This section preserves State and local laws and other Federal-law duties. Later State or local data-sheet laws must use the Federal sheet’s content and format but may require supplemental information.

(a) This chapter does not override State or local law, change State or local authority except as subsection (b) provides, or change duties or liabilities under other Federal law. (b) A State or local law enacted after August 1, 1985, requiring a facility owner or operator to submit a material safety data sheet must require the same content and format as section 11021(a). A State or locality may require supplemental information, including chemical location and amount, on attachments or by another suitable method.
