The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act, 1986 (California Proposition 65) dictates that companies cannot knowingly and intentionally expose any individual to a chemical known to the state of California to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity without first giving clear and reasonable warning. With nearly 1,000 Proposition 65 legal actions per year with average settlements in excess of $100K USD, companies are increasingly vulnerable to lawsuits for Proposition 65 indiscretions.

“No person in the course of doing business shall knowingly and intentionally expose any individual to a chemical known to the state to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity without first giving clear and reasonable warning to such individual.”
