I don't recall there being a separate grace period, and it was never abundantly clear if hardware(that didn't already contain e-liquid) was part of the proposed rule, even though I believe it is.

I think the grace period is for all newly deemed tobacco products, for them to submit their PMTA, or if any plan to, an SE application.

Yeah... I think the Entire amount of Information regarding e-liquids was Sketchy at best.

Correct me if I'm Wrong. But this 2 Year proposed Grace period was for Hardware. And did not Include mention of e-Liquids. Correct?

BTW - Here is a Chart of the 9 Step Rule Process.

BTW2 - We are in Step #8.
Great link zoiDman! Hadn't seen that before, thank you.

Step 8

OMB Review of Final Rule, Interim Final Rule, or Direct Final Rule

OMB Review Under Executive Order 12866 OMB reviews only those rulemaking actions determined to be “significant.” Independent agencies are exempt from OMB review.

Step 9

Publication of Final Rule, Interim Final Rule, or Direct Final Rule

Congressional Review Act (5 U.S.C. 801-808) An agency must submit most final rules, interim final rules, and direct final rules, along with supporting information, to both houses of Congress and the General Accounting Office before they can take effect. Major rules are subject to a delayed effective date (with certain exceptions). Action by Congress and the President could have an impact on the rule.

Administrative Procedure Act Provisions
Under the Administrative Procedure Act provisions that are included as part of the Freedom of Information Act at 5 U.S.C. 552, agencies are required to publish final rules, interim final rules, and direct final rules in the Federal Register.

Federal Register Act (44 U.S.C. 1501-1511)
The Federal Register Act at 44 U.S.C. 1510 (implemented at 1 CFR 8.1) requires rules that have general applicability and legal effect to be published in the Code of Federal Regulations.

PMTA? SE application (substantial equivalent)? I used to know what those meant before the last California square dance that culminated in a lobotomy after an all-day viewing of our government at work. :lol:

Yeah, I'm trying to get my head back into the game. Pre Market Tobacco Application(New Product), Substantial Equivalence Application(slight change to existing product).

Thank you. The Pre Market Tobacco Application acronym always fowls me up. Plus I think a lot of people that might be stopping by here may not even go to the other forums, if for no other reason than they are just overwhelming these days.
