California law mandates tracking of PFAS in agricultural pesticides

California Governor Gavin Newsom signed A.B. 1603, requiring the state's Department of Pesticide Regulation to identify pesticides containing PFAS. This marks a regulatory first in the U.S. for tracking 'forever chemicals' in agricultural inputs, potentially setting a precedent for other states. The law's implementation details and timeline remain unspecified, and its impact on pesticide availability is uncertain.
