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

1 (B) residents of the State will likely suffer
2 adverse health effects from exposure to PFAS chemicals;
3 and
4 (C) the State and units of local government will
5 be burdened with the testing, monitoring, and cleanup
6 costs necessary to protect residents from exposure to PFAS
7 chemicals.
8 (7) The General Assembly, therefore, declares that it
9 is imperative for the health and safety of the State's
10 residents to phase out, through regulation, the sale and
11 distribution of certain product categories in the State
12 that contain intentionally added PFAS chemicals.
