The new CSPA Reporting Rule contains 85 CHCCs and will become effective on October 30, 2017.  Once the amendment is published officially, manufacturers of children's products are obligated to notify the DOE if their products contain any of the CHCCs in an amount above a de minimis level by 31 January 2019.
