PSL - Flammability: The Changing Landscape of FR Rules

Event | 02.19.13, 12:00 AM UTC - 12:00 AM UTC

The flammability of consumer products is a growing product safety concern. On one hand, fire safety officials worry about the proliferation of products contributing to growing fuel loads in homes. On the other, health and environmental activists worry about the effects of FR technologies. 

This tension is leading to a proliferation of sometimes divergent and contradictory regulatory efforts at the federal, state and international levels. 

To help you sort it out, Product Safety Letter on February 19 at 3pm EST brings you a one hour webinar. You will hear from three top-notch product safety experts who will help you get your bearings.

Cheryl Falvey is one of the presenters at this webinar.

"The Tide is High New Guidance on Sea-Level Rise," The Environmental Law Section

On December 5, 2024, the San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC) adopted the Regional Shoreline Adaptation Plan (RSAP). The RSAP is a region-wide plan for the San Francisco Bay shoreline that guides the creation of coordinated, locally planned sea level rise adaptation actions that work together to achieve a regional One Bay Vision. This includes BCDC’s guidelines for how local governments must meet the requirements of SB 272, a new State mandate that requires all local governments along the shoreline to prepare a Subregional Shoreline Adaptation Plan by 2034. Jon Welner will be the moderator and will be interviewing the Executive Director of the SF Bay Conservation and Development Commission (SF BCDC), which regulates all development in or near San Francisco Bay.
