The California Air Resources Board’s (ARB) 2013 Consumer and
Commercial Products Survey (2013 Survey) began on September 2,
2014, and the deadline for submission was March 2, 2015.
Recognizing the resources needed to complete the 2013 Survey,
small businesses with less than 25 total employees were allowed
an additional time extension to July 1, 2015, to complete
reporting of 2013 data beyond the 90 statutorily required days
and the additional 90 days ARB staff issued.

As a reminder, July 1, 2015, is the deadline for submission of
2013 data for those companies that were granted this additional
extension.  Please note that all 2013 data must be uploaded via
ARB’s survey web upload portal.  The survey upload portal
instructions and general information related to the 2013 Survey
are available here:

General information about the Consumer Products Program is
available here:  http://www.arb.ca.gov/consprod/consprod.htm.

ARB’s Consumer Products Program is a key part of overall efforts
to reduce the amount of smog-forming volatile organic compounds,
toxic air contaminants, and greenhouse gasses that are emitted
from use of chemically formulated consumer products in
California.  ARB’s Consumer Products Regulations have resulted in
reduced statewide emissions from consumer products by an
estimated 50 percent since 1990.  ARB’s 2013 Survey is an
important step in collecting information on consumer products
that are sold or supplied for use in California.  The data
collected from the 2013 Data Reporting are designed to support
the statewide consumer product inventory, speciation profiles
used in criteria pollutant modelling, and future rulemakings.
