    The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is issuing a correction to a rule about safety standards for non-full-size baby cribs, which was originally published on January 31, 2025. This correction involves updating references to the voluntary standard ASTM F406-24, which is used in setting these rules, by excluding specific sections that do not exist. The correction will take effect on April 5, 2025, unless significant objections are received by February 28, 2025. This correction ensures the rule accurately aligns with the latest version of the voluntary standard.

    Simple Explanation

    The U.S. safety team found a mistake in their rules for making certain baby cribs safe, so they're fixing it to match the newest safety guidelines. They're asking people to let them know by the end of February if they have any big problems with this change.

    The Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) is proposing to update more than 20 incorporated consensus standards in the Federal pipeline safety regulations. This proposed rulemaking involves incorporating newer versions of technical standards, clarifying regulatory language, and making minor corrections to improve clarity without imposing new initiatives on pipeline operators. The changes will allow operators to use the latest technologies and practices in pipeline safety, while also aligning with federal policies to incorporate voluntary consensus standards. Public comments on the proposal are invited until March 16, 2021.

    Simple Explanation

    The government is suggesting some rule updates to help keep pipelines safe by using the latest and best tools and instructions, but they won't make the people running the pipelines change how they do their work. They're asking people to share their thoughts on these ideas by March 16, 2021.
