1 AN ACT concerning safety.
2 Be it enacted by the People of the State of Illinois,
3 represented in the General Assembly:
4 Section 1. Short title. This Act may be cited as the Clean
5 Lighting Act.
6 Section 5. Findings. The General Assembly finds that:
7 (1) Mercury is a persistent and toxic pollutant that
8 bioaccumulates in the environment and poses a serious
9 threat to humans, particularly young children, and
10 wildlife.
11 (2) Human exposure to mercury can result in nervous
12 system, kidney, and liver damage and impaired childhood
13 development.
14 (3) Removal of mercury and mercury-containing products
15 from the waste stream prior to combustion or disposal is
16 an effective way to reduce mercury pollution.
17 (4) All fluorescent lamps contain mercury and can
18 create an immediate public health and environmental hazard
19 when they accidentally break during installation, use,
20 transportation, storage, recycling, or disposal.
21 (5) Light-emitting diode (LED) replacements for
22 fluorescent lamps do not contain any mercury.
