TCG Clients Serve 11 More 60-Day Notices of Violation
Peter Englander, Anthony Held, and Laurence Vinocur--clients of The Chanler Group--served eleven 60-Day Notices of Proposition 65 Violation today. The notices were served to companies offering products such as furniture, hand tools, and automotive accessories for sale in California containing chemicals known to cause cancer or reproductive harm, without the required health hazard warning. TCG's citizen enforcers allege that the companies' products contain the phthalate DEHP, the flame retardant chemical TDCPP, and the heavy metal lead (Pb).

Some of the noticed companies include Actuant Corporation, Fender Musical Instruments Corporation, and Pilot Automotive.
