Wastewater Infrastructure Pollution Prevention and Environmental Safety Act or the WIPPES Act

This bill requires the Federal Trade Commission to issue regulations requiring entities responsible for the labeling or retail packaging of certain premoistened, nonwoven wipes (e.g., baby wipes, cleaning wipes, or personal care wipes) to label such products clearly and conspicuously with the phrase Do Not Flush and accompanying symbol as depicted under specified industry guidelines.

The commission is authorized to enforce this requirement.
