An Act providing for restrictions on the sale and application of high-PAH sealants; establishing the Safer Sealant Fund; imposing duties on the Department of Environmental Protection; authorizing certain municipal ordinances; and imposing penalties.
HB 1089 restricts the sale and application of sealants containing high levels of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), harmful chemicals linked to health and environmental risks, primarily affecting manufacturers, contractors, and businesses selling these products. It establishes a Safer Sealant Fund to support the development of safer alternatives, requires the Department of Environmental Protection to enforce compliance, and allows municipalities to adopt stricter local rules. Violations of the restrictions incur penalties, with the bill aiming to reduce exposure to PAHs through regulatory and financial mechanisms.
