Vermont

The Vermont State Legislature passed S 30 and the bill was signed into law by the Governor on June 17, 2019, implementing the requirements of SNAP Rules 20 and 21. The bill does not include labeling and disclosure requirements. The Vermont Agency of Natural Resources is also taking steps to prepare for the development of rules pursuant to Act 65 (2019): An act relating to the regulation of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). Act 65 requires ANR to adopt rules to establish a schedule for the phasedown of the use of HFCs in Vermont.
