Sec. 1021.1  Purpose.


    This part contains Consumer Product Safety Commission procedures for 
review of environmental effects of Commission actions and for 
preparation of environmental impact statements (EIS) and related 
documents. These procedures supersede any Commission procedures 
previously applicable. The procedures provide for identification of 
effects of a proposed action and its alternatives on the environment; 
for assessment of the significance of these effects; for consideration 
of effects at the appropriate points in the Commission's decision-making 
process; and for preparation of environmental impact statements for 
major actions significantly affecting the environment. These procedures 
are intended to implement the Council on Environmental Quality's final 
regulations of November 29, 1978 (43 FR 55978; 40 CFR part 1500, et 
seq.) concerning agency compliance with the National Environmental 
Policy Act, as amended (NEPA) (15 U.S.C. 4321-4347 as amended by Pub. L. 
94-83, August 8, 1975).
