ANNAPOLIS, Md.-A bill before the Maryland General Assembly has added a new dimension to the controversy surrounding crumb rubber used as infill in synthetic athletic turf. Maryland House Bill 1142 would set strict standards for recycling crumb rubber-modified turf, although the bill underwent a major change prior to a March 1 hearing before the Environment and Transportation Committee of the Maryland General Assembly.
