The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act
of 1986 (Proposition 65 or the Act) requires the Governor to publish,
and update at least annually, a list of chemicals known to the State
to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity. The Office of Environmental
Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) is the lead agency for the implementation
of Proposition 65.
On October 30 1998,
OEHHA published a notice in the California Regulatory Notice Register
(Register 98, No. 44-Z) soliciting information which may be relevant
to the evaluation of certain chemicals under consideration for possible
administrative listing within the context of the Proposition 65
administrative listing regulatory criteria in Title 22 of the California
Code of Regulations (22 CCR) Section 12306.
A public forum was held on December 18, 1998 in Sacramento, California
to provide an opportunity for interested parties to present oral
comments and to discuss the scientific data and other information
relevant to a determination as to whether these chemicals meet the
criteria for listing set forth in 22 CCR Section 12306. To allow
for the submittal of complete and relevant information, OEHHA hereby
extends the public comment period to 5 p.m., Wednesday, January
6, 1998.
Written comments, along with supporting information, may be submitted
in triplicate to:
Cynthia Oshita
Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment
1001 I Street,
Sacramento, CA 95814
FAX: (916) 327-1097
Telephone: (916) 445-6900
In order to be considered, comments must be received at OEHHA by
5 p.m., January 6, 1998.
Following the review of all comments received, OEHHA will announce
its intention to proceed with the listing of those candidate chemicals
that meet the regulatory criteria for administrative listing in
a Notice of Intent to List Chemicals.
