluntary standards development activities are handled primarily by three standards development/coordinating organizations: ASTM International (previously called the American Society for Testing and Materials), the American National Standards Institute (“ANSI”), and Underwriters Laboratories Inc. (“UL”). The standards that are developed using the procedures of these organizations provide safety provisions addressing potential hazards associated with consumer products found in homes, schools, and recreation areas.

The report, 2013 Fireworks Annual Report, Fireworks-Related Deaths, Emergency Department- Treated Injuries, and Enforcement Activities During 2013, is available on the CPSC website at: www.cpsc.gov/en/Media/Documents/Research--Statistics/Injury-Statistics/Fuel-Lighters-and- Fireworks/2013-Fireworks-Annual- Report/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=Fuel%2c+Lighters+and+Fireworks +Injury+Statistics.
2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 17 Safety Standards
Staff also reviewed voluntary standards and scientific literature, constructed testing chambers and carried out preliminary testing to develop alternate test methods to measure the energy release of aerial fireworks.
Firepots: Staff continued characterization work on firepots and fuels intended to be used with firepots to support developing a notice of proposed rulemaking (“NPR”).
Furniture and Television Tool-Less Installation of Anchors and Restraints: During 2014, staff continued an evaluation of several tool-free anchoring strategies using materials that do not require tools for installation and/or do not damage walls. The goal of this strategy is to increase the likelihood that consumers will be able to install anchors on their furniture and televisions.
Lead in Paint and Substrate Materials: Staff continued to study the applicability of different types of x-ray fluorescence (“XRF”) for measuring lead in paint and substrate materials.
Nanotechnology:
Airborne Nanoparticles from Consumer Products: Researchers from the National Institute for Standards and Technology (“NIST”) completed a final report on testing to determine the release of nanoparticles into indoor air from a range of paints and coating materials. This project is the second phase of an initial agreement signed in 2011, and the project will meet an important objective in developing methods to distinguish engineered nanoparticles from nanoparticles that may be produced incidentally in the home. A final report for the 2011 phase of this research project has been completed, and CPSC has received an interim report describing the results of the 2012 phase 2 study. In 2014, NIST submitted a report to CPSC staff outlining new approaches for abrading products and conducts chamber measurements for airborne particles. NIST researchers are working with the ASTM Committee E56 on Nanotechnology to incorporate test methods into the voluntary standards that were developed from their efforts.
Carbon Nanotubes in Consumer Products: NIST, under a Memorandum of Understanding (“MOU”) with the CPSC, continued its testing of selected consumer products containing nanotubes. This work is also being used to support the International Life Sciences Institute (“ILSI”) Nanorelease project that is developing methods to test the release of carbon nanotubes from a variety of product matrices. In 2014, NIST submitted an interim report outlining the research plans for this project to CPSC staff.
Enhancement of the National Library of Medicine (“NLM”) Household Products Database: The National Library of Medicine (“NLM”), under an existing MOU with the CPSC, continued its efforts to identify approaches to enhance the Household Products Database (“HPD”) and its associated websites. Through the work conducted under the MOU, NLM is developing information that will provide consumers and scientists with knowledge about the uses of nanomaterials in products and the health effects of nanoparticles. The information can be found at the following links: toxtown.nlm.nih.gov/text_version/chemicals.php?id=67 and sis.nlm.nih.gov/enviro/nanotechnology.html. The website continues to be updated with new information for the general public on the use and implications of nanomatechnology.
Nanomaterials in Consumer Products (Exposure and Risk Assessment): Staff continued to support work involving an interagency agreement (“IAG”) among the National Science Foundation (“NSF”), the U.S. EPA, and the CPSC. The NSF, in collaboration with NIST, completed a review of studies related to previous findings and experimental procedures for
2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 18 Safety Standards
quantifying release of, and exposure to, nanomaterials from treated products. A draft model that can quantify risks from nanomaterials is under development and review. In 2014, the staff received an interim report characterizing the results of the testing of the nanocomposites. The NSF and EPA funded Duke Center for the Environmental Implications of NanoTechnology (“CEINT”) is using the results of this study in the development of a computer model to predict the potential health effects of nanomaterials.
