  • No impact on individual rights, taxes, or state law beyond permitting facility use.

  • Procedural steps (March 18–26, 2025): Read and placed on calendar; read and adopted in the House; placed on action calendar under legislative rules (Rule 51/52); adopted in concurrence by the House; Senate message recorded as “Adopted in concurrence” on March 26, 2025.
