Title

Antifreeze and engine coolant, addition of bittering agent (denatonium benzoate) required, exceptions

Description

Under existing law, antifreeze and other engine coolants are not required to contain a bittering agent so as to render them unpalatable.

This bill would require all antifreeze or other engine coolants sold in this state to contain the bitter agent denatonium benzoate.

This bill would provide a limitation of liability to a manufacturer, distributor, recycler, or seller of antifreeze or other engine coolant for any loss resulting from the inclusion of denatonium benzoate in its antifreeze or like engine coolant so long as it is present in the proper concentrations.

This bill would provide exceptions.

This bill would prohibit local laws and ordinances that impose requirements in addition to the requirements imposed in this bill.
