Changes the law regarding catalytic converters

HB 1611 requires scrap metal dealers and secondhand property sellers to maintain detailed records for transactions involving detached catalytic converters. Specifically, they must document the seller's ID, transaction details, vehicle identification number (VIN), and weight/price for each converter sold, and store these records for 36 months. The bill prohibits off-site sales of catalytic converters (requiring fixed business locations) and bans altering converters for five business days after purchase. Dealers who knowingly buy stolen converters face fines up to $10,000 for repeat violations or license revocation. This law directly affects scrap metal dealers and scrap buyers, targeting the theft of catalytic converters by increasing accountability in their resale.
