A lawsuit filed on behalf of the Air Resources Board against the Conair Corporation for selling 56,299 units of non-complying hair mousse products has been settled for a civil penalty of $225,000. From 1995 through and including 2000, Conair sold, supplied, offered for sale or manufactured for sale in California non-complying containers of Rusk Blofoam, New Image Thermal Active Root Lift and Beyond the Zone Volume Booster. In March of 2003, a complaint was filed by the Attorney General's Office, which will now be dismissed as a result of the negotiated settlement.
