(a)The manufacturer of any cosmetic product subject to regulation by the federal Food and Drug Administration that is sold in this state shall, on a schedule and in electronic or other format, as determined by the division, provide the division with a complete and accurate list of its cosmetic products that, as of the date of submission, are sold in the state and that contain any ingredient that is a chemical identified as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity, including any chemical that meets either of the following conditions:

(2)A

chemical identified by the phrase “and other ingredients” and determined to be a trade secret pursuant to the procedure established in Part 20 and Section 720.8 of Part 720 of Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Any ingredient identified pursuant to this paragraph shall be considered to be a trade secret and shall be treated by the division in a manner consistent with the requirements of Part 20 and Part 720 of Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations. Any ingredients considered to be a trade secret shall not be subject to the California Public Records Act (Division 10 (commencing with Section 7920.000) of Title 1 of the Government Code) for the purposes of this section.

(b)Any information submitted pursuant to subdivision (a) shall identify each chemical both by name and Chemical Abstract Service number and shall specify the

product or products in which the chemical is contained.

(c)If an ingredient identified pursuant to this section

subsequently is removed from the product in which it was contained, is removed from the list of chemicals known to cause cancer or reproductive toxicity published under Section 25249.8, or is no longer a chemical identified as causing cancer or reproductive toxicity by an authoritative body, the manufacturer of the product containing the ingredient shall submit the new information to the division. Upon receipt of new information, the division, after verifying the accuracy of that information, shall revise the manufacturer’s information on record with the division to reflect the new information. The manufacturer shall not be under obligation to submit subsequent information on the presence of the ingredient in the product unless subsequent changes require submittal of the information.

(d)This section shall not apply to any

manufacturer of cosmetic products with annual aggregate sales of cosmetic products, both within and outside of California, of less than one million dollars ($1,000,000), based on the manufacturer’s most recent tax year filing.

(e)On or before December 31, 2013, the State Department of Public Health shall develop and make operational a consumer-friendly, public internet website that creates a database of the information collected pursuant to this section. The database shall be searchable to accommodate a wide range of users, including users with limited technical and scientific literacy. Data shall be presented in an educational manner with, among other things, hypertext links that explain the meanings of technical terms, including, but not limited to, “carcinogenic” and “reproductive toxicity.” The internet website shall be designed

to be easily navigable and to enable users to compare and contrast products and reportable ingredients. The internet website shall include hypertext links to other educational and informational internet websites to enhance consumer understanding.
