Bill Summary

AN ACT to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to the definition of coal tar and its use in pavement products

AI Summary

This bill amends the Environmental Conservation Law to revise the definition of "coal tar" - a viscous substance obtained from the distillation of coal. The bill expands the definition to include additional types of coal tar, and lowers the threshold for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) content from 10,000 milligrams per kilogram to 1,000 milligrams per kilogram. This change in the definition could impact the use of coal tar in pavement products.
