Beginning January 1, 2013, prohibits a person from operating a drycleaning machine unless (i) a person with specified training is present at the facility during the machine's operation and (ii) certain secondary containment measures are in place. Authorizes the Environmental Protection Agency, by rules adopted before July 1, 2013, to require manufacturers of alternatives to perchloroethylene to provide information about those products to the Agency. Requires the Agency to review the safety and legality of the perchloroethylene alternatives.
