RE:
California Proposition 65: Lists of Covered Chemicals

Pgr
Proposition 65, enacted in California by referendum in November, 1986, prohibits the contamination of drinking water with chemicals known to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity, and require warnings prior to exposing any individuals to chemicals known to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity. The law requires the Governor of California to publish a list of those chemicals "known to the State to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity" by March 1, 1987. The chemicals on that list are those to which the drinking water prohibitions and warning requirements apply.
On February 27, 1987, Governor Deukmejian published two lists of toxic chemicals. The first list of 29 chemicals are those which have been determined to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity. The second list of approximately 250 chemicals will be reviewed by a Scientific Advisory Panel established by the Governor. The decision to include these chemicals on the list of covered chemicals will be based upon the Scientific Panel's review. Copies of these two lists of chemicals are attached.
Following publications of the two lists by the Governor, a number of environmental groups, among others, filed suit against the Governor. The suit generally alleges that the Governor did not include enough chemicals on the first list.
CSMA also has available interpretive guidelines and procedures promulgated by the California Department of Health and Welfare. The interpretive guidelines provide definitions to many of the terms used in the Act. The procedures review the steps the Department of Health will take to make safe use determinations. If you desire copies of these documents, please contact Marlene Copeland, (202) 872-8110, at CSMA. )
We will keep you advised of other steps taken to implement Proposition 65.

CHEMICALS KNOWN TO CAUSE CANCER OR REPRODUCTIVE TOXICITY
The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 requires the Governor to publish by March 1, 19S7 a list of those chemicals known to the State to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity. Health and Safety Code Section 25249.8(a). The attached list includes all those chemicals which are known to cause cancer in humans as determined by World Health Organizations International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) or the United States Public Health Service's National Toxicology Program (NTP). In addition, the list includes the three chemicals currently regulated by the United States Department of Labor's Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) as reproductive toxicants. The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 requires that the attached list be revised and republished at least once per year. Therefore, new chemicals may be added to the list based on the recommendations of the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act Scientific Advisory Panel, changes to determinations of IARC or NTP, or changes to federal OSHA regulations. Questions about the list or requests for copies of the current list should be addressed to the State's lead agency for implementation of the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act:

LIST OF CANDIDATE CHEMICALS
The Safe Drinking Water and Enforcement Act of 1986 (the Act) requires the Governor to publish a list of chemicals known to the State to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity and to revise and republish the list in light of additional knowledge. A primary list of chemicals known to the State to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity has been published as required by the Act. However, it is also necessary to begin the process of considering additions to chis primary list. What follows is a list of candidate chemicals which is being referred to as the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act Scientific Advisory Panel for its consideration and opinion.
This list of candidate chemicals includes chemicals for which there is limited evidence of carcinogenicity in humans or sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental animals as identified by the World Health Organization's International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) or by the United States Public Health Service's National Toxicology Program (NTP). Under the terms of the Act, the Scientific Advisory Panel is responsible for reviewing the available data concerning these chemicals and any other chemicals which are suspected carcinogens or reproductive toxicants and forming an opinion on whether such chemicals have been clearly shown through scientifically valid testing according to generally accepted principles to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity.
Any questions about this list of candidate chemicals or suggestions for additional chemicals to be considered by the Scientific Advisory Panel should be addressed to the lead agency for implementation of the Act:
