It was introduced on January 5, 2011 and referred to the House Resources, Recreation and Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 18, 2011. The committee met in executive session on January 20, 2011 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 16–1 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0047h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0047h) was adopted on a voice vote on February 9, 2011, changing the text of the bill. On February 9, 2011 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 16, 2011 and was referred to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 24, 2011.
