This bill mandates that manufacturers of firefighting personal protective equipment (PPE) containing perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) provide written notice to purchasers at the time of sale. The notice must inform the purchaser that the equipment contains PFAS, explain the reason for its inclusion, and specify the types of PFAS present by both chemical and abbreviated names. This requirement will take effect one year after the bill's enactment. Additionally, both the manufacturer and the purchaser are required to retain a copy of this notice for at least three years from the date of purchase.

The bill also establishes that failure to comply with these notice requirements constitutes an unlawful practice under New Jersey's Consumer Fraud Act, which carries penalties including monetary fines, cease and desist orders, and potential punitive damages. The Division of Consumer Affairs will have the authority to request copies of the written notices and associated sales documentation from manufacturers or purchasers within 60 days of such a request.
