ENVIRONMENTAL PRODUCT DECLARATION ACT

Summary

The bill establishes an Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) program within New Mexico’s Department of Environment. It obligates manufacturers of materials such as concrete, steel, glass, asphalt, and others to provide independently verified life‑cycle assessments of their products’ greenhouse‑gas emissions. The program is funded by a $5 million transfer and will produce annual reports to guide reductions in embodied carbon for state construction projects.
