This newest sell-through extension will be in effect through December 31, 2011. Regulatory Advisory 10-01, which describes this extension, is posted to our composite wood products website at: http://www.arb.ca.gov/toxics/compwood/outreach/10_01_advisory.pdf The sell-through extension affects businesses which use composite wood product panels (i.e., fabricators) to make finished goods, such as furniture, cabinets, picture frames, etc., as well as businesses that distribute or sell these goods at the retail level. The purpose of this extension is to address excess inventories within California of finished goods made with pre-Phase 1 composite wood product panels. These excess inventories are a result of the economic recession, which has led to slow sales across many business sectors. If you have questions about this advisory, please contact: Mr. Lynn Baker at (916) 324-6997, email lbaker@arb.ca.gov or Ms. Angela Csondes at (916) 445-4448, email acsondes@arb.ca.gov.

The Act amends the federal Toxic Substance Control Act and requires the United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) to develop a new federal regulation by January 1, 2013, to implement provisions of the Act. To provide clarity for the regulated community, we affirm that the current California Airborne Toxic Control Measure (ATCM) to Reduce Formaldehyde from Composite Wood Products remains fully in effect. The ACT mandates the same formaldehyde emission standards, as well as all other major regulatory elements, contained in the California ATCM. However, the ACT also includes some notable differences relative to the California ATCM regarding sell through provisions and de minimus use exemptions. The detail of these differences will be determined by the U.S. EPA as a result of their ongoing public rulemaking process. The text of the new law may be viewed at: http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=s111-1660. For questions related to the impact of the Act in California, please call Mr. Lynn Baker at (916) 324-6997. ====================================================================== You are subscribed to the compwood mailing list.
