7-Section 5. The Environmental Protection Act is amended by
8-adding Section 21.8 as follows:
3+1 AN ACT concerning safety.

5+3 represented in the General Assembly:
6+4 Section 5. The Environmental Protection Act is amended by
7+5 adding Section 21.8 as follows:
8+6 (415 ILCS 5/21.8 new)
9+7 Sec. 21.8. Fluorescent lamp bans.
10+8 (a) The General Assembly finds that:
11+9 (1) Mercury is a persistent and toxic pollutant that
12+10 bioaccumulates in the environment and poses a serious
13+11 threat to humans, particularly young children, and
14+12 wildlife.
15+13 (2) Human exposure to mercury can result in nervous
16+14 system, kidney, and liver damage and impaired childhood
17+15 development.
18+16 (3) Removal of mercury and mercury-containing products
19+17 from the waste stream prior to combustion or disposal is
20+18 an effective way to reduce mercury pollution.
21+19 (4) All fluorescent lamps contain mercury and can
22+20 create an immediate public health and environmental hazard
23+21 when they accidentally break during installation, use,
24+22 transportation, storage, recycling, or disposal.
25+23 (5) Light-emitting diode (LED) replacements for

34+1 fluorescent lamps do not contain any mercury.
35+2 (b) In this Section:
36+3 "Compact fluorescent lamp" means a compact low-pressure,
37+4 mercury-containing, electric-discharge light source in which a
38+5 fluorescent coating transforms some of the ultraviolet energy
39+6 generated by the mercury discharge into visible light, and
40+7 includes all of the following characteristics:
41+8 (1) One base (end cap) of any type, including, but not
42+9 limited to, screw, bayonet, 2 pins, and 4 pins.
43+10 (2) Integrally ballasted or non-integrally ballasted.
44+11 (3) Light emission between a correlated color
45+12 temperature of 1700K and 24000K and a Delta u, v of +0.024
46+13 and -0.024 in the International Commission on Illumination
47+14 (CIE) Uniform Color Space (CAM02-UCS).
48+15 (4) All tube diameters and all tube lengths.
49+16 (5) All lamp sizes and shapes for directional and
50+17 nondirectional installations, including, but not limited
51+18 to, PL, spiral, twin tube, triple twin, 2D, U-bend, and
52+19 circular.
53+20 "Linear fluorescent lamp" means a low-pressure,
54+21 mercury-containing, electric-discharge light source in which a
55+22 fluorescent coating transforms some of the ultraviolet energy
56+23 generated by the mercury discharge into visible light, and
57+24 includes all of the following characteristics:
58+25 (1) Two bases (end caps) of any type, including, but

71+2 (2) Light emission between a correlated color
72+3 temperature of 1700K and 24000K and a Delta u, v of +0.024
73+4 and -0.024 in the International Commission on Illumination
74+5 (CIE) Uniform Color Space (CAM02-UCS).
75+6 (3) All tube diameters, including, but not limited to,
76+7 T5, T8, T10, and T12.
77+8 (4) All tube lengths from 0.5 to 8.0 feet, inclusive.
78+9 (5) All lamp shapes, including, but not limited to,
79+10 linear, U-bend, and circular.
80+11 "Sunlamp product" has the meaning given in 21 CFR
81+12 1040.20(b)(9).
82+13 (c) Beginning January 1, 2026, no person shall sell, offer
83+14 to sell, or distribute in the State as a new manufactured
84+15 product a screw-base or bayonet-base type compact fluorescent
85+16 lamp.
86+17 (d) beginning January 1, 2027, no person shall sell, offer
87+18 to sell, or distribute in the State as a new manufactured
88+19 product a pin-base type compact fluorescent lamp or a linear
89+20 fluorescent lamp.
