The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the House Resources, Recreation and Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 19, 2013. The committee met in executive session on March 5, 2013 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 17–2 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0727h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0727h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 20, 2013, changing the text of the bill. On March 20, 2013 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 21, 2013 and was referred to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 3, 2013. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2013-1253s). The committee's amendment (1253s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 18, 2013, changing the text of the bill. On April 18, 2013 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 8, 2013 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate AM #1253s (Rep Chandley)” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 14, 2013 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 20, 2013, making it Chapter 32 of the session laws.
