How does the new law apply to small domestic manufacturers of handmade items? Have there been any exceptions made for small producers?
A15: There are no exceptions for small producers. The CPSC does have a guide for small businesses, resellers, crafters, and charities which states that even someone working from home, making clothes and toys for children, must conform to the CPSIA. This guide is available at the following link on the CPSC website: http://www.cpsc.gov/about/cpsia/smbus/cpsiasbguide.
