A slate of consumer-related bills by state Sen. Jenny Oropeza have passed the state Senate, the Long Beach Democrat announced Tuesday.

The bills, which still require Assembly approval, are:

  • Senate Bill 104, which would require the California Air Resources Board to regulate industrial use of a greenhouse gas, nitrogen trifluoride, or NF3 widely used in manufacturing TVs, solar panels and microprocessors.
  • SB 148, which would require providers of mammograms to post violation notices online and in areas that are conspicuous to patients.
  • SB 415, which would "improve local oversight of the issuance and transfer of liquor licenses" by increasing from 20 to 30 the number of additional days local governments have to review license applications.
  • The Assembly has not yet set a date to review the bills.
