The notices serve as intent to bring lawsuits against the recipients alleging that the products sold in California contain certain chemicals in violation of Prop 65. Prop 65 requires “warning labels” on ALL products (not just children’s products) sold in California that contain lead, phthalates, cadmium, and any one of 850 other chemicals that the State of California believes could cause cancer or reproductive toxicity. Prop 65 allows so-called “citizen enforcers” to enforce the law. NGOs, other groups, and even private Californian citizens can sue in California courts and collect part of the fines.

FASA/Gemini-Supported Port Data Collection Amendment to Highway Bill Withdrawn, but Not Dead

By | Washington Newsline | No Comments

On November 5, the U.S. House of Representatives approved long-term highway funding legislation without a FASA/Gemini-supported amendment that would have required ports to report key metrics on their operations. The collection of basic uniform data on port performance is critical to address ongoing congestion issues that impact FASA/Gemini members and the national economy. FASA/Gemini and others will push for adoption of the amendment during a House-Senate conference on the highway bill.

Congress and President signed new law that averts rail crisis-Transportation Extension Act of 2015

By | Washington Newsline | No Comments

Congress approved and President Barack Obama signed into law H.R. 3819, the Surface Transportation Extension Act of 2015, which  1) extends through November 20, 2015, authority and funding for the Department of Transportation’s surface transportation programs; and (2) extends the deadline for compliance with positive train control system (PTC) implementation by three years, to December 31, 2018. FASA/Gemini had joined the U.S. business community in urging Congress to delay the January 1, 2016 deadline for railroads to install PTC. The Rail Safety Improvement Act of 2008 mandates certain railroads implement PTCs by December 31, 2015, or cease operations until such time PTCs can be installed. A recent U.S. Government Accountability Office (GAO) study found that “Most railroads in GAO’s review (20 of 29) estimate that they will implement positive train control (PTC)—a communications-based system designed to prevent certain types of train accidents—1 to 5 years after the statutory deadline of December 31, 2015. As a result, if Congress did not extend the deadline, a significant portion of the nation’s rail system would have shut down on January 1, 2016.