Nanomaterials in Aerosol Products: The National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (“NIOSH”) completed a manuscript describing the results of an investigation into nanoparticles incorporated into inks and toners used in home office equipment. The abstract and manuscript are located at this link: informahealthcare.com/doi/abs/10.3109/08958378.2014.908987. NIOSH conducted this testing and the testing included quantification of the concentrations and characteristics of airborne nanoparticles released during use. The success of this project has resulted in additional studies, and an interim report outlining the progress was submitted to the CPSC staff in 2014. Additional work related to this study that investigated the potential health effects of nanoparticles was published in 2014. The abstract can be found at this link: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/25387250.
Nanomaterials in Products and Public Health: The NSF completed an interim report on the results of a study on the release of nanomaterials from clothing during consumer-use scenarios. The study was conducted under an IAG with the NSF. In 2014, NSF submitted to CPSC staff an annual interim report describing the progress of the research. In 2012, the staff signed an IAG with the U.S. EPA to evaluate the release of nanoparticles from wood products. In 2014, EPA released a report outlining this research and can be found at this link: nepis.epa.gov/Exe/ZyPDF.cgi?Dockey=P100LJWI.txt.
Nanosilver in Consumer (Children’s) Products: Work based on research begun in 2012 continued. In 2012, scientists at the Environmental Protection Agency (“EPA”) and Virginia Tech completed a draft report on the use of nanosilver in selected consumer products. Research confirmed the presence of silver nanoparticles in a wide range of consumer products primarily used by children. A manuscript describing the results of these studies and the abstract can be found at this link: pubs.acs.org/doi/abs/10.1021/es4015844. In 2013, scientists from EPA and Virginia Tech developed a second manuscript about the use of nanosilver in selected consumer products, and the second manuscript was under agency review as of September 30, 2013. This manuscript, published in 2014, and the abstract is available at this link: www.maneyonline.com/doi/abs/10.1179/2049396714Y.0000000070. Staff is working with ASTM to incorporate the work from this manuscript into a voluntary standard to measure nanosilver released from textiles. In 2012, CPSC staff signed an interagency agreement with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) to identify releases of nanosilver and other nanomaterials from various food contact products. In 2014, FDA developed a draft manuscript describing the work completed as part of this agreement.
Nanotechnology Annual Data Update: Staff purchased reports describing the commercialization of nanomaterials and updated the internal database of products that contain nanomaterials. CPSC staff summarizied this information in a draft annual update that also includes a summary of staff activities related to nanotechnology. Following a meeting of the International Life Sciences Institute (“ILSI”) Nano Release Consumer Products Project, hosted by CPSC staff in 2012, CPSC, in collaboration with NIST staff, will conduct testing and methods development activities that are part of an international effort led by the ILSI steering committee. In 2014, NIST staff submitted an interim report describing the research plan for the product analysis to CPSC staff.

2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 21 Compliance and Enforcement
Compliance and Enforcement
The CPSC learns about potential product defects and risks from many sources, including incident reports, consumer complaints, the agency’s Hotline, and SaferProducts.gov. In addition, firms are required legally to report to the Commission potential product defects, hazards or violations of standards. The Commission works with companies to remove products from the marketplace when they violate mandatory safety standards or have a defect which creates a substantial risk of injury. This section presents: • Voluntary recall orders taken by importers or manufacturers; • Letters of Advice to importers and manufacturers; and • Commission determinations and judicial actions.
1) Voluntary Recall Orders Taken by Importers or Manufacturers: Through investigations of potential product defects, CPSC headquarters and field staff identify defective products not covered by regulations. In addition, firms, by law, are required to report potential product hazards or violations of standards to the Commission. When a recall is necessary, Compliance staff negotiates with the responsible firm. In 2014, CPSC staff completed 387 cooperative recalls (100 percent voluntary) of products that either violated mandatory standards, or were defective and presented a substantial risk of injury to the public. If a firm refuses to recall a product voluntarily, the CPSC may file an administrative complaint seeking to require a recall. This section lists the voluntary recalls announced in 2014 that companies performed to address possible hazards.
The CPSC developed the Fast-Track program to streamline the process of recalls for firms willing and prepared to recall their products quickly. Because every defective product could present a risk of injury or death, removing hazardous products from the marketplace faster can prevent more injuries and save lives. In 2014, 211 of the total 387 recalls were under the Fast-Track program. Recalls under the Fast-Track program are conducted without the need for time-consuming hazard analyses. In 2014, Fast-Track recalls were initiated within 20 days of a firm’s report to the CPSC 100 percent of the time.
