The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 1997 and referred to the House Environment and Agriculture committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 15, 1997. The committee held a work session on January 21, 1997. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 13–0. On March 18, 1997 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 27, 1997 and was referred to the Senate Environment committee. The committee voted unanimously, 4–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it. On May 6, 1997 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 22, 1997 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. It became law without the governor's signature on June 4, 1997, as Chapter 101. The governor neither signed it nor returned it, and the docket records it as enacted under Part II, Article 44 of the state constitution.
