Background and Effect of the Proposed Regulatory
Action :
Section 41712 of the California Health and Safety
Code requires CARB to adopt regulations to achieve
the maximum feasible reduction in VOC emissions
from consumer products (including aerosol coatings).As part of the regulatory process, CARB must deter-mine that adequate data exist for it to adopt the regula-
tions. CARB must also determine that the regulations
are technologically and commercially feasible, andnecessary to carry out the Board’s responsibilities under
Division 26 of the Health and Safety Code. In addition,
Health and Safety Code section 41712(c) provides that
no regulation shall be adopted which requires the elimi-nation of a product form. The Health and Safety Code
further stipulates in section 41712(e) that public health
agencies be consulted, and their recommendations beconsidered, prior to adopting regulations for health ben-
efit products. Section 41712 is primarily directed at at-
taining State and federal air quality standards.
Pursuant to Health and Safety Code section 41712,
CARB has adopted the Regulation for Reducing
V olatile Organic Compound Emissions from Antiper-
spirants and Deodorants (the “Antiperspirants and De-odorants Regulation,” title 17, CCR, sections94500−94506.5); the Regulation for Reducing Emis-
sions from Consumer Products (the “Consumer Prod-
ucts Regulation,” title 17, CCR, sections94507−94517); the Regulation for  Reducing the Ozone
Formed from Aerosol Coating Product Emissions (theCALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2018, VOLUME NO. 14-Z
 563“Aerosol Coatin g Products Regulation,” title 17, CCR,
sections 94520−94528); the Ta bles of Maximum Incre-
mental Reactivity (MIR) Values (“Tables of MIR Val-ues,” ti tle 17, CCR sections 94700−94701); and the in-
corporated by reference Method 310, “Determination
of V olatile Organic Compounds (VOC) in ConsumerProducts and Reacti ve Organic Compounds in Aerosol
Coating Products” (“Method 310”), has been adopted
to enforce the above regulations.
The Consumer Products Regulation sets forth VOC
limits and other requirements for numerous categories
of consumer products, including the Multi−Purpose Lu-
bricant (MPL) products category. For certain cate-
gories, the regulation also prohibits use of specific toxic
compounds and compounds with high global warming
potential (GWP) values. The regulation was originally
approved for adoption on October 11, 1990, and has
been amended numerous times. The most recentamendments were approved for adoption on September
26, 2013.
Method 310 was adopted on September 25, 1997, and
has been amended numerous times, most recently on
August 1, 2014. Method 310 is used to determine com-
pliance with various regulatory requirements, and is in-
corporated by reference in title 17, CCR sections 94506
(Antiperspirants and Deodorants), 94515 (Consumer
Products), and 94526 (Aerosol Coating Products).
Staff Pr oposal
CARB staff has proposed amendments to the Con-
sumer Products Regulation sections 94509, 94513, and
94515 to include an alternate compliance option to pro-
vide flexibility for manufacturers in meeting the re-quirements of the 10 percent by weight VOC limit for
MPL products. The alternate compliance option would
allow manufacturers to comply by meeting a 25 percent
by weight VOC limit and a reactivity limit of 0.45grams of ozone per gram of product. Staff is also
proposing to extend the ef fective date of the existing 10
percent by weight VOC limit from December 31, 2018,to July 1, 2019, to provide adequate time for manufac-
turers of MPL products to evaluate their products and
decide whether to comply via the alternate compliance
option. Additionally, staff is proposing to prohibit the
use of compounds with high global warming potentials
(GWP) in MPL products.
The sections proposed for amendment are codified in
title 17, California Code of Regulations  (CCR), sec-
tions 94509, 94513, and 94515.
Amendments to the analytical method, Method 310,
are also proposed. The proposed amendments to
Method 310 are intended to clarify and update dates of
test procedures. Specifically, staff is updating reference
method citations and dates, correcting grammar forconsistency, and including several additional reference
methods.
CARB may also consider other changes to the sec-
tions affected, as li sted earlier in this notice, during the
course of this rulemaking process.
Objectives and Benefits of the Proposed Regulatory
Action :
CARB staff is proposing amendments to the con-
sumer products regulation to achieve three objectives:The first is to maintain the ozone air quality benefits andthe benefits claimed in the State Implementation Plan(SIP) that the 10 percent VOC limit would achieve. The
10 percent limit was expected to result in 1.27 ton perday reductions in VOC emissions, which were claimedas part of the SIP submitted to United States Environ-mental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) in 2010. The pro-
posed amendments ensure that the emissions fromproducts using the alternate compliance option haveequal or less ozone forming potential than the 10 per-cent by weight compliant products.
