Existing law prohibits a person from distributing, selling, or offering for sale in the state any food packaging that contains regulated perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances or PFAS, as defined.
This bill would prohibit a person from distributing, selling, or offering for sale in the state any food packaging that contains antimony trioxide or specified ortho-phthalates or bisphenols. The bill would authorize the Attorney General, a city attorney, county counsel, or district attorney to enforce this prohibition and would subject a person to a civil penalty not to exceed $5,000 for the first violation of the prohibition and not to exceed $10,000 for each subsequent violation.
