CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2020, VOLUME NUMBER 16-Z PROPOSED ACTION ON REGULATIONS Information contained in this document is published as received from agencies and is not edited by Thomson Reuters. TITLE 2.

FAIR POLITICAL PRACTICES COMMISSION NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Fair Political Practices Commission, pursuant to the authority vested in it by Sections 82011, 87303, and 87304 of the Gov- ernment Code to review proposed conflict−of−interest codes, will review the proposed/amended conflict−of− interest codes of the following: CONFLICT−OF−INTEREST CODES AMENDMENT MULTI−COUNTY: Allan Hancock Joint Community College District A written comment period has been established com- mencing on April 17, 2020 and closing on June 1, 2020.

Written comments should be directed to the Fair Politi- cal Practices Commission, Attention Amanda Apostol, 1102 Q Street, Suite 3000, Sacramento, California 95811. At the end of the 45−day comment period, the pro- posed conflict−of−interest code(

s) will be submitted to the Commission’s Executive Director for his review, unless any interested person or his or her duly autho- rized representative requests, no later than 15 days prior to the close of the written comment period, a public hearing before the full Commission. If a public hearing is requested, the proposed code(

s) will be submitted to the Commission for review. The Executive Director of the Commission will re- view the above−referenced conflict−of−interest code(s), proposed pursuant to Government Code Sec- tion 87300, which designate, pursuant to Government Code

Section 87302, employees who must disclose cer- tain investments, interests in real property and income. The Executive Director of the Commission, upon his or its own motion or at the request of any interested per- son, will approve, or revise and approve, or return the proposed code(

s) to the agency for revision and re− submission within 60 days without further notice. Any interested person may present statements, argu- ments or comments, in writing to the Executive Direc- tor of the Commission, relative to review of the pro- posed conflict−of−interest code(s). Any written com- ments must be received no later than June 1, 2020. If a public hearing is to be held, oral comments may be pre- sented to the Commission at the hearing.

COST TO LOCAL AGENCIES There shall be no reimbursement for any new or in- creased costs to local government which may result from compliance with these codes because these are not new programs mandated on local agencies by the codes since the requirements described herein were mandated by the Political Reform Act of 1974. Therefore, they are not “costs mandated by the state” as defined in Govern- ment Code

Section 17514. EFFECT ON HOUSING COSTS AND BUSINESSES Compliance with the codes has no potential effect on housing costs or on private persons, businesses or small businesses. AUTHORITY Government Code Sections 82011, 87303 and 87304 provide that the Fair Political Practices Commission as the code reviewing body for the above conflict−of− interest codes shall approve codes as submitted, revise the proposed code and approve it as revised, or return the proposed code for revision and re−submission.

REFERENCE Government Code Sections 87300 and 87306 pro- vide that agencies shall adopt and promulgate conflict− of−interest codes pursuant to the Political Reform Act and amend their codes when change is necessitated by changed circumstances. CONTACT Any inquiries concerning the proposed conflict−of− interest code(

s) should be made to Amanda Apostol, Fair Political Practices Commission, 1102 Q Street, Suite 3000, Sacramento, California 95811, telephone (916) 324−5854. 607

TITLE 2. FAIR POLITICAL PRACTICES COMMISSION NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the Fair Political Practices Commission (the Commission), under the au- thority vested in it under the Political Reform Act (the Act) 1 by

Section 83112 of the Government Code, pro- poses to adopt, amend, or repeal regulations in Title 2, Division 6 of the California Code of Regulations. The Commission will consider the proposed regulations at a public hearing on or after May 20, 2020, by teleconfer- ence, commencing at approximately 10:00 a.m. You may also listen to and participate in this meeting by tele- conference by calling: (877) 411−9748 access code 723284. Written comments must be received at the Commission offices no later than 5:00 p.m. on May 18, 2020. BACKGROUND/OVERVIEW

Section 82047 of the Act requires the disclosure of a person who makes a campaign contribution, defining “person” broadly to include limited liability companies (LLCs). Under Sections 82013(

b) and (c), respectively, an LLC that makes independent expenditures totaling $1,000 or more in a calendar year qualifies as an Inde- pendent Expenditure (“IE”) Committee, while an LLC that makes contributions totaling $10,000 or more in a calendar year qualifies as a Major Donor Committee.

