Modifies provisions governing fireworks
HB 1466 updates Missouri's fireworks laws by repealing old sections and enacting new rules that clarify definitions and safety requirements for consumer and display fireworks. The bill allows county commissions to issue burn bans during severe droughts or natural disasters, which would prohibit the use of missiles and skyrockets but not other consumer fireworks. It also establishes specific fireworks seasons for sales, defines roles for licensed operators and manufacturers, and sets penalties for violating regulations. These changes aim to standardize how fireworks are sold, used, and regulated across the state while maintaining flexibility for local authorities to enforce safety measures.
