CALIFORNIA CHROME MAY BE GOING AWAY

TAKE ACTION TODAY to PREVENT a BAN on Hex Chrome

MORE JOBS LOST IN CALIFORNIA? ESTIMATED 100,000 JOBS FOR COMBINED INDUSTRY!

California Air Resources Board [CARB] is planning to phase out Decorative Hex Chrome by 2023. California metal finishers will no longer be able to provide this service.

A BAN IS EXTREME OVERKILL

FACT: Decorative and Functional (HARD) Chrome AND Chromic Acid Anodize Metal Finishing is less than 1% of total Chrome VI Emissions for the entire State of California.

A BAN WILL BE STATE-WIDE

If you are a classic automotive enthusiast who restores cars as a hobby or profession, you will have to find a Decorative Chrome Shop outside of the State. ALL PRODUCTS THAT UTILIZE HEX CHROME will be affected including machine parts, fasteners, industrial machinery, aircraft, aerospace, architectural, medical devices, fixtures, marine equipment, electric cars and bicycles! The list is too long for this flyer!

CONTACT CARB TODAY

Contact CARB and let them know how you feel about the proposed BAN. Save your business, save your hobby, SAVE JOBS and families from leaving the State. CARB is open for comments and concerns.

Tell your story… how & why this impacts you in writing so that CARB Staff can share your concerns with the CARB Board!

Subject: Hexavalent Chromium Airborne Toxic Control Measure (ATCM) for Chrome Plating and Chromic Acid Anodizing Operations

Contact others and share the news. Our Government is supposed to work for us, and they need to hear from the taxpayers of this State on this critical issue!

Here’s video referencing the problem buildings. The one in Las Vegas mentioned later in the video is the one I’d heard of originally. This other one in London is similarly brutal. Or was.

Enjoy.

"sounds like an opportunity to setup shop doing this in Reno so that these shops can outsource their needs to a somewhat local company."

My thought exactly. This is just an opportunity to make some profit from California's self-inflicted demise.
