 A chemical used in tire manufacture has been causing controversy since 2020.   The United States Tire Manufacturers Association (USTMA) is investigating a series of potential alternatives, following new legislation from California that requires any company selling tires in California to either declare that they do not contain 6PPD, or demonstrate that they are seriously seeking alternatives.  As of now, no major fines have been imposed on tire manufacturers specifically for 6PPD use, but there is growing regulatory scrutiny, particularly in regions like the Pacific Northwest where environmental harm has been documented.
