Prohibits application of judicial review provisions to any standard issued pursuant to such proceedings.</p> <p>Requires any failure to meet the interim standard to be treated as a violation of a consumer product safety standard promulgated under the Consumer Product Safety Act (CPSA). Requires any final standard to be considered a CPSA consumer product safety standard.</p>]]></text>
