While the committee strongly agrees with the intent of the bill, the strong 17-4 majority believes that re-referral of SB 135-FN at this time will best serve the interests of protecting New Hampshire's valuable water resources. During 5 subcommittee meetings many areas of concern were uncovered in the details of what was initially assumed to be a simple piece of legislation. One item of contention was the level of the state's 50% share of acquisition/easement costs relative to the applicant's share. Another contentious item was the question of who would be responsible for the stewardship of the lands acquired and where the funds for this would come from. If re-referred, a hard-working subcommittee will be formed to address all of the issues and will present an amended version in January, 2000, which will resolve the many areas of concern uncovered in SB 135-FN."}, {"side": "Minority", "author": "Rep.

Blanchard", "committee": "Resources, Recreation and Development", "text": "This bill creates a matching grant program of up to 50% from the Department of Environmental Services (DES) to assist in the acquisition of land or easements for the purpose of protecting drinking water resources. This bill resulted from a study by DES and Society for Protection of New Hampshire Forests (SPNHF) which documented the unprotected state of the majority of the lands surrounding New Hampshire's public water supplies and increasing the possibility of protecting them. This bill is supported by the NH Municipal Association, the Farm Bureau, BIA, regional planning commissions, towns municipal water suppliers, Society for Protection of New Hampshire Forests and DES. The Minority thinks that this bill is sound water resource management, sound municipal planning, sound economic development and is especially critical now for many New Hampshire communities experiencing soaring development on lands around their public water supplies.
