Proposition 65 Compliance
The California Prop 65 regulation, part of the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, aims to protect drinking water and alert consumers about products containing chemicals that may cause cancer or birth defects. Managed by the OEHHA under the California Environmental Protection Agency, it requires businesses to inform customers about the presence of such chemicals in their products, including foods and supplements. Compliance is essential, as non-compliance can result in legal action and significant financial penalties, signaled by a “60-Day Notice” or “Notice of Violation.”
Our team specializes in Prop 65 compliance, offering consulting and regulatory training to ensure clients have a strategic compliance plan. Recognizing the Prop 65 list’s dynamic nature, we provide a solution for keeping data current, crucial for compliance.
