Certain lead solder in products prohibitions delayment provision
SF 2446 delays the ban on lead solder in key fobs with internal circuit boards until January 1, 2028, instead of the original enforcement date. This directly affects manufacturers of such key fobs, allowing them to continue using lead solder in internal circuit boards during the delay period. The bill requires these manufacturers to submit six-month reports to the Pollution Control Agency detailing barriers to compliance, progress made, and an updated timeline for meeting the lead limit. The delay applies only to key fobs with lead solder in internal circuit boards, while other products must still comply with the existing lead (0.009%) and cadmium (0.0075%) limits.
