This bill places limitations on transactions involving the sale of catalytic converters to junk dealers, junk yard owners or operators, or scrap metal processors or scrap metal processing facilities. It requires these businesses to record detailed information about the seller and the catalytic converter, including the transaction date, seller's information, vehicle used to transport the converter, and a photograph or video of the seller and converter. The bill also restricts how these businesses can pay for catalytic converters and requires them to submit monthly reports on their transactions to the state police. The bill aims to address the problem of catalytic converter theft by creating more transparency and oversight in these types of transactions.
