Bill Overview
Analyzed Economic Effects
3 provisions identified: 2 benefits, 0 costs, 1 mixed.
Consumers gain access to stick rockets
Oklahoma removes its ban on selling, giving, distributing, and using skyrockets with sticks, including bottle rockets and stick rockets. Consumer fireworks still need required U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission labels and Department of Transportation markings. Consumer fireworks and novelties can be stored, transported, sold, and used subject to applicable state law and municipal rules.
Licensed sellers can sell fireworks year-round
Oklahoma removes seasonal fireworks sales limits. Licensed manufacturers, distributors, and wholesalers can sell at wholesale or retail, and licensed retailers can sell to residents and nonresidents. Retail purchases must happen at licensed Oklahoma locations with a sales clerk on duty; mail-order consumer sales are prohibited. Retail license holders must be at least 16 and are responsible for safe operation. Storage and sales areas must clearly display “FIREWORKS-NO SMOKING.” Retail sales must follow NFPA 1124, Chapter 7, 2006 Edition; fireworks licensed for sale before November 15, 2009 remain exempt from those standards, but still require licensing. Enclosed retail buildings must meet the 2006 International Building Code. State Fire Marshal inspections are not required before portable stands, tents, or other nonrigid shelters open, but local authorities may inspect them. The Rocket's Red Glare Act took effect upon passage and approval.
Private fireworks displays protected, notice required
Oklahoma counties cannot prohibit private outdoor consumer-fireworks displays held for noncommercial purposes on private property when the fire-risk conditions below apply. No county burn ban or red flag fire warning can be in effect. The stated weather limits are sustained winds at most 20 miles per hour and relative humidity above 25%. Ten-hour dead fuel moisture must also be above 9%. People lighting fireworks for these displays must notify the local responding fire department before lighting any fireworks.
