The California Code of Regulations defines “consumer product” in § 25600.1. Definitions. as “any article, or component part thereof, including food, that is produced, distributed, or sold for the personal use, consumption or enjoyment of a consumer.” This Document addresses any potential exposures which may occur during the initial installation of a consumer product, whether the installation is by a professional or a consumer. This Document specifies some acceptable laboratory testing methods for various products/materials and exposure pathways. In addition, this document specifies methods which may be used to derive safe harbor levels, (No Significant Risk Levels (NSRLs) for cancer-causing chemicals and Maximum Allowable Dose Levels (MADLs) for chemicals causing reproductive toxicity), for chemicals specified on the Proposition 65 list for which no safe harbor levels have been derived. The Document is intended to be used by risk assessors and only applies to businesses with 10 or more employees.
