In short, the catalytic converter law in Delaware makes the purchase and sale of catalytic converters more transparent.<\/p>\n<p>Delaware is one of the states where air pollution is higher than the suggested federal health standards. Therefore, the DMV requires you to pass the emissions test for registration renewal, free of cost. The absence of a catalytic converter can certainly fail you in the emissions test. Even though the DMV allows retests without an extra charge, it requires you to complete all the emission-related requirements before the retest.<\/p>\n<p>In this case, if your converter has been stolen or removed, the repair needed before the retest will be costly. According to data, New Castle County alone has reported 275 stolen converters this year. The increase in thefts alerted the authorities to the bill, which was signed on April 28, 2022.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_House_Bill_296\"><\/span>What is House Bill 296?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/legis.delaware.gov\/BillDetail?LegislationId=79134\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">House Bill 296<\/a> <strong>adds catalytic converters to the items for which scrap metal processors shall create a record and provide information when acquired. The law has also brought in certain amendments that assist law enforcement by providing a mechanism to follow up on converters&#8217; thefts and obtain solvability factors in the ever-growing trend associated with thefts of converters. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This Act also makes technical corrections to conform existing law to the standards of the Delaware Legislative Drafting Manual.<\/p>\n<h3>Record Keeping Checklist for a Scrap Metal Processor in Delaware<\/h3>\n<p>House Bill 296 has made it mandatory for scrap metal processors to record every purchase of articles listed as scrap metal. This will include the following:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Date and time of purchase<\/li>\n<li>Type and grade of scrap metal<\/li>\n<li>Weight of each type and grade<\/li>\n<li>Registration plate number, make and model of the car<\/li>\n<li>Name and address of the seller<\/li>\n<li>Signature of the seller<\/li>\n<li>Signature of the processor<\/li>\n<li>Copy of identification<\/li>\n<li>Photo of the seller<\/li>\n<li>Name of the person making the record<\/li>\n<li>Photo or video of the articles<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In addition, each seller should either submit the date of birth and driver&#8217;s license or a photo ID that gives the physical description, age, sex, and racial details.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Why_are_catalytic_converter_thefts_on_the_rise\"><\/span>Why are catalytic converter thefts on the rise?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When something is as simple as a catalytic converter to steal and can fetch you something close to a fortune by stealing it, we are sure to witness a rise in such thefts.