IE Committees and Major Donors must complete Form 461 (Major Donor and Independent Expenditure Com- mittee Campaign Statement), which provides a summa- ry of all contributions and expenditures made, as well as information regarding the filer, such as the filer’s name and mailing address, responsible officer, and business interests. 1 The Political Reform Act is contained in Government Code Sec- tions 81000 through 91014. All statutory references are to the Government Code, unless otherwise indicated.

The regulations of the Fair Political Practices Commission are contained in Sections 18110 through 18997 of Title 2 of the California Code of Regula- tions. All regulatory references are to Title 2, Division 6 of the California Code of Regulations, unless otherwise indicated. However, neither the Act nor the Commission Regu- lations define “responsible officer,” allowing an LLC filer to simply list its registered agent, attorney, or ac- countant on Form 461, as opposed to the individual(

s) responsible for directing and controlling the LLCs con- tributions and expenditures. Another impediment to truthful disclosure of LLC political activities is that re- cipient committees who receive contributions from an LLC generally list only the name of the LLC, as op- posed to the individual or individuals who funded or di- rected the LLCs contributions or expenditures.

Further complicating matters is the fact that the California Cor- porations Code permits an LLC to list another corporate entity as its registered agent and/or manager and there- fore no individual is identified. 2 The lack of information about the individuals respon- sible for the political activity attributed to LLCs makes investigation of suspicious activity extremely challeng- ing and burdensome, leaving the public no way to deter- mine the source of LLC political activity. REGULATORY ACTION Adopt 2 Cal. Code Regs.

Section 18402.2 — Limited Liability Companies, Responsible Officer. Adoption of Regulation 18402.2. The Commission may consider adopting new Regulation 18402.2. At a minimum, Commission staff anticipates proposing the following:  Defining “responsible officer” for LLCs that qualify as IE Committees or Major Donors as “the individual primarily responsible for approving the political activity of the limited liability company.”  Providing that, if one or more individuals share primary responsibility for the LLC’s political activity, at least one such individual must be listed as the LLC’s responsible officer. Adopt 2 Cal. Code Regs.

Section 18421.10 — Reporting Contributions from Limited Liability Companies. Adoption of Regulation 18421.10. The Commission may consider adopting new Regulation 18421.10. At a minimum, Commission staff anticipates proposing the following:  Detailing the information a committee that receives a contribution from an LLC must include 2 On an LLCs Articles of Organization (Form LLC1), filed with the Secretary of State’s Office, an LLC must designate an agent and a manager, and list the name and address of both.

An LLC must also indicate whether it is member−managed (i.e. managed by its investors) or manager−managed (i.e. professionally man- aged by an outsider). Many LLCs remain anonymous by appoint- ing a professional agent and manager, such an attorney or accoun- tant, thereby never having to reveal their members or the sources of capital contributions (i.e. funding). 608

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2020, VOLUME NUMBER 16-Z as part of a contributor’s “name” on its campaign statements and reports, including:  Requiring a committee that receives a contribution from an LLC to provide the name of the individual responsible for the LLC’s political activity.  Providing that, if more than one individual shares in the primary responsibility for approving a contribution, a committee must report at least one such individual; and  For contributions of $100 or more received from an LLC that has qualified as a recipient committee, requiring that the “name” must include the LLC’s principal officer.

