Der California Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) has initiated a review process for p,pʹ-bisphenol chemicals under Proposition 65. (1) These substances, including bisphenols and their ethers and esters, have been selected for evaluation by the Developmental and Reproductive Toxicant Identification Committee (DARTIC) for potential listing as reproductive toxicants.
OEHHA is currently requesting scientific information to support the development of hazard identification materials. Submissions should include animal studies, human epidemiological data, or evidence on mechanisms of reproductive or developmental toxicity.
Details of the Review Process
OEHHA will compile and prepare hazard identification materials for DARTIC’s consideration. These materials will undergo public review and comment before the committee’s formal evaluation. The meeting date and agenda for DARTIC’s review will be published on the California Regulatory Notice Register and on OEHHA’s official website once confirmed.
Submissions may be made electronically through OEHHA’s website or mailed directly to their Sacramento office before the deadline.
Feedback-Frist
Alle scientific information relevant to the reproductive toxicity of p,pʹ-bisphenol chemicals must be submitted by December 1, 2025.
Warum es wichtig ist
This review could have regulatory implications for manufacturers of plastics, resins, and coatings, einschließlich Lebensmittelverpackungen producers. If listed under Proposition 65, products containing these chemicals may require reformulation, new labeling, or additional risk communication measures to ensure compliance.
Who This Affects
