Committee on Environmental Safety and Toxic Materials
Author
Existing law prohibits a person from making a claim in connection with the sale or distribution of a water treatment device, as defined, that the device affects the health or safety of drinking water, unless the device has been certified by the State Department of Public Health or another entity, as specified. Existing law requires the department to adopt regulations setting forth the criteria and procedures for certification of water treatment devices that are claimed to affect the health or safety of drinking water. This bill would revise the criteria and procedure for certification of water treatment devices for which a health or safety claim, as defined, is made and would require each manufacturer that offers for sale in California one of those water treatment devices to submit specified information, including the manufacturer's contact information, product identification information, the specific contaminant claimed to be removed or reduced by the device, and a product information worksheet, as described, to the department for purposes of inclusion on the department's Internet Web site. The bill would require the department to publish that information on its Internet Web site by April 1, if it received the information between September 2 and March 1, and by October 1, if it received the information between March 2 and September 1. The bill would also require each manufacturer to pay a reasonable regulatory fee to pay for the cost of publishing information on the department's Internet Web site and for conducting enforcement actions. The bill would require, after July 1, 2015, the exterior packaging of certain water treatment devices to clearly identify the contaminant that the device has been certified to remove or reduce, as specified. The bill would also require the manufacturer of certain water treatment devices, after July 1, 2015, to include a specified decal with each water treatment device offered for sale in California. This bill would make related and conforming changes.