Pesce, Executive Assistant California Prison Industry Authority 560 East Natoma Street, Folsom, CA 95630 Telephone (916) 358−1711 AUTHORITY AND REFERENCE Penal Code

Section 2800: In 1982, the California Legislature restructured the Department of Correc- tions’ industries and vocational training program for in- mates abolishing the Correctional Industries Commis- sion and replacing it with the newly created Prison In- dustry Authority (PIA) (subsequently renamed CALPIA) under the direction of the Prison Industry Board. Penal Code

Section 2807(a):

Section 2807(

a) pro- vides that CALPIA is authorized and empowered to op- erate industrial, agricultural, and service enterprises which will provide products and services needed by the state, or any political subdivision thereof, or by the fed- eral government, or any department, agency, or corpo- ration thereof, or for any other public use. Products may be purchased by state agencies to be offered for sale to inmates of the department and to any other person under the care of the state who resides in state−operated insti- tutional facilities.

Fresh meat may be purchased by food service operations in state−owned facilities and sold for onsite consumption. By giving CALPIA these duties and powers by statute, rulemaking authority is implicit- ly delegated to adopt those rules and regulations neces- sary for the due and efficient exercise of a duty or power expressly granted. Penal Code

Section 2802:

Section 2802 provides for the existence of a Prison Industry Board (PIB). Penal Code

Section 2808:

Section 2808 provides the PIB, in the exercise of its duties, all of the powers and do all of the things that the board of directors of a private corporation would do. State Departments have been given “Quasi− Legislative” powers to adopt rules (regulations) that are consistent with state law so that they can run the pro- grams they that are responsible for. One court opinion described this as the power to “fill in the details” of the state statute(

s) that empower a department to operate a program. Helene Curtis, Inc. v. Assessment Appeals Bd. (1999) 76 Cal.App.4 th 124. By the implied terms of Pe- nal Code Sections 2808, 2802, 2807 and 2800, CALPIA has the authority to adopt regulations to implement, in- terpret, make specific or otherwise carry out the provi- sions of these statutes. INFORMATIVE DIGEST CALPIA is amending

Section 8004.2 to incorporate basic inmate employment hire documentation for recordkeeping and maintaining efficient operations. This amendment includes two forms: “Inmate Ac- knowledgement of Policies, Procedures, Rules and Regulations, Rev. 3/5/2020, IEP F002/IEP F003.” and “Offender Job Change Request Form.” Rev. 3/29/16 610

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2020, VOLUME NUMBER 16-Z Rev. A, SOMS F001. The Offender Job Change Re- quest Form is for internal management and is included for information. POLICY STATEMENT OVERVIEW In order for CALPIA to function safely and efficient- ly, these revised regulations are needed to provide and enforce standard workplace practices and provide fa- miliarity with those practices for inmates upon release from custody and post−custody employment. CALPIA provides inmates with work opportunities to develop work skills and experience applicable upon release from custody.

It is standard practice for employers to re- quire applicants and staff to execute appointment and other documents regarding the terms and conditions of employment. Therefore, CALPIA is amending

Section 8004.2 to include this same requirement. As part of the appoint- ment process inmates must be provided acknowledge- ment of policies, procedures, other documents and/or conditions of appointment and appointment documents for review and signature. Failure or refusal to sign for and/or acknowledge receipt of policies, procedures, other documents and/or conditions of appointment and appointment documents as requested by their supervi- sor, or CALPIA, will result in immediate removal from the CALPIA work program.

This amendment is neces- sary as inmates may refuse to sign inmate worker hire and employment documentation. As a result, it is neces- sary to implement this amendment through the Admin- istrative Procedures Act as requirement of inmate worker assignment. Anticipated Benefits of the Proposed Regulation: Anticipated benefits of the proposed regulatory ac- tion include:  Inmates’ experience and familiarity with standard practice by employers to require applicants and staff to execute appointment and other documents regarding the terms and conditions of employment.

