Committees move forward on creating nonprofit to support state sanctuaries
Summary
Senate resolutions (SCR 100 / SR 94) to establish and structure a nonprofit to support sanctuaries and conservation advanced with amendments after DLNR testified in support; committees will clarify task-force leadership language and coordinate with related legislation.
The committees considered SCR 100 and SR 94, which would convene a working group to help establish and structure a nonprofit to support state sanctuaries and conservation efforts.
Jason Olmick of the Department of Land and Natural Resources testified in support and said DLNR stands by its written testimony and is available for questions. The chair proposed amendments to clarify the nonprofit's relationship to pending legislation (SB 3253) and to define co-chair versus chair roles on any ensuing task force. The committees voted to pass the resolutions with those amendments.
Committee members recorded that the amendments would clarify the relationship between the concurrent resolution and the senate resolution, and would refine language about co-chairs and task-force membership. The motion to pass with amendments was adopted and the measures advance to the next stage for further drafting and coordination with the referenced legislation.
