The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2006 and referred to the House Environment and Agriculture committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 26, 2006. The committee held a work session on February 21, 2006. The committee voted 13–1 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 1158h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (1158h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 7, 2006, changing the text of the bill. On March 7, 2006 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 16, 2006 and was referred to the Senate Environment and Wildlife committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 18, 2006. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 4, 2006 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote. On May 4, 2006 the Senate adopted “Remove From Table” on a voice vote. A floor amendment (2087), offered by Sen. Johnson, was adopted on a voice vote on May 4, 2006, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (2200), offered by Sen. Hassan, was adopted on a voice vote on May 4, 2006, changing the text of the bill. On May 4, 2006 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 4, 2006 the Senate voted to pass it. On May 11, 2006 the House voted to reject the other chamber's changes on a voice vote. On May 11, 2006 the Senate adopted “Sen. Johnson Accede to House Request for Committee of Conference” on a voice vote. A committee of conference met on May 15, 2006 and May 16, 2006 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. On May 24, 2006 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote. On May 24, 2006 the House adopted “Conf Comm Rprt” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 5, 2006 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 9, 2006, making it Chapter 261 of the session laws. It took effect on June 9, 2006.
