What can suppliers do with existing noncompliant products?
A9: The CPSC may prohibit a person from exporting noncompliant products to another country unless the importing country has notified the Commission that it will accept those products. With respect to disposal or destruction of such products, because jurisdictions have differing requirements, the CPSC generally advises that manufacturers and retailers check with their local governments regarding the disposal of hazardous substances. When destruction has been requested through a corrective action, the CPSC requests that they be allowed to witness the destruction or that they receive an affi davit and photographs of the destroyed items.
