Maine LD987 clarifies exemptions from PFAS regulations for various motor vehicles and equipment.

Maine LD987 amends the law to clarify exemptions from the notification requirement for products containing perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). The bill exempts motor vehicles, off-highway vehicles, specialty motor vehicles, farm equipment, and other specified equipment from the notification requirement. However, textile articles and refrigerants included in or as a component part of these products are not exempt. This clarification aims to streamline compliance and enforcement of PFAS regulations in Maine.
