142142 2 Sec. 52.15. Intentionally added PFAS chemicals; PFAS
143143 3 manufacturers.
144144 4 (a) The General Assembly finds:
145145 5 (1) Contamination of the soil and water in the State
146146 6 by PFAS chemicals poses a significant threat to the
147147 7 State's environment and its residents.
148148 8 (2) A growing body of scientific research has found
149149 9 that exposure to PFAS chemicals may lead to serious and
150150 10 harmful health effects.
151151 11 (3) The full extent of the contamination of the soil
152152 12 and water in the State by PFAS is not currently known and
153153 13 additional expenditures will be required to identify and
154154 14 remediate existing PFAS contamination.
155155 15 (4) PFAS chemicals continue to be used in products
156156 16 across a variety of industries and for many different
157157 17 purposes.
158158 18 (5) PFAS chemicals are not necessary in many products
159159 19 and could be replaced with less harmful chemicals and
160160 20 technologies.
161161 21 (6) If the widespread sale and distribution of
162162 22 products that contain intentionally added PFAS chemicals
163163 23 continues in the State:
164164 24 (A) there is a larger risk of PFAS chemicals
165165 25 migrating into the natural environment;

175175 SB0088 - 5 - LRB103 04643 CPF 50348 b
176176 1 (B) residents of the State will likely suffer
177177 2 adverse health effects from exposure to PFAS chemicals;
178178 3 and
179179 4 (C) the State and units of local government will
180180 5 be burdened with the testing, monitoring, and cleanup
181181 6 costs necessary to protect residents from exposure to PFAS
182182 7 chemicals.
183183 8 (7) The General Assembly, therefore, declares that it
184184 9 is imperative for the health and safety of the State's
185185 10 residents to phase out, through regulation, the sale and
186186 11 distribution of certain product categories in the State
187187 12 that contain intentionally added PFAS chemicals.
