I guess I should rephrase the question by asking if manufacturers can now label products not covered by the FPLA with metric only labeling and legally sell these in all USA states and territories. Is the above a true statement? - Original Message - From: "eugene a mechtly"

Gene, I suspect that the phrase "from an earlier year" might mean prior to 2000 when the metric-only option in the UPLR went into effect. NY perhaps still does not permit metric-only labeling of goods under its aegis. Jim On 2015-12-17 14:07, mechtly, eugene a wrote: Ezra, In NIST
