Lead Laws and Regulations

​California laws, also referred to as "statutes", are enacted by the State legislature, through passage of Assembly or Senate bills.
California regulations, also referred to as "standards", are written and filed, by one or more State programs, in response to a law/statute. Regulations/Standards serve to implement the mandates of a law/statute. In other words, regulations/standards establish the detailed requirements for doing what the law/statute requires.
