House: Accompanied a study order, see H5149

Summary

The bill changes how often facilities that use large amounts of toxic chemicals must create reduction plans, sets a six‑year certification cycle, caps required continuing‑education hours, and exempts certain federally‑mandated toxic uses from fees. It mainly affects large‑quantity toxics users and certified professionals who handle those substances. The goal is to streamline reporting, make certification more predictable, and reduce unnecessary costs.
