The product involved in the case is wine glasses made of polycarbonate. Pursuant to the specifications of the settlement, the products can be placed for sale, intended or offered for sale on the California market when the concentration of BPA in the products is less than 1,000ppm in accordance with the method set forth in ATS 367 Rev.0 or a legible and reasonable warning label is provided.
