58:10A-15. Legislative findings The Legislature finds that certain halogenated hydrocarbon chemicals and aromatic hydrocarbon chemicals used as sewage system cleaners are a significant and unnecessary source of water pollution and groundwater contamination. These chemicals are toxic and generally nonbiodegradable. When used to unblock sewage systems they are introduced into the groundwater where they have adverse effects on the health and environment of the citizens of this State. It is declared to be the policy of this State to eliminate the introduction of these toxic chemicals into the groundwaters of this State. L.1981, c. 253, s. 1, eff. Aug. 12, 1981.
