TCG Clients Serve Nine New 60-Day Notices
Anthony Held, Russell Brimer, and Whitney Leeman--clients of The Chanler Group--served nine new 60-Day Notices of Proposition 65 Violation today. The notices were served to companies offering products such as hand tools, stools, chairs and ottomans 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 and the flame retardants TDCPP and TCEP. DEHP is known to cause birth defects and reproductive harm while TDCPP and TCEP are known to cause cancer. Some of the noticed companies include Airgas, Inc., Larsen Supply Co., Pepsico, Inc. and Target Corporation.
