The Story

It was introduced on January 19, 2011 and referred to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 10, 2011. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2011-0517s). The committee's amendment (0517s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 9, 2011, changing the text of the bill. On March 9, 2011 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 16, 2011 and was referred to the House Science, Technology and Energy committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 17, 2011. The committee met in executive session on May 17, 2011 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 10–6 to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On May 25, 2011 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
