“Lithium-ion battery safety has rapidly become a top priority for property owners and managers across the country, as we’re on the front lines of making sure that office buildings and other commercial spaces are kept safe,” said Manuel Moreno, Chair and Chief Elected Officer of the Building Owners and Managers Association (BOMA) International. “This legislation will help protect the safety of millions of people in the nation’s commercial buildings as well as the safety of first responders who have to confront these intense chemical fires. This legislation will save lives.”
BOMA International worked to raise the profile of the issue and assemble support in Congress, along with a wide coalition from fire fighters and fire chiefs to companies that rely heavily on micromobility devices such as DoorDash and Grubhub. For more information on the threats posed by unregulated lithium-ion batteries, BOMA International released a Policy Brief, ”Battery Fires From Electric Bikes and Scooters.”
