Farmers should be supported in pursuing climate-resilient practices and projects.

I support HB 167, prohibiting the sale of ski, boat, and board waxes that contain intentionally added per and polyfluorinated alkyl substances. People enjoyed these activities before the development of such substances, and can certainly enjoy these sports again without harming the environment. In fact, we can only enjoy the outdoors if it is not harmed. Thank you for your consideration of this matter.

Another nutty highly specific ineffective solution to a much more broad spectrum pollutant which emanates from other higher volume sources. Useless.

This bill is not only unnecessary it will be very expensive and damn near impossible to enforce. Consumers are smart enough to choose what they buy, they do not need the government's help.

There have already been too many cases of cancer from exposure to PFAS in NH. I thought a bill was passed last year banning the sale of items with intentionally added PFAS. If it wasn't passed, then it should have been. Do not permit any PFAS to be added to any item sold in the state. Especially don't allow it on an item that will spread the PFAS into our water system, on a lake or on the ski slopes.
