This bill establishes the second Thursday in October as "Children's Environmental Health Day." It amends RSA 4:13 by adding a new section, 4:13-ee, which mandates that the governor issue an annual proclamation to recognize this day. The bill encourages cities and towns to observe the day in a manner that raises awareness and educates the public about the significance of clean air, clean water, safe food, and safe consumer products.

The new legal language inserted into current law includes the establishment of the new section 4:13-ee, which outlines the responsibilities of the governor and the encouragement for local governments to participate in the observance of Children's Environmental Health Day. There are no deletions from current law noted in this bill. The act is set to take effect 60 days after its passage.
