Capitol News
A California Superior Court Judge recently ruled against the American Chemistry Council (ACC), which filed a suit to prevent the California Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) from listing Bisphenol-A (BPA) as a Proposition 65 reproductive toxicant. In the suit, ACC argued that there were flaws in both the science and procedures used by OEHHA to develop the initial BPA listing in 2013.

Regulatory Insights
The Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) recently proposed updated "Air Toxic Hot Spots" (AB 2588) health risk assessment guidelines, and plans to finalize them within the next month or two. Despite significant reductions in stationary source emissions over the last two decades, OEHHA’s new guidelines have changed the way air quality health risk is estimated and will result in much higher estimates of risk. Facility risk estimates will increase by 1.5 to 3 times or more – even if there has been no change in a facility’s emissions. As a result, OEHHA and the California Air Resources Board (CARB) are now engaged in updating the risk management and risk communication guidelines as well.
