On March 19, 1991 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on March 28, 1991 and was referred to the Senate Environment committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 17, 1991. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. On May 9, 1991 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote.