This regulatory amendment provides inmates familiarity and experience with general standard workplace practices they will encounter upon release from custody and conditions of employment.  Facilitate operations and increase placement of inmate workers in assignments by adding language to 8004.2 to affirm that the process of submitting names from the Inmate Candidate Pool for inmate workers does not require manager approval and signature authorization.

Evaluation of Inconsistency/Incompatibility with Existing Regulations: CALPIA evaluated whether the proposed regulations are inconsistent or incompatible with existing state reg- ulations and has determined that no other state regula- tions address the same subject matter and that the pro- posed regulations are consistent and compatible with other existing state regulations.

During the process of developing this regulation, CALPIA has conducted a search of any similar regula- tions on this topic and has concluded that these regula- tions are neither inconsistent nor incompatible with ex- isting laws and regulations. After conducting a review for regulations that would relate to or affect this area, CALPIA has concluded that these are the only CALPIA regulations that concern this exact processes and proce- dures for the adoption, amendment, and repeal of regu- lations by California state agencies.

Mandated by Federal Law or Regulations: The proposed regulations are not federally mandated. DISCLOSURES REGARDING THE PROPOSED ACTION Local Mandates: Mandate on local agencies and school districts: None. This action imposes no mandates on local agencies or school districts, or a mandate which requires reim- bursement pursuant to Government Code Sections 17500 through 17630. Fiscal Impact Statement: Cost or savings to any state agency: None. Cost to any local agency or school district that is re- quired to be reimbursed in accordance with Govern- ment Code Sections 17500 through 17630: None.

Other nondiscretionary cost or savings imposed on local agencies: None. Cost or savings in federal funding to the State: None. Cost impact on a representative private person or business: None. CALPIA is not aware of any cost impacts that a repre- sentative private person or business would necessarily incur in reasonable compliance with the proposed action.

Significant Statewide Adverse Economic Impact on Business: CALPIA has initially determined that the proposed action will not have a significant statewide adverse eco- nomic impact directly affecting businesses, including the ability of California businesses to compete with businesses in other states because they are not affected by the internal management of CALPIA employees. 611

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2020, VOLUME NUMBER 16-Z Effect of Housing Costs: CALPIA has determined that the proposed action will have no significant effect of housing costs. Results of the Economic Impact Analysis/ Assessment: CALPIA concludes that it is unlikely that the pro- posed regulations will: (1) create or eliminate any jobs; (2) create or eliminate any businesses; or (3) result in the expansion of businesses currently doing business within the state. In accordance with the Government Code

Section 11346.3(b), the CALPIA has made the following as- sessments regarding the proposed regulation. Benefits of Proposed Action: As stated above under the Informative Digest and Policy Statement Overview, the benefits of the regula- tory action include:  Inmates’ experience and familiarity with standard practice by employers to require applicants and staff to execute appointment and other documents regarding the terms and conditions of employment.

This regulatory amendment provides inmates familiarity and experience with general standard workplace practices they will encounter upon release from custody and conditions of employment.  Facilitate operations and increase placement of inmate workers in assignments by adding language to 8004.2 to affirm that the process of submitting names from the Inmate Candidate Pool for inmate workers does not require manager approval and signature authorization. Thus, this proposed action benefits the public and general welfare.

Creation or Elimination of Jobs within the State of California: CALPIA has determined that these regulatory changes will have no impact on the creation or elimina- tion of existing jobs within California because those jobs are not affected by the internal management of CALPIA employees. Creation, Expansion, or Elimination of Existing Businesses (Small or Large) within the State of California: This action will not create or eliminate existing jobs within the State of California.

It is determined that this action has no significant adverse economic impact on jobs within the State of California because these jobs are not affected by CALPIA’s proposed regulatory changes any differently than exists presently or there is no impact on existing jobs and therefore there is no im- pact with the adoption of this section. Reports Relied Upon: None. Cost Impacts on Representative Private Persons or Businesses: CALPIA is not aware of any cost impacts that a repre- sentative, private person or business would necessarily incur in reasonable compliance with the proposed action.

