BILL NUMBER:S3703 TITLE OF BILL: An act to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to expanding the TRIS-free children and babies act PURPOSE: The purpose of this bill is to limit children's exposure to certain chemicals. SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: This bill would prohibit the use of TRIS (1,3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TDCPP) in certain child care products. Justification TRIS is the common name for a family of chlori- nated flame retardants. In 2011, the Legislature banned the use of THIS (2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP) in child care products because of the risks TCEP poses to children's health. In the 1970s, THIS (1,3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TDCPP) was used in children's sleepwear as a substitute for THIS (2,3-dibromopropyl) phosp- hate (TRIS-BP), which was banned by the Consumer Product Safety Commis- sion because of potential health concerns. Subsequent testing on TDCPP caused manufacturers to stop using TDCPP in children's sleepwear volun- tarily. However, TDCPP is currently being used in plastics, resins and polyurethane foams found in car seats and baby products. TDCPP is not chemically bound to these products. As a result, TDCPP is present in indoor air and dust, in the environment, and in human tissue. Younger children, particularly babies, are especially vulnerable because of their smaller and developing bodies.

SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS: This bill would prohibit the use of TRIS (1,3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TDCPP) in certain child care products. Justification TRIS is the common name for a family of chlorinated flame retardants. In 2011, the Legislature banned the use of THIS (2-chloroethyl) phosphate (TCEP) in child care products because of the risks TCEP poses to children's health. In the 1970s, THIS (1,3-dichloro-2-propyl) phosphate (TDCPP) was used in children's sleepwear as a substitute for THIS (2,3-dibromopropyl) phosphate (TRIS-BP), which was banned by the Consumer Product Safety Commission because of potential health concerns. Subsequent testing on TDCPP caused manufacturers to stop using TDCPP in children's sleepwear voluntarily. However, TDCPP is currently being used in plastics, resins and polyurethane foams found in car seats and baby products.
