Committee clears conceptual amendment lowering Brownfields funding ask; bill advanced as amended
Summary
The committee approved a sponsor-requested conceptual amendment that reduced a proposed Brownfields funding figure from $1,000,000 per year to $500; the amended House Bill 808 passed committee and will move to the floor.
The House Natural Resources Committee approved an amendment to House Bill 808 that substantially reduced the bill sponsor’s originally posted funding figure for a Brownfields-related program.
Committee members discussed language changes and a fiscal note that previously listed $1 million per year for the program. The sponsor agreed to reduce the amount to $500 (testimony and committee discussion described the figure as reduced to $500 in the conceptual amendment language provided to the committee). Committee members then voted to move the bill as twice amended; the motion to amend (changing the dollar figure) and the motion to pass as amended both passed on voice votes with proxies recorded.
Committee leadership and the sponsor indicated they would file the agreed conceptual amendment on the formal amendment sheet before floor consideration. The committee closed executive action on HB 808 after approving the conceptual amendment and moving the bill to the floor.