2) Letters of Advice to Importers or Manufacturers: For products regulated by the CPSC, the Commission issues a Letter of Advice (“LOA”) when staff identifies a violation of a mandatory standard. LOAs advise the company of the violation and the nature of the necessary corrective action (to correct future production (“CFP”); to stop sale and CFP; or to recall, stop sale, and CFP). This section lists the LOAs sent to importers and manufacturers in 2014, where the Commission received a response from the company confirming the violation and the Commission decided that the company voluntarily completed corrective action to remedy the hazard.
Commission Determinations and Judicial Actions: When companies knowingly fail to report potential product hazards or violations of standards to the Commission, as required by law, the CPSC can seek civil penalties in U.S. courts. In 2014, the CPSC negotiated out-of-court settlements in which three companies voluntarily agreed to pay $4.425 million in civil penalties to the U.S. Treasury. On May 14, 2014, the government filed a consent decree of civil penalty and permanent injunctive relief requiring payment of a civil penalty of $750,000 and injunctive relief that includes compliance measures. On May14, 2014, U.S. District Judge J. Randal Hall issued an order that the consent decree constitutes a final judgment and order.
2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 22 Compliance and Enforcement
3) Other tools used for enforcement may include civil actions under either section 12 or section 15 and pursuing criminal cases, where appropriate. Enforcement and litigation activities are listed in several tables in this section of the report.
2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 23 Compliance and Enforcement Voluntary Recall Orders
1) Voluntary Recall Actions Taken by Importers or Manufacturers
Headquarters and field staff identifies defective products not covered by regulations through their investigations of potential product defects. In addition, firms are required by law to report to the Commission about potential product hazards or violations of standards. When a recall is necessary, Compliance staff negotiates with the responsible firm. In 2014, CPSC staff completed 387 cooperative recalls (100 percent voluntary) of products that either violated mandatory standards or were defective and presented a substantial risk of injury to the public. If a firm refuses to recall a product voluntarily, the CPSC may file an administrative complaint seeking to require a recall. This section lists the voluntary recalls announced in 2014 that were performed by companies to address possible hazards.

October 2013
Schneider Electric Recalls APC Surge Protectors Due to Fire Hazard This recall involves APC 7 and 8 series SurgeArrest surge protectors manufactured before 2003. The surge protectors can overheat, smoke and melt, posing a fire hazard.
Trail Crest Recalls Children’s Hooded Sweatshirts Due to Strangulation Hazard This recall involves Trail Crest brand boys and girls hooded sweatshirts sold in sizes x-small, small and medium. The hoodies and jackets have drawstrings through the hood or neck that pose a strangulation hazard to young children. In February 1996, CPSC issued guidelines about drawstrings in children's upper outerwear. In 1997, those guidelines were incorporated into a voluntary standard. Then, in July 2011, based on the guidelines and voluntary standard, CPSC issued a federal regulation.

CPSC's actions demonstrate a commitment to helping prevent children from strangling or getting entangled on neck and waist drawstrings in upper outerwear, such as jackets and sweatshirts.
Pure Baby Organics Boys Hoodie Recalled by Chantique’s Corp. Due To Strangulation Hazard This recall involves a Pure Baby Organic boy’s hoodie made of 100 percent cotton. The sweaters have a drawstring around the neck area, which poses a strangulation hazard to children. Drawstrings can become entangled or caught on playground slides, hand rails, school bus doors or other moving objects, posing a significant strangulation or an entanglement hazard to children. In February 1996, CPSC issued guidelines about drawstrings in children's upper outerwear. In 1997, those guidelines were incorporated into a voluntary standard. Then, in July 2011, based on the guidelines and voluntary standard, CPSC issued a federal regulation. CPSC's actions demonstrate a commitment to helping prevent children from strangling or getting entangled on neck and waist drawstrings in upper outerwear, such as jackets and sweatshirts.

