CALIFORNIA AIR RESOURCE BOARD
(CARB) LABEL
Your Regal boat may have a star shaped label affi xed to
the bow port hullside. It is located at the front of the state
registration numbers. This label is part of the California
Air Resource Board (Carb) SD/I rule. If your boat is op-
erated in the state of California and/or bordering waters,
this label MUST remain intact. The label shows that the
engine installed as original equipment meets a currently
approved California state regulatory emission level. See
the example below which shows the current California
ultra low 3 star label.
Proposition 65 relates to the state of California and is an
additional requirement added to their Safe Drinking &
Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986. Prop 65 basically sum-
marized states that: “No person in the course of doing
business shall knowingly discharge or release a chemical
known to the state to cause cancer or reproductive toxic-
ity into water or onto land where such chemical passes
or probably will pass into any source of drinking water
....” and it goes on to say “ no person in the course of
doing business shall knowingly and intentionally expose
any individual to a chemical known to the state to cause
cancer or reproductive toxicity without fi rst giving clear
and reasonable warning to such individual .....”
