  (b) No person shall:

(1) sell;

(2) supply;

(3) offer for sale; or

(4) manufacture for sale;

in Indiana any antiperspirant or deodorant that contains any compound that has been identified by the CARB in Title 17, California Code of Regulations, Division 3, Chapter 1, Subchapter 7, Section 93000* as a toxic air contaminant.

  (c) Products that are diluted prior to use shall satisfy the following requirements:

(1) For consumer products for which the label, packaging, or accompanying literature specifically states that the product should be diluted with water or non-VOC solvent prior to use, the VOC content limits specified in subsection (a) shall apply to the product only after the minimum recommended dilution has taken place. For purposes of this rule, minimum recommended dilution shall not include recommendations for incidental use of a concentrated product to deal with limited special applications such as hard-to-remove soils or stains.

(2) For consumer products for which the label, packaging, or accompanying literature states that the product should be diluted with any VOC solvent prior to use, the limits specified in subsection (a) shall apply to the product only after the maximum recommended dilution has taken place.

  (d) The following provisions apply to the sell-through of products:

(1) Notwithstanding the provisions of subsections (a) and (g), a consumer product manufactured prior to the effective date of this rule, June 1, 2011, may be sold, supplied, or offered for sale after the effective date of this rule, June 1, 2011.
