House Environment, Energy and Technology committee approves Jan. 22 minutes, schedules further rule review
Summary
The House Environment, Energy and Technology Committee approved its Jan. 22, 2025 minutes by voice vote and heard presentations on multiple Department of Environmental Quality rule dockets; the committee will not vote on rules today and expects to take up voting at a later date.
The House Environment, Energy and Technology Committee approved the minutes from its Jan. 22, 2025 meeting by voice vote and proceeded to hear multiple Department of Environmental Quality rule dockets without taking votes.
Committee chair opened the session and called for a motion. "Mister chairman, I move that we approve the minutes for Wednesday, January 22, 2025," Representative Furrman said. The chair called for opposition, received none and said, "Thank you. The minutes are approved."
The chair told members the day’s agenda would be limited to rule presentations and public hearings only and that the committee would not vote on rules at this session. The chair said votes on rule dockets are likely to be taken on February 18, giving members time to review materials and ask follow-up questions. The committee also scheduled a follow-up meeting to continue docket consideration on the 30th (date context in transcript).
No contested or final committee votes on rule dockets occurred during this session; agency presenters instead briefed members on several pending and temporary rule dockets and answered questions. The meeting adjourned after members asked questions of Department of Environmental Quality staff and division administrators.
