5、 U.S.C. 2057, 2058. (See parts 1145.1 and 1145.2 for the Commissions finding under section 30(d) of the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA) that it is in the public interest to regulate lead-containing paint and certain consumer products bearing such paint under the CPSA.) The following consumer prod
6、ucts are also declared to be banned hazardous products:(1) Toys and other articles intended for use by children that bear “lead-containing paint”.(2) Furniture articles for consumer use that bear “lead-containing paint”.(b) This ban applies to the products in the categories described in paragraph (a
7、) of this section that are manufactured after February 27, 1978, and which are “consumer products” as that term is defined in section 3(a)(1) of the Consumer Product Safety Act. Accordingly, those of the products described above that are customarily produced or distributed for sale to or for use, co
