Revocation of Obsolete Rules Regarding Infant Bouncer Seats and Stationary Activity Centers
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (Commission or CPSC) is withdrawing a direct final rule (notified as G/TBT/N/USA/2304) that would remove two obsolete rules concerning infant bouncer seats and stationary activity centers that was published in the Federal Register on 22 July 2026, because the Commission received a significant adverse comment. The direct final rule published on 22 July 2026 (91 FR 45992) is withdrawn effective 17 September 2026. 91 Federal Register (FR) 58817, 17 September 2026; Title 16 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 1500: This withdrawal and the direct final rule notified as G/TBT/N/USA/2304 are identified by Docket Number CPSC-2026-0298. The Docket Folder is available on Regulations.gov at and provides access to primary documents as well as comments received. Documents are also accessible from Regulations.gov by searching the Docket Number.
Direct final rule - The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (Commission or CPSC) is reviewing its regulations to reduce regulatory burdens and costs. Pursuant to this review, CPSC has identified two rules concerning infant bouncer seats and stationary activity centers that are now obsolete because those products are subject to newer, more comprehensive mandatory safety standards issued by the Commission. This direct final rule removes the obsolete provisions to eliminate unnecessary duplication and improves regulatory clarity for manufacturers, testing laboratories, regulators, and the public. This action does not eliminate or reduce any mandatory federal safety standard applicable to infant bouncer seats or stationary activity centers. Both product categories will remain subject to the Commission's mandatory safety standards.
