Steve Goldberg received the Charles E. Allderdice Jr. Award during the opening session of the annual meeting of the Household and Commercial Products Association. According to HCPA President and CEO Steve Caldeira, Goldberg was instrumental in the reauthorizaton of the Pesticide Registration Improvement Act of 2018. Goldberg, who retired in June from BASF Corp., noted that HCPA works with a variety of stakeholders to achieve goals that benefit all of society.
"In this day and age of contention, it is great to see an association work with all of its stakeholders," observed Goldberg.
in receiving the Chairman's Outstanding Service Award, Nancy Levenson, who recently retired from Ecolab, also noted that HCPA members worked together to help shape California's ingredient disclosure bill and led the way in PRIA reauthorization.
