We are party to various government and private environmental actions associated with past manufacturing facilities and former waste disposal sites. The condensed balance sheets included reserves for future environmental expenditures to investigate and remediate known sites as follows:

Long-term reserveOther noncurrent liabilities128.5 126.3 125.2 
Total reserve$158.5 $156.3 $155.2 
Environmental provisions charged to income, which are included in cost of goods sold, were $5.7 million and $4.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively, and $10.9 million and $9.8 million for the six months ended June 30, 2026 and 2025, respectively.
Environmental exposures are difficult to assess for numerous reasons, including the identification of new sites, developments at sites resulting from investigatory studies, advances in technology, changes in environmental laws and regulations and their application, changes in regulatory authorities, the scarcity of reliable data pertaining to identified sites, the difficulty in assessing the involvement and financial capability of other Potentially Responsible Parties (PRPs), our ability to obtain contributions from other parties and the lengthy time periods over which site remediation occurs. It is possible that some of these matters (the outcomes of which are subject to various uncertainties) may be resolved unfavorably to us, which could materially adversely affect our financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
