Dear Customer,

 

The voters of California enacted by referendum the “Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986,” commonly known as Proposition 65. This law states that businesses may not “expose any individual to a chemical known to the state to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity without first giving clear and reasonable warning.”
