Connecticut Fire Safety (Updated 7/7/2008)

Massachusetts: SB 2406 – This bill would empower specific government agencies to reduce the presence of toxic or hazardous substances in products manufactured for use by promoting safer alternatives to these priority substances. The state may develop recognition programs to promote the toxic or hazardous substances reduction achievements of industry and communities. The institute may establish fees, tuitions, or other financial charges for its safer alternatives programs. Organizations, individuals and the fire safety community have come together to work collectively to find a solution that works for firefighters, community leaders and others.
