30. Cal RoHS bans Lead and many other substances from

Cal RoHS bans Lead and many other substances from consumer electronics and many other classes of products.
http://www.dtsc.ca.gov/HazardousWaste/RoHS.cfm

Health and Safety Code sections 25214.9-25214.10.2

Technically compliance is only required in California. But for most consumer electronics it doesn't make sense to build and distribute separate versions, one for CA and one for the rest of North America.
