The Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA)
of the California Environmental Protection Agency is adding three
chemicals 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 chemicals are listed effective
June 2, 2000 pursuant to an administrative listing mechanism provided
under Proposition 65, based upon a formal identification by an
authoritative body that the chemical causes cancer. 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
17, 2000 issue of the California Regulatory Notice Register
(Register 00, No. 11-Z) for the supporting documentation which
OEHHA relied upon in making its determination that the criteria
for administrative listing had been satisfied. A complete, updated
chemical list is published elsewhere in this issue of the California
Regulatory Notice Register.
The chemicals being listed under Proposition 65 as known to cause
cancer are shown below:
