  • On and after January 1, 2026, as part of the product phaseout timeline, banning the sale or distribution of cleaning products that are not medical floor maintenance products, cookware, dental floss, menstruation products, and ski wax that contain intentionally added PFAS chemicals;
  • On and after January 1, 2028, as part of the product phaseout timeline, repealing the disclosure requirement and banning the sale or distribution of medical floor maintenance products, textile articles, outdoor apparel for severe wet conditions, and food equipment intended primarily for use in commercial settings that contain intentionally added PFAS chemicals; and
  • On and after January 1, 2026, prohibiting a person from installing artificial turf that contains intentionally added PFAS chemicals on any portion of property in the state.
