Trade Commission, 11000 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 13209, Los Angeles, CA
90024, (310) 235-7890.
SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: As part of the on-going regulatory review of
its rules and guides, the Commission on May 6, 1994 published requests
for public comments concerning three related sets of regulations: (1)
Rules and Regulations under the Wool Products Labeling Act, (2) Rules
and Regulations under the Fur Products Labeling Act, and (3) Rules and
Regulations under the Textile Fiber Products Identification Act. The
comments were to be accepted until June 6, 1994. The Commission
subsequently extended the comment period until September 6, 1994.
The Commission has received a letter seeking extension of these
comment periods from the American Textile Manufacturers Institute, a
trade association representing large numbers of interested members
subject to the marking requirements of the Textile, Wool, and Fur Acts.
In addition to this formal request for extension, Commission staff has
been contacted by other trade associations and interested entities who
intend to comment or would like to comment and have stated that,
because of the widespread coverage and complexity of these regulations,
the comment periods should be extended.
To allow all interested persons the opportunity to supply
information to the Commission, the Commission hereby extends the period
within which to comment on its Rules and Regulations under the Textile
Fiber Products Identification Act until October 15, 1994.
Authority: 15 U.S.C. 70 et seq.
