Claigan Environmental Webinar – Changes in US Restricted Materials Compliance

Changes to Prop 65 warnings and five substance restricted under TSCA

OTTAWA, ON, Jan. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ – On February 3 2020, Claigan Environmental Inc. (www.claigan.com) will present a webinar on the significant changes to both California Proposition 65 and US TSCA. Under the proposed Prop 65 changes, the generic small form warnings will be replaced by warnings that include identification of at least one chemical. Under TSCA, in January 2021, the US EPA has banned five substances in articles. In both cases, the deadlines are in 2022 – leaving companies with very little time to prepare.

California Proposition 65 (Prop 65) is the most heavily enforced restricted materials legislation in the world, with over 300 prosecutions per month. Prosecutions under Prop 65 have been avoidable by providing simple generic warnings on products or packaging. Under the proposed amendments, companies will now have to identify specific chemicals in their generic warnings. In the first half of the webinar, Claigan will go into specific detail on the changes including practical outcomes.

Unlike the EU and California, the US, at a federal level, has had very few chemical restrictions in products. Under the new final rules published by the EPA in January 2021, five substances will now be banned in articles. In the second half of the webinar, Claigan will describe the restrictions, deadlines, common uses of the chemicals, and practical approaches to compliance, considering the short deadlines involved.

The main topics to be covered in this webinar are –

Prop 65

Current warning rules
Changes to short form warning rules
Identification of chemical substances
Timelines
Practical approaches to compliance

US TSCA Final Rules

5 Substances newly restricted
Scope and deadlines
Common uses for each for the chemicals
Practical approaches to compliance

Due to the interest in these topics, two (2) webinars will be held on February 3 to accommodate a larger audience.

Webinars – Changes in US Restricted Materials Requirements
Date: 3 February 2020
Time: 10am and 2pm EST
Duration: 1 hour plus Q&A
To Register: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/rt/2816298291875716879 or on Claigan Website at www.claigan.com/webinars

Con Edison Can ‘Connect’ Customers With Solar Energy And Savings

NEW YORK, Jan. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Con Edison is offering, free of charge, a device that can save upwards of $1,000 for a residential customer installing a new solar array.

The Smart ConnectDER, built by ConnectDER, Con Edison’s partner on the project,…

NEW YORK, Jan. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — Con Edison is offering, free of charge, a device that can save upwards of $1,000 for a residential customer installing a new solar array.

The Smart ConnectDER, built by ConnectDER, Con Edison’s partner on the project, allows the customer to avoid the cost of upgrading the circuit breaker panel. It also eliminates the need for excessive electrical boxes on the side of the home.

The Smart ConnectDER is an adapter that uses the electric meter socket as a point of interconnection for solar power. It fits on most electric meters and works for solar arrays up to 15 kilowatts – meaning nearly all residential solar projects.

In addition, on homes where the meter socket is on an exterior wall, the installer does not have to enter the home to connect the solar to the home wiring. That means less contact and potential for coronavirus exposure between the installer and homeowner.

«Providing ConnectDER technology is another step we are taking to make it convenient for customers to choose renewable energy,» said Alexandra Bykov, Con Edison’s project manager. «Con Edison and our customers are leading the transition to a clean energy future, ensuring that our region will remain safe and sustainable.»

«We’re pleased to work with Con Edison to deliver quicker and safer solar connections for Greater New York,» said Whit Fulton, the chief executive of ConnectDER. «We’re also generating information on how, when, and where solar on the local power grid will be producing energy, which will help Con Edison plan infrastructure investments and increase the adoption of clean power. Con Edison is stalwart in its commitment to get innovative, win-win solutions like ours to their customers.»

Con Edison provided 300 Smart ConnectDERs to customers during a successful pilot program in 2019.

Con Edison then sought and received permission from the New York State Public Service Commission to make ConnectDER technology available to new residential solar customers across New York City and Westchester County.

The New York State Energy Research and Development Authority chose the program for funding under its Future Grid Challenge, which encouraged companies to find ways to get more clean energy on the grid.

NYSERDA will pay for 2,400 units with Con Edison paying the installation costs for those devices. Con Edison will continue the program even after customers and their contractors install those 2,400 devices.

Smart ConnectDERs are simple and versatile. A solar contractor who wants to use a Smart ConnectDER for a customer’s interconnection would send Con Edison a photo of the meter to confirm that the meter can accommodate the device.

Using a Smart ConnectDER can reduce interconnection time by up to several hours.

Customers or installers with questions can send an e-mail to ConnectDer@coned.com.

Con Edison encourages its customers to consider whether solar energy is right for them. The company has helped more than 35,000 customers complete rooftop projects and connect them to the grid. Those panels have the capacity to produce more than 320 megawatts of power.

As part of its Clean Energy Commitment, the company wants to make it possible for customers to buy 100 percent clean electricity by 2040. Con Edison Inc. is the second largest solar producer in North America and seventh largest in the world.

About ConnectDER Inc.
ConnectDER‘s mission is to make clean distributed resources the default source of power for the 21st century. ConnectDER’s products are used by some of the largest electric power utilities and solar installers throughout the United States to simplify and accelerate the integration of distributed resources with the grid. For more information, please check out connectder.com.

About Con Edison
Con Edison is a subsidiary of Consolidated Edison, Inc. (NYSE: ED), one of the nation’s largest investor-owned energy companies, with approximately $13 billion in annual revenues and $60 billion in assets. The utility delivers electricity, natural gas and steam to 3.5 million customers in New York City and Westchester County, N.Y.

InventHelp Inventor Develops an Improved Car Seat Design (CBA-3843)

PITTSBURGH, Jan. 19, 2021 /PRNewswire/ — «My son has autism and down syndrome, and he can find a way out of every car seat we put him in. I wanted to create a way to keep him, and other children like him, safe and secure,» said an inventor from Laurens, S.C. «So, I created the WHODEENIE SEAT SYSTEM & ACCESSORIES.»

<a…

The invention fulfills the need for a child car seat with a pull-over restraint that would lock out of reach of the child, ensuring the youngster could not release it and was always properly restrained in the seat. It provides peace of mind and eliminates the need to turn around to check (while traveling) to see if children are safely buckled in their seats. This seat could save lives by allowing the safety harness to restrain the youngster in the event of an accident. It eliminates the need to continually pull to the roadside to re-seat and re-buckle the child. Additionally, this design could be especially appealing to parents or caregivers of children with special needs.

The original design was submitted to the National sales office of InventHelp. It is currently available for licensing or sale to manufacturers or marketers. For more information, write Dept. 19-CBA-3843, InventHelp, 217 Ninth Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15222, or call (412) 288-1300 ext. 1368.
