AI Summary

This bill aims to exclude novelty sparklers from the definition of prohibited fireworks in Massachusetts. Specifically, it proposes to amend the state's fireworks law to categorize wood stick or wire sparklers of not more than 100 grams of pyrotechnic mixture, as well as other hand-held or ground-based sparkling devices that are non-explosive and non-aerial and contain 75 grams or less of pyrotechnic composition per tube (or 500 grams or less total), as permissible items that can be sold and used at all times, rather than being considered prohibited fireworks.
