An Act protecting wastewater and sewerage systems through the labeling of non-flushable wipes

This bill requires manufacturers and retailers in Massachusetts to clearly label certain disposable wipes with a "Do Not Flush" warning to protect wastewater and sewer systems. The law defines covered products as baby wipes and other bathroom cleaning items made with petrochemical fibers that are likely to be flushed down a toilet. Starting July 1, 2025, these products must display a high-contrast symbol and text on the front of the package, with the warning taking up at least 2% of the main display area. The legislation aims to prevent plumbing damage by ensuring consumers are visibly informed that these specific wipes should not be disposed of in toilets.
