Modifies provisions relating to catalytic converters

HB 418 modifies Missouri law to regulate the sale and handling of detached catalytic converters. It requires scrap metal dealers and recyclers to maintain detailed records for each transaction involving detached catalytic converters, including proof the seller is a legitimate auto repair shop or has lawful acquisition. Dealers must document the vehicle make, model, year, and VIN from which the converter was removed, along with the seller's identification and transaction details. These records must be kept for four years and submitted quarterly to the Missouri Department of Revenue. The bill directly affects scrap metal dealers, recyclers, and auto repair shops handling catalytic converters.
