Under existing law, the Alabama Lead Ban Act defines the term "lead-free" as not more than .2 percent of lead with respect to solder and flux and not more than eight percent of lead with respect to pipes, fittings, joints, and liners. This bill would revise what constitutes "lead-free." This bill would require city and county plumbing codes to conform to the revision. This bill would provide exceptions from lead-free requirements for certain materials and applications. This bill would also make nonsubstantive, technical revisions to update the existing code language to current style.
