AB 2463 California Assembly · 2011-2012 Regular Session

Toxic chemicals: exposure.

Summary
The existing Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65) prohibits any person, in the course of doing business, from knowingly and intentionally exposing any individual to a chemical known to the state to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity without giving a specified warning, or from discharging or releasing such a chemical into any source of drinking water, except as specified. The act provides that it does not alter or diminish any legal obligation otherwise required in common law or by statute or regulation, or create or enlarge any defense in any action to enforce a legal obligation. This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to this provision.
