Monoma County, Oregon's most populous county, passed a BPA ban.

  • 2012-01-05

The Multnomah County Health Department in Oregon recently passed a unanimous vote to ban the sale of baby bottles, cups, and reusable beverage containers containing bisphenol A (BPA) throughout the county. The policy, supported by Multnomah County Board President Jeff Cogen, will officially take effect in the summer of 2012.

The American Chemistry Council (ACC) had previously proposed to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) that manufacturers ban the use of BPA in reusable beverage containers for infants and young children. Additionally, the FDA responded to Monoma County's policy by stating that the use of BPA in food and beverage containers may pose minor health risks.

On October 27, Monoma County held a hearing in support of the BPA ban. The supporting evidence was provided by organizations such as the Oregon Nurses Association, labor agencies, environmental election groups, and environmental task forces, but did not include representatives from the ACC or other industries who participated in the hearing.

This policy was reportedly proposed after Oregon failed to pass a BPA ban. Monoma County, which includes the city of Portland, is the most populous county in Oregon. Previously, California and Washington had passed laws restricting the use of BPA in baby and children's products; currently, only Oregon on the West Coast has not passed state legislation restricting the use of BPA.