Effect on Small Businesses: CALPIA has determined that this action has no sig- nificant adverse economic impact on small business be- cause they are not affected the internal management of CALPIA inmate workers. Consideration of Alternatives: In accordance with Government Code

section 11346.5, subdivision (a)(13), CALPIA must determine that no reasonable alternative it considered or that has otherwise been identified and brought to its attention would be more effective in carrying out the purpose for which the action is proposed or would be as effective and less burdensome to affected private person 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 provision of law.

Interested persons may present statements or argu- ments with respect to alternatives to the proposed regu- lations to the aforementioned contact persons.

In 2016, the Department promulgated an editorial package [Office of Administrative Law (OAL) File Number 2016−0706−02NR] in order to conform its cri- sis nurseries regulations with changes made to Health and Safety Code sections 1502, 1516 and 1526.8 by three pieces of legislation: Senate Bill (SB) 1214 (Chapter 519, Statutes of 2010), SB 1319 (Chapter 663, Statutes of 2012), and Assembly Bill (AB) 2228 (Chap- ter 735, Statutes of 2014).

Effective July 1, 2012, SB 1214 (Chapter 519, Statutes of 2010) amended Health and Safety Code (HSC) sections 1516, 1526.8 and 1596.792 related to the licensing of Crisis Nurseries (CNs) pursuant to the Community Care Facilities Act. It specified that “vol- untary placement” in a CN does not include placement of a child who has been removed from the care and cus- tody of his or her parent and placed in foster care. The definition of “Crisis Nursery” was amended according- ly to exclude placements by a county welfare services agency.

Effective January 1, 2015, AB 2228 (Chapter 735, Statutes of 2014), amended HSC sections 1502, 1516, 1526.8. Amendments to

Section 1502 added a defini- tion of a CN, and amendments to

Section 1516 included a requirement that CNs set capacity for crisis day ser- vices based on the facility’s square footage, and changes to policies regarding exceptions. Amendments to

Section 1526.8 revised paid staff and volunteer train- ing requirements, reduced staff−to−child ratios for old- er children, and enacted requirements for medications. During the regulatory review process, OAL deter- mined that a number of changes the Department sought to make were substantive, and not appropriate for an ed- itorial package. These changes are being pursued as the Department believes they are necessary to ensure that the Department’s regulations conform with the provi- sions of the statutes referenced above.

The Department has attempted to ensure that these regulatory amendments comply with the non− duplication standard (Title 1, California Code of Regu- lations), however the amended regulations duplicate California statute in places where clarification of the law was required or where access to regulatory require- ments in their full context is necessary for clarity. This is especially true of regulations amended due to changes made by AB 2228, which codified many existing regu- lations governing crisis nurseries into statute.

In order to bring its crisis nurseries regulations into conformity with the law, and provide necessary clarifi- cation, the Department is proposing amendments in the following areas: Health and Safety Code

Section 1502 The definition of “authorized representative” has been amended to be consistent with HSC

section 1502(a)(17) which limits who can place in a crisis nurs- ery to a child’s parent or legal guardian. Health and Safety Code

Section 1516 Statutory changes made in HSC

section 1516 neces- sitated repealing or amending sections that reference county placements. In this package the phrase “placed elsewhere” as used in

Section 86568.4 has been amend- ed to “removed or discharged.” Use of the term “place- ment,” and reference to the State Foster Care Ombuds- man, placement workers, social workers, the legal sys- tem and other aspects relevant to the child welfare sys- tem have been removed or amended from

Section

Section 86587.2 has been amended to reflect that the maximum capacity for crisis day services is based on square footage as specified in the statute. The term “le- gal guardian” has been added to

Section 86568.1(b)(1) for consistency with statute. Health and Safety Code

Section 1526.8 Conforming edits have been made to the training and education requirements in 86565(

q) and (

x) for care- givers and volunteers now codified in HSC

section 1526.8. Additional Clarifying Amendments The definition of “responsible person” in 86501(r)(3) is removed as the phrase does not appear elsewhere in the regulations. Sections 86524 and 86570 are amended to clarify document retention policies. An instance in 86565.5 where a reference is made to statute is changed to an identical regulation for ease of use.

