Abstract

This document amends the Rules and Regulations under the Fur Products Labeling Act (Fur Rules) by adding the International System of Units (SI metric system) equivalents beside the inch/pound unit measurements in Secs. 301.19 and 301.27. These metrication amendments are required by Executive Order 12770 of July 25, 1991, and the Metric Conversion Act, as amended by the Omnibus Trade and Competitiveness Act. Section 301.43 is amended to replace the phrase ``capacity or tendency to mislead or deceive'' with language conforming with that set forth in recent Commission cases. Section 301.12(e)(2) is amended to eliminate obsolete country names. Section 301.19(k) is amended to change the reference to the Bureau of Textiles and Furs, which no longer exists, to the Bureau of Consumer Protection. Finally, Sec. 301.1(a)(2) is republished to correct a typographical error in the CFR.