2) Letters of Advice to Importers or Manufacturers
For all products regulated by the CPSC, the Commission issues a Letter of Advice (“LOA”) when staff identifies a violation of a mandatory standard. LOAs advise companies of the violation and the nature of the necessary corrective action: to correct future production (“CFP”); to stop sale and CFP; or to recall, stop sale, and CFP. This section lists the LOAs sent to importers and manufacturers in 2014, where the Commission received a response from the company confirming the violation, and the Commission decided that the company voluntarily completed corrective action to remedy the hazard.

2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 161 Public Outreach
PUBLIC OUTREACH
The Commission communicates with the public about product-related hazards through print, broadcast, and online media; its Hotline; Neighborhood Safety Network and other listservs; partnerships and events; and other outreach activities. The Commission also meets with stakeholders to discuss matters related to the mission of the CPSC. This section presents information on many of the activities used to provide safety information to consumers, industry and other stakeholders in 2014 through: • consumer outreach; • dissemination of technical information; and • cooperation between Commission officials and stakeholders.
1) Consumer Outreach: The CPSC alerts the public through about 400 recall announcements each year, print and video news releases, public service announcements, publications, national and local television and radio appearances, the CPSC Hotline, Neighborhood Safety Network, and listservs. The CPSC also communicates with the public through various online media, including:
• CPSC websites (www.CPSC.gov/and in Spanish, www.Recalls.gov (a joint site with other federal agencies), www.ATVSafety.gov, www.PoolSafely.gov, www.SaferProducts.gov); • CPSC information centers (Twelve centers including: cribs, CO and generators, drywall, magnets, poison prevention, resale/thrift stores, window coverings); • OnSafety blog (www.CPSC.gov/OnSafety); • recall widget (www.CPSC.gov/cgi-bin/javascripts/widgetrss.html); • phone app (www.cpsc.gov/en/Newsroom/Subscribe/CPSC-Mobile/); and • social media sites (Flickr, Foursquare, Google+, Twitter/and in Spanish, Slideshare, YouTube/and in Spanish,) including interactive applications Google Hang-outs and Twitter parties.
The number of visits to the CPSC’s website, www.CPSC.gov, has grown rapidly from about 200,000 visits in 1997, to tens of millions of visits per year. The increase is due in part to the new CPSC 2.0 social media initiative, including YouTube, Twitter, Flickr, the OnSafety blog, the recall widget and a new, Spanish language presence on CPSC.gov, Twitter and YouTube.
In recent years, the CPSC website, www.CPSC.gov, was redesigned to widen and speed public access to important safety information. The goal of the redesign was to enhance the user experience, improve navigation and search functionality, and streamline the content management and posting processes.
The CPSC also alerts the public through other outreach activities, such as the Neighborhood Safety Network (“NSN”). This is a grassroots program that provides timely, lifesaving information to about 9,500 organizations and individuals who, in turn, share CPSC safety posters, videos and news alerts with underserved consumers who otherwise might be unlikely to hear or receive information from the CPSC.
The Hotline is a toll-free service that allows consumers to report product complaints or product-related injuries, learn about recalls and safety hazards, and obtain safety publications.
2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 162 Public Outreach Consumer Outreach
In 2014, the Hotline received more than 98,000 calls; 3,264 incidents were reported; requests for more than 367,000 publications were fulfilled; and 5,878 e-mails were processed.
The National Injury Information Clearinghouse provides data to the public in response to more than 1,000 requests each year. It also alerts manufacturers to potential hazards associated with their products, providing them with consumer complaints, reported incidents, and incident investigations involving their products.
In December 2008, the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act (“VGB”), which addresses the hazards of child drowning and drain entrapment, went into effect. Since 2010, the CPSC has awarded an annual contract to develop and implement a comprehensive information and education campaign that teaches pool and spa safety steps that stress prevention of drowning and entrapment by engaging stakeholders as partners at the national and grassroots levels. Child safety experts work on public and residential drowning prevention programs for parents and children, and industry organizations share VGB compliance information with pool and spa owners and operators.
2) Dissemination of Technical Information: As part of the CPSC’s research activities and other support work, the Commission develops many technical reports and presentations to present findings and share ideas. These documents are very useful to other researchers and industry. The reports listed in this section were developed in 2014, and are available on the CPSC’s website.
