Bill Summary

Relative to novelty sparklers. Public Safety and Homeland Security.

AI Summary

This bill amends the definition of "fireworks" in Massachusetts law to exclude certain types of novelty sparklers and other small pyrotechnic devices, allowing their storage, possession, sale, and use throughout the state. The bill specifies that the regulation of these items must be consistent with the standards set forth in the National Fire Protection Association Code for Fireworks and Pyrotechnic Articles. The bill also provides several exceptions to the fireworks laws, such as for the sale of fireworks for out-of-state shipment, for supervised public displays, and for various industrial and ceremonial uses.
