Committee moves to extend 811 utility‑locate program sunset to 2036
Summary
The committee moved and passed Senate Bill 95 to reset the statutory sunset for the 811 utility‑locate program from January 2027 to Jan. 1, 2036, in a voice vote after brief presentation; the bill advances without recorded roll-call tallies.
A committee member told the Transportation, Utilities and Infrastructure committee that Senate Bill 95 is a "very simple bill" that would reset the statutory sunset for the state's 811 utility‑locate program from January 2027 to Jan. 1, 2036.
The chair recognized the measure and Representative Moore moved the bill with Representative Marcus seconding. The committee voted by voice and the chair announced, "Senate bill 95 passes."
The bill, as described to the committee, extends the deadline by which the 811 program must be reauthorized. Committee discussion on this item was brief and focused on the sunset date; no further amendments or substantive debate were recorded.
The committee did not record individual roll‑call votes in the transcript; the chair announced the outcome by voice. The committee then moved on to consider House Bill 322 related to Alabama 811.