The second objective is to provide compliance flexi-
bility to manufacturers that would enable them to con-tinue to offer effective products to consumers butachieve similar ozone air quality benefits to those that
comply with the mass−based 10 percent by weight
VOC limit.
The third objective is to achieve these objectives
without significantly impacting compliance costs or in-
creasing the cost of MPL products on the market.
The proposed amendments achieve these goals by
setting a product weighted maximum incremental reac-
tivity (PWMIR) limit of 0.45 grams of ozone per gram
of product, and requiring that the products not exceedthe current 25 percent by weight VOC limit. It providesthe needed flexibility for manufacturers of MPL prod-ucts and it retains the ozone air quality benefits of the 10
percent by weight VOC limit, achieving benefits equiv-
alent to SIP commitments.
CARB staff is also proposing amendments to Method
310. The proposed amendments would improve theclarity of the test method and update publication datesof test methods previously incorporated by reference.Additionally, several reference methods would be in-cluded for the purposes of implementing the alternatecompliance option. No changes in public health andsafety,  or worker safety are expected as a result of this
rulemaking.
Comparable Federal Regulations
:
There are no direct comparable federal requirements
for multi−purpose lubricant products. The “NationalV olatile Organic Compound Emission Standards forConsumer Products” (40 CFR Part 59, Subpart C, sec-tions 59.201 et seq.) set national VOC emission stan-CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2018, VOLUME NO. 14-Z
 564dards for various categories of consumer products. The
regulation became effective on September 11, 1998,
and the VOC limits became effective on December 10,1998. There are similarities and differences between
the California and National Consumer Products Regu-
lations. However, the National Consumer ProductsRegulation does not include VOC limits for MPL prod-
ucts or limits on chemicals with high global warming
potential.
An Evaluation of Inconsistency or Incompatibility
with Existing State Regulations (Gov. Code,
§ 11346.5, subd. (a)(3)(D)) :
During the process of developing the proposed regu-
latory action, CARB conducted a search of any similar
regulations on this topic and concluded these regula-
tions are neither inconsistent nor incompatible with ex-
isting state regulations.
MANDATED BY FEDERAL LAW OR
REGULATIONS 
(Gov. Code, §§ 11346.2, subd.  (c), 11346.9)
The proposed regulatory action is not mandated by
federal law or regulations.
DISCLOSURE REGARDING THE
PROPOSED REGULATION
Fiscal Impact/Local Mandate Determination
Regarding the Proposed Action  (Gov. Code,
§11346.5, subds. (a)(5)&(6)) :
The determinations of the Board’s Executive Officer
concerning the costs or savings incurred by public
agencies and private persons and businesses in reason-
able compliance with the proposed regulatory actionare presented below.
Under Government Code sections 11346.5, subdivi-
sion (a)(5) and 11346.5, subdivision (a)(6), the Execu-
tive Officer has determined that the proposed regulato-ry action would not create costs or savings to any Stateagency or in federal funding to the State, costs or man-
date to any local agency or school district, whether or
not reimbursable by the State under Government Code,title 2, division 4, part 7 (commencing with section
17500), or other nondiscretionary cost or savings to
State or local agencies.
Housing Costs (Gov. Code, § 1 1346.5, subd. (a)(12))
:
The Executive Officer has also made the initial deter-
mination that the proposed regulatory action will nothave a significant effect on housing costs.Significant Statewide Adverse Economic Impact
Directly Affecting Business,  Including Ability to
Compete (Gov. Code, §§ 1 1346.3, subd. (a), 1 1346.5,
subd. (a)(7), 1 1346.5, subd. (a)(8)) :
The Executive Of ficer has made an initial determina-
tion that the proposed regulatory action would not have
a significant statewide adverse economic impact direct-
ly affecting businesses, including the ability of Califor-
nia businesses to compete with businesses in otherstates, or on representative private persons.
Results of the Economic Impact Analysis/
Assessment (Gov. Co de, § 11346.5,  subd. (a)(10)) :
NON−MAJOR REGULATION: Statement of the
Results of the Economic Impact Assessment (EIA) :
Effect on Jobs/Businesses:
The Executive Officer has determined that the pro-
posed regulatory action would not affect the creation or
elimination of jobs within the State of California, the
creation of new businesses or elimination of existingbusinesses within the State of California, or the expan-
sion of businesses currently doing business within the
State of California.