Section 86575 is amended to clarify requirements surrounding the administration and documentation of medication. Instances where “authorized representatives” and “authorized representative(s)” are used are revised to the singular “authorized representative” for consisten- cy and clarity. Other grammatical clarifying changes are made. 614

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2020, VOLUME NUMBER 16-Z Anticipated Benefit of the Proposed Action The benefits of the regulatory action to the health and welfare of California residents, worker safety, and the state’s environment are as follows: The regulations as amended will provide clarity to providers offering crisis nursery services to their communities, improving their ability to protect the health and safety of children re- ceiving their services.

By clarifying personnel require- ments with regard to volunteer health this regulatory ac- tion may yield a minor, indirect benefit to worker safety at crisis nurseries. The state’s environment is not affect- ed by this regulatory action.

The Department considered other possible related regulations in this area, and we found that these are the only regulations dealing in this subject area (Crisis Nurseries); and, therefore, the Department finds that these proposed regulations are compatible and consis- tent with the intent of the Legislature in adopting SB 1214, SB 1319, and AB 2228, as well as with existing state regulations. COST ESTIMATE 1. Costs or Savings to State Agencies: No fiscal impact. 2. Costs to Local Agencies or School Districts Which Must Be Reimbursed in Accordance With Government Code Sections 17500−17630: None. 3.

Nondiscretionary Costs or Savings to Local Agencies: No fiscal impact. 4. Federal Funding to State Agencies: No fiscal impact. LOCAL MANDATE STATEMENT These regulations do not impose a mandate on local agencies or school districts. There are no state−mandat- ed local costs in these regulations which require State reimbursement under

Section 17500 et seq. of the Gov- ernment Code. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANT ADVERSE ECONOMIC IMPACT ON BUSINESS The Department has made an initial determination that the proposed action will not have a significant, statewide adverse economic impact directly affecting businesses, including the ability of California business- es to compete with businesses in other states. This de- termination was made based on the fact that these are minor clarifying regulations.

STATEMENT OF POTENTIAL COST IMPACT ON PRIV ATE PERSONS OR BUSINESSES The Department is not aware of any cost impacts that a representative private person or business would nec- essarily incur in reasonable compliance with the pro- posed action. SMALL BUSINESS IMPACT STATEMENT These regulations will impact crisis nurseries that are operating as small businesses; however, complying with them will incur little to no costs to these providers.

STATEMENT OF RESULTS OF ECONOMIC IMPACT ASSESSMENT The Department has determined that the adoption of these regulations will neither create nor eliminate jobs in the State of California nor result in the elimination of existing businesses or create or expand businesses in the State of California. The regulations as amended will yield the benefit of providing clarity to providers offer- ing crisis nursery services to their communities, im- proving their ability to protect the health and safety of children receiving their services.

By clarifying person- nel requirements with regard to volunteer health this regulatory action may also yield a minor, indirect bene- fit to worker safety at crisis nurseries. The state’s envi- ronment is not affected by this regulatory action. STATEMENT OF EFFECT ON HOUSING COSTS The proposed regulatory action will have no effect on housing costs. STATEMENT OF ALTERNATIVES CONSIDERED These regulations primarily respond to changes in statute and in collaboration with affected stakeholders. No alternatives have been presented to the Department for review.