3) Cooperation between Commission Officials and External Stakeholders: In the course of the year, the Commissioners and staff at the CPSC held meetings with consumers, industry, and the public on matters related to the mission of the CPSC. A list of meetings of “substantial interest” for 2014 is provided in this report. CPSC’s Meetings Policy defines “substantial interest” as “any issue that is likely to be the subject of a regulatory or policy decision by the Commission.” The Meetings Policy requires CPSC staff and Commissioners to: (1) announce meetings in advance on the Public Calendar; (2) hold meetings that are open to the public unless certain specified exceptions apply; and (3) submit meeting summaries to the Office of the Secretary. To access the Public Calendar, visit: www.cpsc.gov/Newsroom/Public-Calendar/.

1) Consumer Outreach
For more detail, visit the electronic version of this document at: http://www.cpsc.gov//Global/About-CPSC/Reports/Annual-Reports/FY14AnnualReport.pdf to follow the links provided below.
Reached Consumers on Product-Related Hazards In 2014, CPSC obtained impressions at the following levels:
Import Safety About 3.5 billion impressions related to messages on import safety were achieved through print, broadcast, and online media outreach. This number is significantly larger than estimates due to significant coverage of recalls of several imported products.
Fire Hazards About 2 billion impressions related to fire safety messages were achieved through newspaper stories, radio stories, social media outreach, TV appearances and video broadcasts. Several recalls of millions of units with fire hazards more than doubled the exposures from 2013.
Carbon Monoxide (“CO”) Hazards About 191 million impressions related to carbon monoxide safety messages were achieved through newspaper stories, radio stories, social media outreach, TV appearances and video broadcasts.
Children’s and Other Hazards About 3.68 billion impressions related to children’s product safety messages were achieved through newspaper stories, radio stories, social media outreach, TV appearances, and video broadcasts.
Conducted Public Information Efforts In 2014, CPSC staff conducted the following public information efforts:
Back to School Safety: CPSC used several communication tools to reach out to schools and families regarding Back-to-School safety. CPSC distributed links to CPSC’s Back-to-School safety YouTube video and the Back-to-School safety checklist through social media platforms. CPSC staff posted resources to its website under the Safety Guides tab (www.CPSC.gov/Safety- Education/Safety-Guides) that include sport and recreation safety information, such as resources for bicycle, helmet, and trampoline safety. Also, staff presented school safety information to school administrators and owners, and federal partners monthly through the National Youth and Consumer Safety Council (“The Safety Council”). Staff also distributed safety resources at the National Urban League Conference and the Tom Joyner Family Reunion conference. Through other media formats and social media, staff was able to obtain more than an 8 million additional impressions on recalls for products such as bicycles, trampolines, water bottles, scooters, and children’s toys. CPSC also provided federal, state, and local partners, including the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (“NHTSA”), Safe Kids, and the Bicycle Helmet Institute, with school safety recall information on playgrounds and bicycles.
Bicycle/Helmet Safety: CPSC staff worked with the National Youth and Consumer Safety Council (“The Safety Council”), NHTSA, and other state and local partners to disseminate bicycle and bicycle helmet safety information and recalls. Also, CPSC’s bicycle and bicycle helmet safety publications including “Sprocketman” coloring book and “Which Helmet for
2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 164 Public Outreach Consumer Outreach
Which Activity” were distributed to school administrators and parents’ associations by CPSC staff at school, daycare, and minority outreach conferences including the National Urban League and Tom Joyner Family reunion exhibit. CPSC issued bicycle/helmet and bicycle accessory press releases and distributed CPSC Bicycle Safety blogs, Tweets and disseminated the Back-to-School safety video to news media. Bicycle and bicycle helmet safety information was also highlighted in Back-to-School and Holiday Toy safety messages reaching more than 8 million people.
CO Alarms: Throughout 2014, CPSC stressed the importance of installing CO alarms and replacing batteries in them annually. In two separate news releases, when Daylight Savings Time ended in November 2013, and when it began in March 2014, CPSC urged consumers to replace batteries in their CO alarms annually.
