TITLE OF BILL:

An act to amend the environmental conservation law, in relation to the
reduction of mercury in mercury-added lamps

PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:

To reduce the health and environmental risks posed by mercury-added
lamps.

SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS:

Section 1 of the bill amends section 27-2101 of the environmental
conservation law by adding new subdivisions 30, 31, 32, 33, and 34
defining terms used in the bill.

Section 2 of the bill amends section 27-2107 of the environmental
conservation law by adding new subdivisions 11 and 12. Subdivision 11
prohibits producers of mercury-added lamps from selling, offering for
sale, or distributing such lamps that fail to meet mercury content
standards set by the department of environmental conservation, and to
set forth the maximum permissible mercury content for certain
mercury-added lamps. Subdivision 12 provides for exceptions for
certain special purpose lamps.

Section 3 of the bill amends section 27-2111 of the environmental
conservation law to authorize the department to promulgate and enforce
regulations providing for mercury content standards not inconsistent
with section 27-2107.

Sections 4 and 5 of the bill amend section 71-2724 of the
environmental conservation law by amending subdivision 1 and adding a
new subdivision 2-a to provide for penalties for violations of
subdivision 11 of section 27-2107.

Section 6 of the bill sets forth the effective date.

JUSTIFICATION:

Many lighting products, including compact fluorescent lamps and others
that offer environmental benefits like longer life and greater energy
efficiency, also pose a risk to the people's health and to the
environment in that they contain mercury, a hazardous material, added
during the manufacturing process. When a mercury added lamp breaks
during normal use or when it is discarded, it may release mercury.
This legislation would minimize the amount of mercury present in lamps
sold in New York The European Union, California, and Maine have also
adopted laws that set maximum mercury content limits for many types of
lamps. The National Electrical Manufacturers Association (NEMA) has
also recommended mercury content limits for mercury-added lamps, and
many of its member organizations have voluntarily complied.

PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:

2009-10: S.7966-A (Thompson)/A.10100-C (Kavanaugh)

FISCAL IMPACT ON THE STATE:

Minimal.

LOCAL FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:

None.

EFFECTIVE DATE:

This act shall take effect immediately.
