Pursuant to the requirements of Government Code Section 11346.8(c), and Section 44 of Title 1 of the California Code of Regulations, the Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) is providing notice of changes made to proposed regulations, Title 22, California Code of Regulations, Sections 12705 and 12805, which were the subject of a regulatory hearing on July 23, 2001. These changes are in response to comments received regarding the proposed regulations. OEHHA has received oral and written comments on eight chemicals: arsenic; benzene, cadmium, di(2-ethylhexyl)phthalate (DEHP); lead; lead acetate; lead phosphate and lead subacetate.
