Product safety — more California Proposition 65 notices issued/TGA Prop 65 running list released

Eleven new "60-day" notices were issued in March, alleging that brands and retailers sold bags (Notice 1; Notice 2; Notice 3; Notice 4; Notice 5; Notice 6), accessories (Notice 1) and footwear (Notice 1; Notice 2; Notice 3; Notice 4) in California that contained lead and phthalates in violation of Prop 65. The notices serve as intent to bring a lawsuit against the recipients alleging that the products sold in California contain certain chemicals in violation of Proposition 65. All new "60 day notices" are shown in our updated Prop 65 "60 Day Notice" running list.