The Department must determine that no reasonable alternative considered or that has otherwise been identi- fied and brought to the attention of the Department would be more effective in carrying out the purpose for which the regulations are proposed or would be as ef- fective as and less burdensome to affected private per- sons than the proposed action, or would be more cost− effective to affected private persons and equally effec- tive in implementing the statutory policy or other provi- sion of law. AUTHORITY AND REFERENCE CITATIONS The Department adopts these regulations under the authority granted in

Release Date: April 17, 2020 DEPARTMENT OF TOXIC SUBSTANCES CONTROL NOTICE OF PROPOSED SETTLEMENT THIS NOTICE OF PROPOSED SETTLEMENT is published on April 17, 2020, for the property located at 22116 West Soledad Canyon Road in Santa Clarita, California (the “Site”). In accordance with Health and Safety Code sections 25100 et seq. (the Hazardous Waste Control Act), 25300 et seq. (the Hazardous Substance Account Act), 58009 and 58010, the Department of Toxic Substances Control (“DTSC”) has authority to enter into agree- 616

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2020, VOLUME NUMBER 16-Z ments whereby DTSC covenants not to sue or assert claims for environmental remediation against prospec- tive owners and certain long term lessees of environ- mentally impacted properties, if such agreements are sufficiently in the public interest. Notice is hereby given that DTSC proposes to enter into an Agreement and Covenant Not to Sue, also known as a Prospective Purchaser Agreement (“PPA”), associated with the former Whittaker−Bermite facility located at 22116 West Soledad Canyon Road.

The PPA would resolve certain potential claims of DTSC against the company that is the potential prospective owner of the Site. The potential prospective owner, Blue Ox Holdings, LLC, would commence land use planning leading to future grading and development activities at the 996−acre site located at 22116 West Soledad Canyon Road in Santa Clarita, in Los Angeles County [Assessor’s Parcel Numbers: 2836−012−012, 2836−012−032, 2836−067−002, 2836−067−902 and 2836−012−019].

The PPA would resolve potential claims against Blue Ox Holdings, LLC, upon its poten- tial acquisition of the Site and resulting change in status to owner. Corrective action to address releases of hazardous wastes and hazardous constituents at the Site has been conducted by Whittaker Corporation under oversight of the DTSC.

The potential purchaser agrees to cooperate fully with DTSC in its oversight of the environmental investigation and implementation of response actions at the Site by other parties, and agrees to comply with the land use controls and to provide ongoing access for the implementation of the remedy of the Site. The Prospective Purchaser Agreement is in the public interest because: 1. The beneficial reuse of the Site will allow for the potential employment of an estimated 4,300 construction−related jobs in Santa Clarita; 2.

The project will generate approximately $7.25 million in annual property taxes and other city revenue, and new master planned and integrated residential, commercial and retail uses generating approximately 3,100 new jobs; 3. New city amenities will be provided, including 300 acres of new park and open space resources; and 4. The project will result in improved environmental conditions for community members through the rehabilitation of blighted and unproductive land. DTSC will hold a 30−day comment period on the above referenced PPA.

Written comments on this pro- posed settlement must be submitted on or before 5:00 p.m., May 18, 2020.

To ensure timely receipt by DTSC and Blue Ox Holdings, you are requested to transmit your comments by overnight mail or by email to: Department of Toxic Substances Control Attn: Jose Diaz 9211 Oakdale Avenue Chatsworth, California 91311 Email: Jose.Diaz@dtsc.ca.gov and Blue Ox Holdings, LLC Attn: Max Frank 23929 Valencia Blvd., Suite 404 Santa Clarita, California 91355 Email: max.frank@33ndg.com If you have any questions regarding the Prospective Purchaser Agreement, or wish to obtain a copy, please call the DTSC contact identified above.

OFFICE OF ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH HAZARD ASSESSMENT SAFE DRINKING WATER AND TOXIC ENFORCEMENT ACT OF 1986 (PROPOSITION 65) ISSUANCE OF SAFE USE DETERMINATION FOR EXPOSURES TO BISPHENOL A FROM CERTAIN POLYCARBONATE EYEWEAR PRODUCTS MANUFACTURED, DISTRIBUTED, OR SOLD BY THE VISION COUNCIL MEMBER COMPANIES The California Environmental Protection Agency’s Office of Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) is the lead agency for the implementation of the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 1.

