MINOR

The bill was amended to move from the Environmental Conservation Committee to the Codes Committee for further review. The most significant substantive change is the effective date: the ban on PFAS-containing anti-fogging products is now delayed until 180 days after the bill becomes law, rather than taking effect immediately.

Scope change

The bill's scope regarding the ban on PFAS sprays and wipes remains the same, but the timeline for enforcement has been extended.

TIMELINE

The effective date of the ban was changed from 'immediately' to 'one hundred eightieth day after it shall have become a law', providing a longer grace period for compliance.

PROCEDURE

The bill's procedural status was updated to reflect that it was reported from the Environmental Conservation Committee and referred to the Committee on Codes.