Fireworks Safety: On June 26, 2014, the CPSC launched its annual fireworks safety campaign on the National Mall in Washington, DC. New death and injury data showed an estimated 7,400 consumers were injured by fireworks during the 30 days surrounding July 4 in 2013. There were eight firework-related fatalities reported in 2013. A news conference was held on the grounds of the Washington Monument with federal partners present, including U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives and the Department of Transportation’s Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration. Prior to the press conference, Acting Chairman Adler taped sound-bites for CPSC’s video news release (“VNR”) fed to stations nationwide via satellite on June 26 that was re-aired on June 27, 2014 reaching over 15 million viewers. During the press conference, CPSC staff demonstrated the dangers associated with fireworks through mannequin simulations involving bottle rockets, sparklers, M- 80’s and M-1,000’s. Chairman Adler and guest speakers conducted interviews with national and local media immediately following the press event. CPSC staff produced a video news release highlighting key data and demonstrations from the press event. A news release highlighting fireworks injuries and use trends was distributed and posted on the CPSC’s website. The Fireworks Safety infographic depicting injury patterns was updated and distributed.
Halloween Hazards: Staff began its Halloween safety efforts by issuing a news release offering easy-to-remember safety tips to prevent fires and burn injuries in October 2013. Staff conducted media interviews with local and national media. A poster with parent-friendly safety tips was distributed to Neighborhood Safety Network members and posted on CPSC.gov. Twitter messages were sent to @USCPSC followers, and a Halloween video PSA was highlighted on the CPSC YouTube channel.
Thanksgiving Cooking Safety: Staff conducted a live cooking fire demonstration and press conference at CPSC’s National Product Testing and Evaluation Center to warn consumers about the dangers associated with Thanksgiving cooking. Participants included CPSC Chairman Inez Tenenbaum, Deputy U.S. Fire Administrator Glenn Gaines and National Fire Protection Association President Jim Shannon. CPSC’s media outreach received an estimated 70 million media impressions.
Holiday Shopping/Toy Safety: CPSC hosted a national toy safety satellite media tour in November 2013 with Chairman Inez Tenenbaum and Office of Communications staff. CPSC issued a national press release highlighting a global system of toy safety announcing toy recalls down and port seizures up. Interviews with more than 25 broadcast stations were conducted reaching more than eight million viewers. In addition, CPSC issued toy safety information on the CPSC.gov, posted and distributed the “Play It Safe” toy safety poster and issued safety messages through print, online and social media platforms. Toy safety messages were coordinated with Health Canada and Profeco and distributed for bilingual audiences. Hispanic media coverage
2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 165 Public Outreach Consumer Outreach
included Univision, Telemundo and CNN En Espanol with over 3.5 million audience reach. Acting Chairman Bob Adler gave the keynote speech at the annual Toy Industry Association Toy Fair safety seminar. Acting Chairman Adler also conducted an interview with Inside Edition on toy and storage chest dangers. Staff communicated with hundreds of children’s toy manufacturers at Toy Fair and distributed toy safety educational materials while exhibiting at the conference.
Home Heating (CO hazards): The CPSC issued an infographic in February 2014, at the height of home heating season with tips on preventing CO poisoning from portable generators. Tips included an annual professional inspection of all fuel-burning appliances, CO alarms and running generators outside only.
Home Heating (Fire Hazards): The CPSC issued an OnSafety blog in February 2014 with tips on safe use of space heaters in the home, including keeping space heaters at least three feet away from curtains, bedding and drapes, turning off space heaters when going to sleep, and the importance of having working smoke alarms throughout the home. CPSC issued a winter home heater press release, “As Winter Approaches, Check Your Home for These Recalled Heaters,” to remind consumers to check their homes for recalled heaters that pose a fire hazard.
Poison Prevention: The third week of March is designated as National Poison Prevention Week. To raise awareness about unintentional poison dangers, the CPSC issued a news release offering safety tips regarding single-load laundry packets, carbon monoxide hazards, and way to prevent children from accessing medications and chemicals. CPSC staff also coordinated with the Poison Prevention Week Council to post messages to social media, including daily themed Twitter messages, using a single hash tag, #PreventPoison.
Portable Gas Generators: CPSC staff issued a news release, “Winter Warning: Portable Generators Hold Top Spot in CPSC Report on Carbon Monoxide Deaths & Incident” on December 19, 2013 to alert consumers about the potential CO hazard with portable generators and the fact that African-Americans are disproportionately affected by generator-related CO poisonings. CPSC also sent out blogs and tweets surrounding winter storms about CO safety and the safe use of generators.
