Senate Bill 862, sponsored by Stevens, amends Tennessee Code Annotated regarding regulations for metals recycling facilities. The bill specifically modifies the requirement for these facilities to post notices for individuals selling materials. The existing language that stated "A metals recycling facility shall post in a conspicuous location a notice that is readily visible to all persons selling materials to the facility" is replaced with a more specific directive that mandates the notice be posted "at each public entrance to the facility."
This change aims to enhance visibility and ensure that all individuals entering the facility are aware of the relevant information before selling materials. The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, emphasizing the importance of public welfare in its implementation.
