The Story

It was introduced on January 2, 2002 and referred to the Senate Energy and Economic Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 15, 2002. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On January 24, 2002 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on January 31, 2002 and was referred to the House Science, Technology and Energy committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 5, 2002. The committee held a work session on March 26, 2002. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 14–0. On April 4, 2002 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote, then referred it on to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 9, 2002. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 15–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 17, 2002 the House voted to pass it with changes. On April 25, 2002 the Senate adopted “Requests Committee of Conference” on a voice vote. On April 25, 2002 the House adopted “House Acceded to req for Conf Comm” on a voice vote. A committee of conference met on April 29, 2002 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. On May 2, 2002 the House adopted “Conf Comm Report”. On May 2, 2002 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 2, 2002 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 17, 2002, making it Chapter 223 of the session laws. It took effect on May 17, 2002.
