Bill > HB1012

This bill aims to amend Arkansas law concerning scrap metal dealers and requires buyers of used catalytic converters to maintain records. It defines a "catalytic converter" as an exhaust emission control device that reduces toxic gases and pollutants from internal combustion engines. The bill mandates that scrap metal dealers take detailed photographs of sellers and the scrap metal purchased, including catalytic converters. It also establishes new requirements for buyers of used catalytic converters, such as maintaining electronic records of purchases, registering with the county sheriff, and facing civil and criminal penalties for failure to comply with the reporting requirements.
