Bill > SB173

This bill addresses multiple environmental and consumer protection provisions across several domains. It requires food delivery service platforms to provide users the option to request disposable foodware accessories and standard condiments, preventing automatic inclusion with food orders. Beginning January 1, 2026, the bill prohibits manufacturers from selling various products containing intentionally added perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), including carpets, cosmetics, juvenile products, and indoor furnishings. Manufacturers of cookware containing PFAS must label their products with detailed information about these substances. The bill also establishes heat island mitigation requirements for redevelopment agencies, mandating they set aside 1% of allocated revenue to enhance landscaping and provide shade in neighborhoods. Additionally, the legislation requires the Division of Emergency Management to apply for grants to reduce heat island effects, mandates that emergency management plans include heat mitigation strategies, and establishes new food establishment and food-contact surface sanitation requirements. The bill further requires the State Board of Cosmetology to collect and test random samples of hair products in counties with populations over 700,000 to check for formaldehyde and known carcinogens, and provides funding for developing scientific testing methods. Violators of certain provisions may be subject to civil penalties up to $1,000 per violation.
