The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 7, 2013. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On February 14, 2013 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 27, 2013 and was referred to the House Fish and Game and Marine Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 25, 2013. The committee met in executive session on May 1, 2013 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 12–1 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On May 22, 2013 the House voted to pass it on a roll call 257–107. The bill was enrolled on May 30, 2013 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 25, 2013, making it Chapter 129 of the session laws. It took effect on January 1, 2014.