Tip-Overs: After years of carrying out outreach efforts that encouraged parents and caregivers to “Anchor It and Save a Child,” deaths and injuries from furniture and TV tip-overs continued to climb. To address this hazard, the Commission allocated $400,000 to the Office of Communications to fund a full scale media and education campaign. At the close of FY 2014, a contract was awarded to Widmeyer Communications to build a multi-media safety campaign.

2014 REPORT TO THE PRESIDENT AND CONGRESS 200 Intergovernmental Coordination
INTERGOVERNMENTAL COORDINATION
The Commission works with many agencies over the course of a year. This section describes the significant coordination the CPSC has had with other governmental organizations. Specifically, this section provides information on: (1) a major state-supported safety initiative for the Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act and Safety Standards for Full-Size Baby Cribs and Non- Full-Size Baby Cribs; (2) the Commission’s efforts coordinating with state and local programs; and (3) significant communication with other governmental agencies and offices, including any notification under section 218 of the CPSIA.9 In 2014, no state or local official filed a written notice to the Commission under section 218 of the CPSIA.
1) Major State-Supported Safety Initiatives
Virginia Graeme Baker Pool and Spa Safety Act (“VGBA”): The VGBA affects public pools and spas nationwide, and the Commission’s enforcement of the Act requires the cooperation of state and local agencies. In 2014, states worked cooperatively with the CPSC to conduct inspections of pool sites to verify compliance with the Act.
Safety Standard for Full Size Baby Cribs and Non Full Size Baby Cribs at 16 C.F.R. Parts 1219 and 1220: CPSC staff worked with state child care licensing bureaus to conduct inspections of child care facilities, family child care homes, and daycare centers to determine compliance with the final rule. During the on-site visits, states provided CPSC educational materials to child care providers. Inspection reports were submitted to the CPSC for the appropriate follow up and corrective action.
2) State and Local Programs
Section 29(a) of the Consumer Product Safety Act requires that the Commission establish a program to promote federal-state cooperation for the purpose of carrying out the Act. The goal of the program is to reduce consumer product related deaths and injuries by leveraging CPSC resources through cost-effective cooperation with state and local governments. In 2014, activities included the following:
• Assigning compliance and enforcement activities to the states. The table below provides the number of CPSC assignments to state officials made during the year; • Supporting states through technical assistance and participation in conferences; • Monitoring industry’s compliance with CPSC mandatory laws; • Engaging in outreach and dissemination of information through multiple venues, such as journal, print, electronic media, and presentations sharing product safety research; • Hosted the state and local workshop, training by field staff, and conference calls for state designees.
9 [Section 218 of the CPSIA amends the CPSA, Prohibited Acts, allowing] the attorney general of a state, or other authorized state officer, alleging a [specified] violation … of the Act, … on behalf of the residents of the state, … to obtain appropriate injunctive relief. [The Act requires] a state [to] provide written notice to the Commission [prior] to initiate[ing] civil action by filing a complaint, … at least 30 days before [unless] … immediate action is necessary. The Commission may intervene in such civil action.

4) International Training Activity
As part of a strategy for addressing the growing complexity and risk entailed within additional global sources of production, the CPSC’s Office of International Programs works to prevent hazardous and noncompliant consumer products from being exported to the United States through outreach and training abroad. The CPSC works with U.S. trading partners at the outset of the manufacturing process to increase their ability to produce products that comply with U.S. safety requirements. The agency also trains buyers and sourcing professionals who procure for U.S. importers. Outreach activities also include training foreign regulators on best practices to help them eliminate unsafe products from their jurisdictions, thus reducing the chances those products will find their way to the United States. The list below is a summary of international training activities completed in 2014.
2014 International Training / Briefings Activities Summary Number of trainings / briefings conducted for foreign groups / 67 audiences Number of trainings / briefings for industry abroad 35 Number of trainings / briefings for foreign government entities 32 Number of private sector representatives trained / briefed 1,377 Number of government officials trained / briefed 622 Number of people trained / briefed 1,999 Number of different foreign jurisdictions trained / briefed 30 Number of trainings / briefings conducted abroad 55 (20 different locations) Number of trainings / briefings held offsite in Washington, D.C. 8 Number of trainings / briefings held offsite in the United States 2
