June 2 – US: Vermont Enacts Law Banning Bisphenol A

From the Bureau Veritas Group:

The Governor of Vermont has signed a law banning Bisphenol A (BPA) from certain products. Beginning on July 1, 2012, the law bans reusable food or beverage containers composed of BPA such as baby bottles, spill-proof cups, thermoses, and sports bottles. It also bans infant formula or baby food stored in plastic containers or jars containing BPA as of July 1, 2012 and then extends the ban to infant formula or baby food stored in cans containing BPA as of July 1, 2014. The law also prohibits using specified carcinogens or reproductive toxins as alternatives to BPA, and requires use of the least toxic alternatives.
