Description
CARB published a draft package under its Potential Targeted Administrative Modifications (TEAMs) rulemaking process proposing administrative/clarifying edits to the Composite Wood Products Formaldehyde ATCM (17 CCR §§93120–93120.12). The draft materials describe proposed changes including: aligning equivalence testing ranges with U.S. EPA ranges (draft edits referenced to §93120.9), clarifying statement-of-compliance information is in English, streamlining how/where statements of compliance are provided (including removing certain documentation/labeling options as described in the draft cover/attachments), and adding explicit labeling language for panels moved through California for testing only (e.g., “For CARB/TSCA Title VI testing only, not for sale in California,” shown in draft edits to §§93120.3, 93120.5, 93120.6). Compliance teams should track this proposal because, if adopted, it could change documentation/labeling/testing expectations for regulated panels and finished goods.
