Why is it necessary to permit and inspect AVC product retailers?
The Abusable Volatile Chemical Act was enacted in order to prohibit the retail sale of consumer products that contain abusable volatile chemicals (AVCs) to any person who is less than 18 years of age and to educate the public about the dangers of AVCs. Recreational use of AVCs can cause both short and long-term adverse health effects, including impaired memory, slurred speech, impaired vision, and seizure, as well as permanent loss of muscle control, tremors, nerve damage, and death. AVCs are frequently the first consciousness-altering substances abused by children.
