The Burbank City Council recently decided to put the kibosh on the community toys left behind at Lincoln Park, saying the leave-behind items posed a potential safety risk.
The policy identifies four categories of items which might be considered for release: (1) items that pose a safety issue for return on-board a visiting vehicle, (2) items that negatively impact International Space Station utilization, return, or on-orbit stowage manifests, (3) items that permit a reduction in the duration of an extravehicular activity, and (4) items that are designed for jettison.
Many items that are classed as reusable are in practice difficult to clean – for example, small burs and other items can pose a challenge.
"Over time, repeated skin contact with contaminated items may pose a small risk to health," it added.
Toys that are meant for children ages 3 to 6 may contain small parts but must carry labels that indicate that the items could pose a safety hazard.
The equipment list provided as part of the initial filming request will be reviewed and items that pose a risk to the collections will be identified during the initial review.
The exploitation of natural resources, the pollution generated by factories and transport of goods, and the waste created by the consumption of short-lived low-cost items pose serious challenges to global sustainability.
Here's the real deal on those "sell-by," "use-by" and "best before" labels: None of them are regulated by the federal government, and few of them actually tell you when eating or drinking an item would pose a threat to your health.
Consider whether the item could pose a choking factor since babies tend to put everything in their mouths.
Dearborn Heights Police Chief Lee Gavin, who is named in Kazan's lawsuit, did not return a request for comment but told FOX 2 that the department requires individuals to remove hats and other head coverings for safety reasons, as they can "contain concealable items that could pose a threat or chance of injury to the cops or to themselves".
