The bill amends Section 23-18.18-3 of the "Consumer PFAS Ban Act of 2024" to clarify the definition of "intentionally added PFAS." The new language specifies that intentionally added PFAS refers to substances that are deliberately added during the manufacturing of a covered product to perform a specific function. The bill also introduces a new definition section that outlines various terms related to the act.
The act aims to enhance consumer safety by regulating the use of perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in various consumer products. By clearly defining what constitutes intentionally added PFAS, the bill seeks to ensure that manufacturers are held accountable for the presence of these substances in their products. The act will take effect immediately upon passage.
