AN ACT relating to recyclers and declaring an emergency.

Summary

The law creates a licensing system for anyone who collects, processes, or sells ferrous or non‑ferrous scrap metal in Kentucky. Applicants must be at least 18, pass a name‑based criminal background check, and pay a fee; licenses must be renewed each year and displayed at the business. The measure also defines restricted metal items and declares an emergency so the rules take effect immediately.
