Overview
This bill prohibits the sale, manufacture, and distribution of certain apparel and diaper products containing intentionally added perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). It defines ‘apparel’ broadly to include items like clothing, diapers, and swimwear. The bill updates existing state law to specifically address PFAS in these products and establishes a process for the Department of Environmental Protection and the Division of Consumer Affairs to create implementing rules and regulations. It also clarifies that certain trace amounts of PFAS are not subject to the ban.
