Bill overview
This bill updates the Arizona Power Plant and Transmission Line Siting Committee’s process for issuing certificates of environmental compatibility. The committee must now consider a wider range of factors when evaluating projects, including existing development plans, wildlife, noise levels, public access, scenic areas, and the overall environment. It also emphasizes the protection of unique areas with biological wealth and rare species, and clarifies rules regarding compliance with environmental standards while prohibiting certain labor-related conditions in project approvals.
