The Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA)
of the California Environmental Protection Agency is adding the
chemical methyleugenol to the list of chemicals known to the State
to cause cancer for purposes of the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic
Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65). The chemical is listed
effective November 16, 2001.
Methyleugenol (CAS No. 93-15-2) is listed as a chemical known
to the State to cause cancer. The listing of methyleugenol is
based on a formal identification by an authoritative body that
the chemical causes cancer pursuant to an administrative listing
mechanism provided under Proposition 65. Regulations governing
the listing of chemicals under the "authoritative bodies"
mechanism are published in Title 22, California Code of Regulations,
Section 12306 (22 CCR 12306).
The reader is directed to the Notice of Intent to List Chemicals
published in the March 30, 2001, issue of the California Regulatory
Notice Register (Register 00, No. 13-Z) for the supporting documentation
for the chemical methyleugenol, which OEHHA relied upon in making
its determination that the criteria for administrative listing
had been satisfied.
A complete, updated chemical list is available from the download
area below.
