What it would have done

Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.

Under the environmental improvement fund, the state provides financial assistance to local governmental units for certain projects. The environmental improvement fund is made up of three programs: the clean water fund program; the safe drinking water loan program; and the land recycling (brownfields) loan program, which provides financial assistance for the investigation and remediation of certain contaminated properties.

The bill eliminates the land recycling loan program, which has not provided loans since 2008. Under the bill, current law provisions continue to apply to any outstanding loans under the program that are in repayment. The bill also requires any unallocated balance of moneys appropriated to the land recycling loan program to be transferred to the clean water fund program and requires any moneys received on outstanding loans after the effective date of the bill to be deposited into the clean water fund program.
