§ 108079 Pfas Product Registration Requirements

This law requires manufacturers of certain products to register with the state, pay a fee, and prove their products meet PFAS chemical restrictions.

Key Takeaways

  • •Manufacturers must register by July 1, 2029 and provide product names, descriptions, and a compliance statement.
  • •They must also submit technical documentation and test results that meet the department's published standards.
  • •The registration fee cannot be higher than the department's reasonable implementation costs.
  • •The department will publish approved testing methods and lab accreditations by January 1, 2029.
  • •Enforcement and compliance checks begin on July 1, 2030.

Example

A company that makes reusable food containers must register with the state, pay the required fee, and show that its containers do not contain restricted PFAS chemicals.

The company submits its product names, pays a fee that is not higher than the state's estimated cost of running the program, and provides test results proving the containers comply with the PFAS limits.

How to Calculate

Registration fee ≤ Department's reasonable costs

  1. The department determines the reasonable cost of running the registration program.
  2. The manufacturer calculates the fee it will charge.
  3. The fee must be set at a level that does not exceed the reasonable cost number from step 1.

A manufacturer estimates the department's reasonable cost to be $600 per product type.

Result: Since $450 ≤ $600, the fee complies with the rule.
