Subject: CA gov't news- Fluoride & its salts being considered for Prop 65 list
To: GlobalHazmat <burkegene@...>
Fyi-- This CA Prop 65 news item just received from NYSCOF's
Carol Kopf. As one quickly could determine by google-searching fluoride
carcinogen, what appears are
links to an impressive amount of human and animal cancer research on
Fluoride that seem to have gotten it more respect (finally) as a
candidate for official consideration by CA
gov't as a carcinogen and/or possible/probable mutagen.

forwarded this. It appears California is looking
at the possibility that fluoride causes cancer under the requirements
of their Proposition 65 passed in 1986 which requires the Governor to
publish, at least annually, a list of chemicals known to the state to cause cancer or

Proposition 65
PRIORITIZATION: CHEMICALS FOR CONSULTATION BY THE CARCINOGEN IDENTIFICATION
COMMITTEE
[03/05/09]
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 (Proposition 65). OEHHA
has screened candidate chemicals in a cancer tracking data base for evidence of cancer hazard as well as human
exposure in California. The screening follows the procedure established in December 2004 and described in the OEHHA
document “Process for Prioritizing Chemicals for Consideration under Proposition 65 by the State’s Qualified Experts.”
OEHHA has applied two data screens to roughly half the chemicals in a tracking database: a human data screen and an
animal data screen. This screening approach was discussed at the November 17, 2007 and November 5, 2008 meetings
of the Carcinogen Identification Committee (CIC). The CIC is comprised of the state’s qualified experts for carcinogenicity
for implementing Proposition 65.
OEHHA subjected the chemicals passing the screens to a preliminary toxicological evaluation, as described in the 2004
OEHHA document. As a result of this preliminary evaluation, OEHHA identified the 38 chemicals listed below for possible
preparation of hazard identification materials. At its next meeting - on Friday, May 29, 2009 – the CIC will provide OEHHA
with advice on the prioritization of these chemicals for possible preparation of hazard identification materials. Based on
the CIC’s advice, OEHHA will select chemicals for preparation of Hazard Identification Materials. These materials will be
used by the CIC at future meetings to decide which chemicals to add to the Proposition 65 list. No listing decisions will be
made concerning these chemicals at the May 29 meeting.
This notice marks the start of a 60-day public comment period. The comment period ends May 5, 2009. Interested parties
may provide comment on the extent of the scientific evidence pertaining to the selection of any of these chemicals for
possible preparation of hazard identification materials. OEHHA will forward the comments to the CIC members prior to their
meeting.
The CIC meeting will be held in the Sierra Hearing Room of the California Environmental Protection Agency headquarters
building located at 1001 I Street, Sacramento. The meeting will begin at 10:00 a.m. and will last until all business is
conducted. The agenda for the meeting will be provided in a future public notice published in advance of the meeting.

information on the chemicals and related attachments will be available

California - Proposition 65
Proposition 65, the Safe Drinking Water and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986, was enacted as a ballot initiative in November 1986. The Proposition was intended by its authors to protect California citizens and the State's drinking water sources from chemicals known to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm, and to inform citizens about exposures to such chemicals.
Proposition 65 requires the Governor to publish, at least annually, a list of chemicals known to the state to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity

WAKE-UP AUSTRALIA!! AND THOSE OTHER COUNTRIES STILL SILICOFLUORIDE POISONING THE WATER SUPPLIES WITH POISON TOXIC WASTE SOURCED FROM INDUSTRY UNDER THE LONGEST RUNNING FRAUD IN HISTORY "WATER FLUORIDATION SCHEMES" - THIS IS INSANITY AND CRIMINAL TO CONTINUE DOING SO! Calling a Global Revolution against silicofluoride S6 (S7) poisons in our water supplies as "water fluoridation schemes". These are dangerous poisons and the Evidence of Extreme Harm in The scientific, medical, dental and court evidence received in worldwide submissions proving that fluoridation causes disease, deaths, tooth decay and is useless and environmentally destructive has been suppressed, buried and denied by Governments and their interests. http://www.americanchronicle.com/articles/33574 An example POISON IN YOUR WATER SUPPLIES http://www.redox.com/msds/data/sosili.html Massive collusion, corruption & conflicts of interests http://afgen.com/fluoridation.html Paul Connett's FLUORIDE ACTION NETWORK www.fluoridealert.org/ UK COUNCIL AGAINST FLUORIDATION www.ukcaf.org QUEENSLANDERS FOR SAFE WATER www.qawf.org *FLUORIDE *INFORMATION* AUSTRALIA* www.dianabuckland.webs.com QUEENSLANDERS FOR SAFE WATER GOLD COAST www.thehealthvine.net Say No to Recycled Sewerage & fluoride www.goldcoastwaterwatch.webs.com MCS-GLOBAL WEBSITE: www.mcs-global.org PEOPLE'S CLASS ACTION TRUST www.peoplesclassaction.org http://www.keepers-of-the-well.org/Highlights_Litigation.pdf Our members review of evidence over the last eleven years, including animal and human epidemiology studies, indicate a causal link between fluoride/fluoridation and cancer, genetic damage, neurological impairment, and bone pathology. Of particular concern are recent epidemiology studies linking fluoride exposures to lower I.Q. in children. As professionals who are charged with assessing the safety of drinking water, we conclude that the health and welfare of the public are not served by the addition of this substance to the public water supply. If artificial fluoridation of public water supplies causes cancer in man, as the published laboratory studies and epidemiological surveys indicate, and as judicial findings confirm, then nobody should be surprised to see that it produces a host of other human ailments. Who should be surprised to learn that dumping a carcinogen and mutagen in public drinking water has not only been accompanied by devastating increases in cancer mortality, but may also reduce human intelligence? The end of fluoridation will take time, but not because time is necessary to develop essential scientific information. We already know enough to appreciate the enormity of the risk. We knew enough many years ago. But the end will finally arrive, because, as Aristotle said at the beginning of the Metaphysics, all men by nature desire to know. Ignorance cannot be perpetuated forever. The necessary legal and scientific reforms will come in the twenty-first century. Our descendants will look back on us, and they will be amazed.
