The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2000 and referred to the House Environment and Agriculture committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 6, 2000. The committee held a work session on January 25, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 14–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 9, 2000 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on March 16, 2000 and was referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 4, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On April 6, 2000 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on April 13, 2000 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on April 21, 2000, making it Chapter 72 of the session laws. It took effect on June 20, 2000.
