HB 1472: Chemical action plans

Concerning using chemical action plans to require safer chemicals in Washington.

Summary

  • Directs the Department of Ecology (Ecology) to begin conducting up to four chemical action plans (CAPs) every two years on chemicals that harm humans, plants, or wildlife and that studies have found to be present in humans, the human environment, or the natural environment, or that are listed as criteria water pollutants that affect human health under the federal Clean Water Act.
  • Authorizes Ecology to require that manufacturers provide certain chemical use information to support CAP development, and to require manufacturers to assess alternatives to using chemicals, if recommended in a CAP.
  • Requires the state to preferentially purchase products and products in packaging that contain no persistent, bioaccumulative, and toxic chemicals, and other chemicals as recommended by Ecology in a CAP, or products that contain lower amounts of targeted chemicals than comparable products.
