FIRE PROTECT/FIRE MARSHAL: Provides relative to the sale of fireworks
Read by title, under the rules, referred to the Committee on Commerce.
Summary
The bill revises Louisiana’s fireworks regulations by adding new definitions for “proximate” and “public” displays, banning the sale and possession of specific high‑power fireworks, and limiting when approved fireworks can be sold. It also creates licensing requirements for pyrotechnic operators and special‑effects operators, sets fees for new and renewal licenses, and requires permits for public or proximate displays. These changes aim to improve public safety while still allowing regulated fireworks use.
