Summary
Existing law, the Filante Tanning Facility Act of 1988, requires specified notices to be given to customers who use ultraviolet (UV) tanning devices, including warnings relating to the hazards of UV radiation. Under existing law, these provisions are enforced by the Department of Consumer Affairs (DCA) . Existing law requires all documentation to be open to inspection by the DCA and makes the first violation of the act an infraction and all subsequent violations misdemeanors. This bill would repeal the Filante Tanning Facility Act and enact the Nonionizing Radiation Protection Act, which would require the State Department of Public Health to regulate tanning facilities. The bill would require tanning facilities to register with the department and pay a registration fee, to be determined by the department, and to comply with other requirements, including ensuring that all tanning device operators, as defined, are at least 18 years of age and trained pursuant to the department's requirements. The bill would require the department to inspect each tanning facility on a schedule determined feasible by the department, but in no case less frequently than once every 4 years, and would authorize inspection upon complaint or injury report. The bill would make a violation of these provisions an infraction and each violation after the first violation a misdemeanor. By creating a crime this bill would impose a state-mandated local program. The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement. This bill would provide that no reimbursement is required by this act for a specified reason.
