MODERATE
The bill was finalized as an Enrolled version, incorporating several substantive changes to the definitions of products and the scope of the ban. The most significant change is the removal of 'cookware' from the list of banned products, meaning pots and pans are no longer restricted. Additionally, the definition of 'cosmetics' was updated to align with modern product descriptions, and the definition of 'juvenile products' was streamlined to consolidate the list of included items into a single paragraph.
Scope change
The scope of the ban was narrowed by removing cookware from the list of prohibited items, while the definition of cosmetics was broadened to include components used in cosmetic products.
REQUIREMENT
Removed 'cookware' (pots, pans, skillets, etc.) from the list of products banned for sale in the state starting in 2032.
DEFINITION
Updated the definition of 'cosmetics' to clarify that it includes products intended to be components of other cosmetic articles.
Reorganized the definition of 'juvenile products' to combine the list of included items and exclusions into a single, more concise paragraph.
Refined the definition of 'intentionally added PFAS' to clarify that it does not include PFAS present due to contaminated water if the manufacturer took no action to cause the contamination.