OEHHA received a request for a Safe Use Deter- mination (SUD) for exposures to bisphenol A (BPA) 2 from certain polycarbonate eyewear products manufac- tured, distributed, or sold by The Vision Council (TVC) member companies. The request was made by TVC, pursuant to Title 27 of the California Code of Regula- tions,

section 25204(b)(3). In accordance with the process set forth in

Section 25204(f), OEHHA held a written public comment peri- od on this request from March 8, 2019 to April 8, 2019. No hearing was requested and no public comments were received. As provided in Sections 25204(

a) and (k), OEHHA is issuing this Safe Use Determination for exposures to 1 The Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, commonly known as Proposition 65, is codified at Health and Safety Code

section 25249.5 et seq. 2 Bisphenol A (BPA) was listed under Proposition 65 as a chemi- cal known to the state to cause reproductive toxicity (female re- productive endpoint) effective May 11, 2015. 617

CALIFORNIA REGULATORY NOTICE REGISTER 2020, VOLUME NUMBER 16-Z BPA from certain polycarbonate prescription glasses and sunglasses, over−the−counter (OTC) reading glass- es, non−prescription sunglasses, and safety glasses that are manufactured, distributed, or sold by TVC member companies, with acetonitrile extractable concentrations of BPA (as determined by LC/MS/MS) in the temple, nose pad, frame, and lens at or below 25 micrograms per gram, 68 micrograms per gram, 120 micrograms per gram, and 302 micrograms per gram, respectively.

The essential elements and results of OEHHA’s as- sessment are described in the supporting documenta- tion available at: https://oehha.ca.gov/proposition−65/ proposition−65−safe−use−determinations−suds.

Based on OEHHA’s screening−level analysis of the information and data provided by TVC, the upper−end estimate of dermal exposure to BPA for users of certain polycarbonate eyewear products (prescription glasses and sunglasses, OTC reading glasses, non−prescription sunglasses, and safety glasses) manufactured, distrib- uted, or sold by TVC member companies, with acetoni- trile extractable concentrations of BPA as specified above, is 0.53 micrograms per day. This exposure esti- mate falls below the “Maximum Allowable Dose Level (MADL)” for BPA (dermal exposure from solid materi- als) of 3 micrograms per day 3.

The MADL is defined as the level of exposure that corresponds to the “no ob- served effect level” divided by 1000. Thus, exposures to BPA from use of such eyewear products, under the conditions described in OEHHA’s assessment, would not require a Proposition 65 warning.

S) SUMMARY OF REGULATORY ACTION On February 12, 2020, the Office of the State Fire Marshal (Fire Marshal) submitted to the Office of Ad- ministrative Law (OAL) its proposed regulatory action (OAL File No. 2020−0212−02S) to adopt sections in Ti- tle 19 of the California Code of Regulations. The regu- lations establish best available technology require- ments for pipelines near environmentally and ecologi- cally sensitive areas in the Coastal Zone.

The require- ments include submission of a risk analysis and imple- mentation plan, standards for requesting an exemption or deferral, and Fire Marshal standards for review. On March 26, 2020, OAL notified the Fire Marshal of its disapproval of the proposed regulations. DECISION OAL disapproved the above−referenced rulemaking action because the regulations failed to meet the consis- tency and clarity standards of the Administrative Proce- dure Act (APA). These issues must be resolved prior to OAL’s approval of any regulations.

This Decision of Disapproval of Regulatory Action explains the reasons for OAL’s action. CONCLUSION For these reasons, OAL disapproved the above− referenced rulemaking action. Pursuant to Government Code

section 11349.4(a), the Fire Marshal may resub- mit this rulemaking action within 120 days of its receipt of this Decision of Disapproval.
