Committee sends Senate Concurrent Resolution 110 to House after brief presentation
Summary
The Resources and Conservation Committee voted to send Senate Concurrent Resolution 110 to the House with a "do pass" recommendation after Representative Stephanie Mickelson described it as a document formalizing an agreement between surface-water and groundwater user groups.
Representative Stephanie Mickelson, who represents Legislative District 32 in Bonneville County, asked the Resources and Conservation Committee to approve Senate Concurrent Resolution 110, saying the measure “solidif[ies] what [the surface water coalition and groundwater users] had agreed between the groups.”
The resolution, Mickelson said, reflects negotiations carried out over the summer between surface-water and ground-water interests and is intended to memorialize that agreement.
Committee Chair Representative Shepherd moved that the committee send Senate Concurrent Resolution 110 to the House with a "do pass" recommendation. The motion drew no further questions or extended discussion and passed on a voice vote.
No formal amendments or conditions were recorded during committee action. The committee gave the resolution a prompt hearing and recorded the vote as passed; no roll-call tally was entered into the transcript.
