California AB 2998-ithetha ukuthini kuwe nakwibhedi yakho

Irhuluneli yaseCalifornia uJerry Brown

Kwiveki ephelile,Irhuluneli yaseCalifornia uJeurry Brown utyikitye uMthetho osayilwayo weNdibano 2998 (AB 2998) ibe ngumthetho, yamva nje kuthotho lwemithetho yaseCalifornia egunyazisa imigangatho enokutsha yefenitshala exhonyiweyo yokuhlala.Ukuze sikuqonde ngokupheleleyo ukubaluleka kwesi siganeko sibalulekileyo solawulo lwempilo yendalo esingqongileyo, masiqale sihlole uthotho lwemithetho eyandulelayo ephathelele ekufakweni komlilo ongasebenziyo kugwebu lwefenitshala.

Iphumile nendala-TB 117

I-California Technical Bulletin 117 (emva koku ekubhekiselwa kuyo njenge-TB 117) yasekwa ngo-1975 ukulungelelanisa iimfuno zokutsha zefanitshala yokuhlala exhotyisiweyo.Nangona i-TB 117 ngokobuchwephesha ibingumthetho welizwe laseCalifornia kuphela, iinkampani zefanitshala zilungelelanise iinkqubo zazo zokwenziwa kwilizwe lonke ukuze zihambelane ne-TB 117, kungoko umthetho ube ngumgangatho wokutsha wase-United States wefenitshala yokuhlala exhotyisiweyo.I-TB 117 yagunyazisa ukuba ifanitshala yendawo yokuhlala ihambelane novavanyo oluthile lokutsha, olona vavanyo lubalulekileyo luvavanyo lwemizuzwana eli-12 lomlilo ovulekileyo wogwebu lwangaphakathi lwefenitshala.1 ukwazisa imichiza ebambezela umlilo kumakhaya abathengi.

Ngo-2013, i-TB 117 yalungiswa ngenxa yokwanda kokuqonda malunga neempembelelo zempilo ezinxulumene nokuvezwa kwedangatye kunye nendlela imililo yasekhaya eqala ngayo kwaye isasazeka ngayo.Iqela elikhulu lophando lwezenzululwazi liye laqokelelana kwiminyaka engama-38 ukusukela oko kwapasiswa i-TB 117, nto leyo ebonisa ukuba sesichengeni okuxhaphakileyo kunye nemingcipheko yempilo enokubakhona ngenxa yokusetyenziswa kweento ezithintela amadangatye kugwebu lwefenitshala yokuhlala.Iziphumo ezibini eziphambili ezinxulumene ne-TB 117 kukuba imiphumo yempilo enokubakho ehambelana nokubonakaliswa kwe-flame retardant engapheliyo ibalulekile, kwaye ukusetyenziswa ngokubanzi kwee-flame retardants kwifenitshala yokuhlala akusebenzi ekukhuseleni nasekunciphiseni ubunzima bomlilo wendlu.2

Uhlaziyo lwe-TB 117-2013 lubonisa ingqiqo yokuba imililo yasekhaya idla ngokuqala xa ilaphu langaphandle litshisa umlilo (umzekelo, kwicuba eliqhumayo)1 endaweni yokuba ugwebu lwefenitshala yangaphakathi luvuthe umlilo.Ngaloo ndlela, umgaqo watshintshwa ukuze ungene endaweni ye

Imizuzwana eli-12 yovavanyo lwedangatye elivulekileyo kugwebu lwangaphakathi kunye novavanyo lokutshisa kwilaphu langaphandle lesiqhekeza.3

Abanye baye bayigxeka i-TB 117-2013, besithi nangona iluphuculo, iimfuno zokutsha kwefenitshala kufuneka zikhusele ngakumbi impilo yabathengi kunye nokusingqongileyo. ukuthintela ukusetyenziswa kwento ethintela amadangatye kwifanitshala yokuhlala exhotyisiweyo.5

Ngeentsha?Irhuluneli isayina i-AB 2998

California State Capitol Building

 

I-AB 2998 esandula kupasiswa idlula ngaphaya kwe-TB 117-2013 kuba ijolise ekunciphiseni ukuchanabeka kwekhaya kwiikhemikhali ezibuyiswa ngumlilo ezivela kwiimveliso zabathengi.Ngoku ngowona mthetho ungqongqo e-United States wokulawula ukuvezwa kwedangatye lokuhlala.Ukucaphula ukufumanisa kweLizwe laseCalifornia ukuba "imichiza ebuyisela amadangatye ayidingeki ukubonelela ngokhuseleko lomlilo," i-6 Assembly Bill 2998 inqanda ukusetyenziswa kwe-flame retardant kwiimveliso zabathengi ngeendlela ezilandelayo:

-Ukuthintela ukuthengiswa kunye nokuhanjiswa kweemveliso ezintsha zolutsha, oomatrasi, kunye nefenitshala exhotyisiweyo equlethe iikhemikhali ezibuyisela umlilo kumanqanaba amalunga ne-1,000 kwisigidi ngasinye.

-Ukuthintela upholsterers ekulungiseni, ekubuyiseleni, ekubuyiseleni, okanye ekuhlaziyweni kwefenitshala exhotyisiweyo kusetyenziswa amacandelo okutshintshwa aqulethe iikhemikhali ezikhankanyiweyo ezibuyisela umlilo kumanqanaba angaphezu kwe-1,000 ppm.6

Imida emitsha kwiFlame Retardants inempembelelo yeSizwe

 

Ngokucacileyo, eli sisihlandlo sokuqala ukuba umthetho waseCarlifonia ubeke imida ephezulu kwizongezo ezibuyisela idangatye kwifanitshala yokuhlala.I-AB 2998 ikwabethelela ulwimi lwe-TB 117-2013, oluthintela ngokupheleleyo izongezo ze-flame retardant kwiindidi ezili-18 ezahlukeneyo zeemveliso zolutsha.Ukucaphula i-2017 ye-United States yeKhomishoni yoKhuseleko lweMveliso yoMthengi uxwebhu lwesikhokelo esikhuthaza ukupheliswa kwezongezo ze-organohalogen flame retardant kwiimveliso ezahlukeneyo zabathengi, i-7 AB 2998 lelinye inyathelo elibalulekileyo kulawulo lwezongezo ze-flame retardant kwifenitshala yokuhlala.

 

Nge-AB 2998, iCalifornia iseke umgaqo-nkqubo okhokelayo wokunciphisa ukusetyenziswa kwedangatye kwimveliso yabathengi kwaye ngaloo ndlela ukuvezwa komntu.Ngenxa yokuba abathengi baseCalifornian babandakanya i-11.1% ye-United States ngefanitshala yomntu ngamnye kunye nentengiso yeebhedi, 8 iziphumo ze-AB 2998 ngokuqinisekileyo ziya kufikelela kude.Okushiyekileyo, nangona kunjalo, kukuba ilizwe liphela liza kulandela na.
