This episode of On the Line follows up on an ongoing story for the finishing community and the topic of a recent interview with Bryan Leiker, executive director for the Metal Finishers Association of California (MFACA) – and that is the latest regulatory discussion over a proposed ban of hexavalent chromium use for plating and anodizing operations in the state.
On January 27 the California Air Resources Board (CARB) conducted a public hearing where members of the finishing community had the opportunity to voice their concerns over the proposed ban. Leiker sits down with Products Finishing editor Scott Francis to offer a recap of the event and next steps in this important industry discussion.
