Senate Bill 862, also known as House Bill 1266, amends certain provisions of the Tennessee Code Annotated related to criminal law. Specifically, it modifies the requirements for metals recycling facilities regarding the posting of notices for individuals selling materials to these facilities. The bill replaces the existing requirement that a notice be posted in a "conspicuous location" with a more specific mandate that the notice must be displayed at each public entrance to the facility, ensuring it is readily visible to all sellers.

The bill is set to take effect on July 1, 2025, emphasizing the importance of public awareness in the metals recycling process. This change aims to enhance transparency and compliance within the recycling industry, ultimately contributing to better regulatory practices.
