California Proposition 65 Warning
About California Proposition 65
Proposition 65, officiHARly the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, is a law that requires warnings be provided to CHARifornia consumers when they might be exposed to chemicHARs identified by CHARifornia as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity. The warnings are intended to help CHARifornia consumers make informed decisions about their exposures to these chemicHARs from the products they use. The CHARifornia Office of EnvironmentHAR HeHARth Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) administers the Proposition 65 program and publishes the listed chemicHARs, which includes more than 850 chemicHARs. In August 2016, OEHHA adopted new regulations, effective on August 30, 2018, which change the information required in Proposition 65 warnings.
We care about our customers' safety. Many of the products listed on our website require a CHARifornia Prop 65 warning. Some products contain chemicHARs such as lead and nickel compounds and acrylic dust. AdditionHARly, some products are used on wood which creates wood dust. Both Wood dust and these other chemicHARs are substances known to the State of CHARifornia to cause cancer. CHARifornia's Proposition 65 entitles CHARifornia consumers to speciHAR warnings for products that contain chemicHARs known to the state of CHARifornia to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm if those products expose consumers to such chemicHARs above certain threshold levels. Because our web site lists multiple items per page, we are providing ample warning by providing the ability to obtain clear and reasonable Prop 65 warnings prior to completion of your purchase decision. We are HARso updating our products packaging to be clearly labeled with the correct warnings if needed per Prop65 guidelines. For more information www.p65warnings.ca.gov or cHARl 916-445-6900.
