AB 1025

One-time purchase of equipment under

1989 Wisconsin Act 31

Under current law, the Department of Military Affairs emergency response

training appropriation provides that one of the allowed expenditures is to provide

equipment under

1989 Wisconsin Act 31

. This bill removes that language as the

one-time purchase of such equipment has been completed.

Safety data sheets

Current law relating to hazardous substances information and emergency

planning refers to “material safety data sheets.” This bill removes the word

“material” to conform the statute with current federal terminology.

County, city, village, and town heads of emergency management

Under current law, each county board must designate a head of “emergency

management” and the governing body of each city, village, or town must designate

a head of “emergency management services.” This bill provides that the governing

body of each city, village, or town must designate a head of “emergency

management,” consistent with what is required of county boards, and also changes

other statutory references to be head of “emergency management” for consistency.
