Fireworks - As introduced, extends from 10 to 14 days following the date of last publication in a newspaper of a notice from the state fire marshal about the seizure of and intent to destroy contraband fireworks, the period during which an owner may claim the fireworks and after which, if no such ownership claim is made, the state fire marshal may destroy the fireworks. - Amends TCA Title 68, Chapter 104.

This bill (SB 1334) amends Tennessee law to extend the time owners have to claim seized fireworks from 10 to 14 days after the state fire marshal publishes a notice of seizure. It directly affects owners of fireworks that have been seized by authorities, giving them four additional days to formally claim their property before the state may destroy it. The key change modifies Tennessee Code Annotated § 68-104-115(b)(2) to specify the 14-day period. The amendment takes effect July 1, 2025, and does not alter the destruction process itself - only the claim window.
