                                 BILL NUMBER:  S7316

 TITLE OF BILL :
An act to amend the general business law, in relation to articles of
bedding


 PURPOSE OR GENERAL IDEA OF THE BILL :
This bill addresses the growing concerns regarding infestations of
bedbugs.

 SUMMARY OF PROVISIONS :
This bill amends Article 25 (Articles of Bedding) of the general
business law.

Section 383 eliminates the exception for "new" that permitted bedding
that was brought back to the sales location within thirty-days to
still be classified as "new." The definition of "used" is amended and
clarified.

Section 385 requires the additional disclosure on the mandated label
requirement for information regarding the manner of sanitization and
chemicals used for such cleansing.

Section 385-b details how used bedding is transported, stored or sold.

Section 387 will require biannual inspections of bedding
manufacturers.

Section 389-a amends the labeling requirement to require notice that
the bedding is used and that such material has been sanitized.

Section 389-c institutes penalties including the cost of the mattress,
costs for sanitizing said mattress and medical expenses.

 JUSTIFICATION :
Bedbugs have become more prevalent.  News releases have indicated that
bedbugs have appeared in the county's finest hotels like the Ramada
Plaza in San Francisco, the five-star Westin resort in Hollywood,
Florida, and the Regency Inn and Suites in New York City.  According
to the National Pest Management Association, bed bug complaints have
increased 50fold over the last five years, appearing in apartments,
mansions and dormitories in nearly every comer of the country. At one
point this pest was virtually eliminated, however, it has made a
comeback. The problem has even seen legislation proposed at the
federal level. In 2008, Rep. G. K. Butterfield sponsored the "Don't
Let the Bed Bugs Bite Act of 2008."

Cross contamination between contaminated used and new furniture has
contributed to the spread of this pest. This legislation address the
need for sanitizing second-hand bedding, and preventing used bedding
that has not been sanitized from being transported, stored or sold
with new bedding.

 LEGISLATIVE HISTORY :
New bill.

 FISCAL IMPLICATIONS :
To be determined.

 EFFECTIVE DATE :
This act shall take effect on the sixtieth day after it shall have
become a law.