These determinations are based on an economic as-
sessment that leads the Executive Officer to expect no
adverse economic impacts from the proposed regulato-
ry action. A detailed assessment of the economic im-pacts of the proposed regulatory action can be found in
the Economic Impact Analysis in the Initial Statement
of Reasons (ISOR).
Benefits of the Pr oposed Regulation:
The objective of the proposed regulatory action is to
provide flexibility for manufacturers of MPL products
to comply with the mass−based 10 percent by weight
VOC limit. This added flexibility may allow manufac-turers to formulate the effective products that con-
sumers expect while providing the same ozone air qual-
ity benefits as products meeting the 10 percent byweight mass−based VOC limit and at a lower cost.
A summary of these benefits is provided. Please refer
to “Objectives and Benefits,” under the Informative Di-
gest of Proposed Action and Policy Statement Over-view Pursuant to Government Code § 11346.5(a)(3)discussion above.
Cost impacts on a representative private person or
business (Gov. Code,  § 1 1346.5(a)(9)) :
In developing this regulatory proposal, CARB staff
evaluated the potential cost impacts on representative
private persons or businesses. No manufacturer is re-quired to participate and only those which determine it
is in the best financial interest of the company are ex-
pected to do so. If no manufacturers participate, these
amendments have no cost. If all four California manu-facturers choose to participate, then incurred costs will
be $84,064 from reporting and recordkeeping over theCALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2018, VOLUME NO. 14-Z
 5655−year lifetime of the regulation. Staff estimates
$133,440 in cost savings to these California businesses
as a result of avoided reformulation cost due to the pro-
posed amendments. Thus, the net impact of the pro-
posed amendments is a cost savings to California busi-
nesses. Staff expects there would be no impact on con-sumers.
Effect on Small Business (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 1, § 4,
subds. (a) and (b)):  
The Executive Officer has also determined under
California Code of Regulations, title 1, section 4, that
the proposed regulatory action would affect two Cali-fornia small b usinesses, which are among the four Cali-
fornia companies staff identified as having MPL prod-
ucts that do not comply with the 10 percent VOC limit.
Staff identified 22 companies located outside Califor-nia that have products that do not meet the 10  percent
VOC limit.
Consideration of Alternatives (Gov. Code, §
11346.5, subd. (a)(13)): 
Before taking final action on the proposed regulatory
action, the Board must determine that no reasonable al-
ternative considered by the Board, or that has otherwise
been identified and brought to the attention of the Board
would be more ef fective in carrying out the purpose for
which the action is proposed, would be as effective and
less burdensome to affected private persons than the
proposed action, or would be more cost−effective to af-
fected private persons and equally effective in imple-menting the statutory policy or other provisions of law.
The Executive Officer analyzed four alternatives to
the proposed amendments and determined that all alter-natives would be less effective in carrying out the pur-
pose for which the action is proposed.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
CARB, as the lead agency for the proposed amend-
ments to the Consumer Products Regulation, has pre-
pared an environmental analysis (EA) under its certi-
fied regulatory program (California Code of Regula-tions, title 17, sections 60000 through 60008) to comply
with the requirements of the California Environmental
Quality Act (CEQA; Public Resources Code section
21080.5). The EA determined that the proposed amend-
ments would not result in any significant adverse im-pacts on the environment. The basis for reaching this
conclusion is provided in Chapter VI of the ISOR. Writ-
ten comments on the EA will be accepted during a45−day public review period starting on April 6, 2018,
and ending at 5:00 p.m. on May 21, 2018.SPECIAL ACCOMMODATION REQUEST

The CIRM proposes to amend its conflict−of−interest
code to include employee positions that involve themaking or participation in the making of decisions that
may foreseeably have a material effect on any financial
interest, as set forth in subdivision (a) of section 87302
of the Government Code. The amendment carries outthe purposes of the law and no other alternative would
do so and be less burdensome to af fected persons.
Changes to the conflict−of−interest code include: up-
dating the place and manner of filing statements of eco-nomic interests, updating position titles and agency or-
ganization, and also making other technical changes.
No changes are proposed to the definitions of disclosurecategories (Appendix B).
