Lead Acid Battery Disposal Sunset Amendments
HB 67 removes the lead acid battery disposal regulations from Utah's sunset schedule, preventing them from automatically expiring on July 1, 2026. This ensures existing rules for handling and disposing of lead acid batteries (affecting auto shops, recyclers, and waste management entities) remain in effect indefinitely. The bill makes no new policy changes but maintains current requirements through technical amendments to the Utah Code. No additional costs or new provisions are introduced.
