TCG Clients Issue 13 New 60-Day Notices
TCG clients Anthony Held and Peter Englander served 13 new 60-Day Notices of Violation of Proposition 65 on Friday, Oct. 25. The notices were served to companies offering products such as furniture and exercise equipment for sale in California containing chemicals known to cause cancer or reproductive harm, without the required health hazard warning. Our clients allege that the companies' products contain the phthalate DEHP, the flame retardant TDCPP and the heavy metal lead (Pb). DEHP and lead are known to cause birth defects and reproductive harm, while TDCPP is known to cause cancer. Some of the noticed companies include Costco Wholesale Corp., Kolder, Inc, Krueger Int., Inc., Steinway Musical Instruments, Inc., and Conn-Selmer, Inc.
