Act (16 CFR 500) OR NIST Uniform Laws and Regulations Handbook Manufacturer, Packer, or Distributor s Name & Address (City, State & Zip) Product identification Net quantity of contents shall be expressed in terms of weight or mass, measure, numerical count, or combination so as to give accurate information to facilitate consumer comparison (U.S. and metric units). **Country of Origin Marking 19 CFR Shall indicate country of origin legibly, permanently, and in comparable size and close proximity to any mention of country other than country in which the article was manufactured or produced. Must be visible at point of purchase. Use labeling SCOPE: This protocol is applicable for testing of picture frame. SUPPLEMENTAL PROTOCOLS * CA Prop 65 Applicable Section from Protocol CPSD-AN- PTCL US / Visual 1 Use / care instructions that are clear and understandable shall be provided in language appropriate to destination countries.

2 Claim verification - level 2 CPSD-GB All Examine the retail packaging (or submitted artwork). Record each objective (factual) claim which can be substantiated by the testing within the protocols and rate accordingly. Record testing that extend beyond existing net quantity / dimensional testing on this protocol. Record all other objective (factual) and subjective (opinion) claims as NT and rate as DATA. Record information evaluated between the graphic imagery and the product. Record disclaimers on datasheet. Page 2 of 10

3 If wood of any type is present in the sample, submitter shall provide a completed and signed Sample Declaration Form. Sections A, B, and E of the Sample Declaration Form must always be completed. If regulated composite wood is not present in the sample, result is N/A. * EPA TSCA Title VI Composite Wood Sample Declaration Form and Mill Certificate 40 CFR If regulated composite wood is present in the sample: - Section D of the Sample Declaration Form must also be completed - Submitter shall provide a copy of the certificate issued by the Third Party Certifier (TPC) for the mill(s) from which the raw panels were purchased - All information on the certificate shall be consistent with the Sample Declaration Form Notes: Include a copy of the Sample Declaration Form in the report Regulated composite wood includes: - Hardwood plywood (HWPW) - Medium-density fiberboard (MDF) - Thin medium-density fiberboard (Thin MDF) - Particleboard (PB) Mill certificate that denotes compliance with CARB s ATCM for formaldehyde will be accepted in lieu of a certificate denoting compliance with TSCA Title VI until March 22, Rating Schedule: - On or before May 31, 2018: Compliant submission shall be rated as pass Non-compliant submission shall be rated as data - On or after June 1, 2018: Compliant submission shall be rated as pass Non-compliant submission shall be rated as fail Page 3 of 10

4 Finished goods containing regulated composite wood shall comply with the labeling requirements found in 40 CFR (c) unless the finished good qualifies for the de minimis exception found in 40 CFR (e). A finished good does not require labeling per 40 CFR (c) if the finished good does qualify for the de minimis exception in 40 CFR (e). If the finished good does qualify for the de minimis exception, result is N/A. * EPA TSCA Title VI Composite Wood Finished Good Labeling 40 CFR (c) / 40 CFR (e) - A finished good does require labeling per 40 CFR (c) if the finished good does not qualify for the de minimis exeption in 40 CFR (e). - At a minimum, the label must be on the product OR the packaging - The label may be applied as a stamp, tag, or sticker - The label shall include, at a minimum, in legible English text: 1. Fabricator s name 2. Date the finished good was produced (in month/year format) 3. A statement of compliance to denote that the finished good complies with TSCA Title VI Example: XXX Company MM/YYYY EPA TSCA Title VI compliant for formaldehyde Page 4 of 10

5 [Continue from above] * EPA TSCA Title VI Composite Wood Finished Good Labeling 40 CFR (c) / 40 CFR (e) - Notes: A de minimis amount of regulated composite wood is defined as regulated composite wood content not exceeding 144 square inches, based on the surface area of the largest face of the finished good. The de minimis exception is not available to finished goods or component parts that are designed to be used in combination or in multiples to create larger surfaces, finished goods, or component parts. When a statement of compliance is necessary, a statement of compliance that denotes the finished good complies with CARB s ATCM for formaldehyde will be accepted in lieu of a TSCA Title VI compliance statement until March 22, Rating Schedule: - On or before May 31, 2018: Compliant submission shall be rated as pass Non-compliant submission shall be rated as data - On or after June 1, 2018: Compliant submission shall be rated as pass Non-compliant submission shall be rated as fail Page 5 of 10

6 If wood of any type is present in the sample, submitter shall provide a completed and signed Sample Declaration Form. Sections A, C, and E of the Sample Declaration Form must always be completed. If regulated composite wood is not present in the sample, result is N/A. * CARB ATCM for Formaldehyde Composite Wood Sample Declaration Form and Mill Certificate Title 17, California Code of Regulations Section If regulated composite wood is present in the sample: - Section D of the Sample Declaration Form must also be completed - Submitter shall provide a copy of the certificate issued by the Third Party Certifier (TPC) for the mill(s) from which the raw panels were purchased - All information on the certificate shall be consistent with the Sample Declaration Form Notes: Include a copy of the Sample Declaration Form in the report Regulated composite wood includes: - Hardwood plywood (HWPW) - Medium-density fiberboard (MDF) - Thin medium-density fiberboard (Thin MDF) - Particleboard (PB) Page 6 of 10
