Event Info
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) is collecting information from manufacturers and marketers through the Consumer and Commercial Products Survey to gather data to inform future standards. While previous surveys have focused on volatile organic compounds (VOCs), CARB is now focused on Ozone Forming Potential (OFP). CARB must continue addressing the state’s nonattainment status with the National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for ozone and are looking to shift away from the current mass-based VOC approach for consumer products and move toward a photochemical reactivity approach with the use of Maximum Incremental Reactivity (MIR).
Building on HCPA’s previous industry training, which explained how to determine the MIR of an ingredient, in this webinar, Nicholas Georges, Senior Vice President of Scientific & International Affairs at HCPA; Doug Raymond, Industry Consultant; and Jonathan Webb, Regulatory Affairs Advisory at ExxonMobil Product Solutions Company, will educate attendees about hydrocarbon solvents from the regulation of VOCs and complying with potential MIR standards.
