Duster Inhalation Prevention Act

This bill would require the Consumer Product Safety Commission to declare two gases used in compressed air dusters, HFC-152a and HFC-134a, and their derivatives to be hazardous substances under federal law. Any aerosol duster or other aerosol product containing more than 18 mg of these gases would be banned. The Commission would have to make sure manufacturers do not stockpile banned products by making or importing them at more than 105 percent of their recent monthly rate. The Commission could add other propellants used for getting high from dusters to the list by regulation. The bill would not apply to drugs regulated by the Food and Drug Administration.
