NY S07070

Establishes regulation of toxic chemicals in children's products by amending Environmental Conservation Law Article 37 with new Title 5, effective 120 days after enactment.

Requires manufacturers to disclose within 12 months whether children's products contain intentionally added "priority chemicals" (including lead, mercury, arsenic, benzene, cadmium, and others) and notify retailers of their presence.

Prohibits sale of children's apparel and novelty products containing priority chemicals beginning two years after the law's effective date, with limited exemptions for enclosed batteries and electronic components.

Authorizes the Department of Environmental Conservation to periodically review and update lists of "chemicals of high concern" and "priority chemicals" based on state, federal, and international health determinations.

Authorizes New York to participate in an interstate chemicals clearinghouse to collect, disseminate, and assess information on chemical hazards and alternatives in children's products across states.
