AB 972 (Calderon) became effective October 13, 2001. This bill changed the Preliminary Endangerment Assessment (PEA) public review and approval process. These changes are not yet reflected on this website. Please contact the SFPD representative assigned to your county, or the DTSC, for more information on the effects of AB 972. This website is being updated to reflect the changes made by AB 972 and AB 1367 (Wiggins). AB 1367 takes effect on January 1, 2002.
A PEA is necessary only when required by the Department of Toxic Substances Control (DTSC). The PEA consists of a sampling and screening risk assessment to determine whether the hazardous materials present at a site pose a threat to children's health.
