Bill > HR4602

This bill, the Wastewater Infrastructure Pollution Prevention and Environmental Safety Act (WIPPES Act), directs the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) to issue regulations requiring certain disposable wipe products, such as baby wipes, disinfecting wipes, and personal care wipes, to have a clear "Do Not Flush" label and symbol on their packaging. The regulations aim to prevent these products from being flushed down toilets, which can damage sewer and wastewater infrastructure. The bill also requires the FTC to provide guidance for covered entities to conduct public outreach campaigns to educate consumers about the proper disposal of these products.
