Massachusetts S195 mandates the Department of Environmental Protection to publish lists of high priority and safer alternative chemicals in children's products. Manufacturers must remove or substitute high priority chemicals in children's products within three years. Exemptions and extensions are possible under certain conditions. The bill also prohibits the sale of children's products containing intentionally added perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Manufacturers must notify the department of chemical use and submit hazard assessments.
