Votes and committee actions: LD2113 motion carries; LD1730 reported out; other bills set for further work
Summary
During the language‑review meeting the committee carried an 'ought not to pass' motion on LD2113 (sponsor moved 'not to pass'); LD1730 was reported out in pink copy; remaining bills (LD307, LD1966, LD2112, LD2203, LD838, LD2112) had divides, fiscal notes, or were continued for pink‑copy revisions.
The Energy, Utilities and Technology Committee recorded the following formal actions and procedural outcomes during the language‑review session.
LD2113 — integrated grid planning (Representative Ronte, sponsor): Sponsor moved 'ought not to pass' and the motion carried. The transcript records the sponsor moving the 'ought not to pass' recommendation and the motion being seconded (Representative Guyger). Committee roll‑call comments indicate the motion carried with 10 members voting in favor and three members absent. Outcome: committee recommends 'ought not to pass.'
LD1730 — small plug‑in solar devices: Committee staff presented pink language, members accepted the language as reflecting the majority report, and staff noted the fiscal note. Outcome: reported out of committee (pink copy) for the next steps in the legislative process.
LD307 — data center approvals and coordination council: Extensive majority/minority language review occurred; committee directed staff to clarify council membership, the pause end date and whether agencies may accept applications during the interim suspension. Outcome: language to be revised and returned; no final committee vote today.
LD1966 — net energy billing consumer protections and billing labels: Staff and members discussed an ownership exception and how to require objective labeling of combined 'other charges' without imposing large billing reprogramming costs. Outcome: staff to return revised language in pink copy; no final vote today.
LD2112, LD2203, LD838 and others: Staff noted edits and fiscal notes for these bills; several items were divided reports (majority/minority) or carried fiscal notes and were scheduled to return in pink copy for technical review. No final favorable committee passage for these items was recorded in today’s session.
What’s next: Staff will circulate pink copies and revised language on multiple items; committees will reconvene to vote on updated text.
