I contacted Muir Glen directly and asked whether or not their cans contained BPA. You can see their response below:
"Thank you for contacting Muir Glen about bisphenol-A or BPA.
Bisphenol-A is a component of protective coatings in metal food packaging, and provides an important food safety and quality function in canned foods. Scientific and governmental bodies worldwide have examined the science many times and have concluded that the weight of evidence supports the safety of BPA, including recent comprehensive assessments in Japan and in the European Union.

U.S. Food and Drug Administration announced another review of BPA. This
review in expected to take 18-24 months, and Health Canada and the World
Health Organization (WHO) will participate.
Most metal cans in the food industry utilize BPA in the can lining or can lid. Some of our products do, and many competitors' products do as well.

Muir Glen continues to believe BPA is safe. However, we know that some
of our consumers have wanted us to pursue alternatives. We have been
working with our can suppliers and can manufacturers to develop and test
alternative linings that do not use BPA for some time.
One alternative has proven safe and viable in our processing of tomatoes - and Muir Glen is in the midst of transitioning to cans with liners that do not use BPA. It is an approved non-epoxy alternative. Can coatings used by Muir Glen also comply fully with all applicable U.S. Food and Drug Administration requirements for safe use in food contact applications.
Your views are important to us. Again, thank you for contacting Muir Glen, and thank you for your support of our products.
