Notice of Proposed Changes to Made in California Regulations

 

The Made in California Program was enacted in 2013 and established in Government Code section 12098.10 and 12098.11. On 07/10/2023, AB 127 amended statutes associated with Made in California.

The Made in California Program is designed to develop and promote the Made in California label, to encourage consumer product awareness, and to foster purchases of high-quality products in this state. The Program is administered by the California Office of the Small Business Advocate within the Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development. The Program supports California-based manufacturers that meet the eligibility requirements across California’s diverse range of manufacturing categories.

The existing regulations provide a process for applicants to file an application for the Made in California Program. Specifically, the statue provides information on the application and certification process, terms used in the Made in California Program guidelines, review and renewal process, rules regarding the Licensing Agreement and Label usage, and updated Fee information.

The proposed amendments provide further clarity to Applicants on the application and certification process.

Why is this here?

Government Code section 11343 (as amended by Statutes 2012, chapter 295 (SB 1099)) requires an agency to post regulations approved by OAL and filed with the Secretary of State on that agency’s website in an easily marked and identifiable location. The regulations must be posted within 15 days of OAL filing a state agency’s regulation with the Secretary of State.  This information must be kept on the agency’s website for at least six months.
