A06093 Memo:

BILL NUMBER:A6093A

TITLE OF BILL:
An  act  to  amend  the  executive  law,  in  relation to establishing
Amanda's  law  requiring  certain  residences  to  have  installed  an
operable carbon monoxide detector

PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF BILL:
This  legislation  would  mandate  that  all  family dwellings install
carbon monoxide detectors.

SUMMARY OF SPECIFIC PROVISIONS:
Section 1: Amends the standards for installation  of  carbon  monoxide
detectors  to  require  that  they  be  installed  in  all residential
dwellings.
Section 2:  effective date.

JUSTIFICATION:
Current law requires residential dwellings  that  are  constructed  or
offered  for  sale  after  July  30,  2002 to be updated with a carbon
monoxide detector. This legislation would remove the construction  and
sale   provisions,  leaving  it  a  new  requirement  that  all  homes
regardless of construction or sale date be  outfitted  with  a  carbon
monoxide detector.

On  January  17th, 2009 Amanda Hansen, a 16 year old from West Seneca,
New York, died from carbon monoxide poisoning from a defective  boiler
while at a sleepover at her friend's house.

This  legislation  would  create  safer homes for New Yorkers and also
prevent future tragedies from occurring.

PRIOR LEGISLATIVE HISTORY:
None.

FISCAL IMPLICATIONS:
None.

EFFECTIVE DATE:
This act shall take effect on the one hundred eightieth day  after  it
shall have become law.
