The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2014 and referred to the House Science, Technology and Energy committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 18, 2014. The committee met in executive session on March 4, 2014 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 14–1 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2014-0645h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2014-0645h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 12, 2014, changing the text of the bill. On March 12, 2014 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 13, 2014 and was referred to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 2, 2014. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2014-1775s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on May 15, 2014. On May 15, 2014 the Senate adopted “Without Objection Rule 3-17 is Suspended to Allow Non-Germane Amendment 1775s NT, 2/3 Necessary”. The committee's amendment (1775s) was adopted on a voice vote on May 15, 2014, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (2014-1838s), offered by Sen. Woodburn, was adopted on a voice vote on May 15, 2014, changing the text of the bill. On May 15, 2014 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 15, 2014 the House adopted “Rep. Wallner moved to Non-Concur with Senate AM and request C of C” on a voice vote. On May 22, 2014 the Senate adopted “Accedes to House Request for Committee of Conference” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Prescott. A committee of conference met on May 27, 2014 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. The Senate adopted the conference report (1932c) on a voice vote. The House adopted the conference report (1932c) on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 4, 2014 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on August 1, 2014, making it Chapter 303 of the session laws. It took effect on August 1, 2014.
