H4781

South Carolina H4781 regulates the manufacture, sale, transport, use, and display of pyrotechnics, including permits and safety requirements.

South Carolina H4781 amends the state code to regulate the manufacture, sale, transport, use, and display of pyrotechnics. It prohibits the use of pyrotechnics unless a permit is obtained from a county or city council. For indoor use at concerts or public exhibitions, a permit is only issued if the local fire marshal or State Fire Marshal certifies safety conditions. The bill also mandates insurance coverage of at least $500,000 for display operators. It prohibits selling pyrotechnics to individuals under 16 and defines specific pyrotechnic items.
