AI Summary

This bill proposes to rename the "State Radio" division within the North Dakota Department of Emergency Services to the "State Emergency Communications Center" across multiple sections of the North Dakota Century Code. The bill makes technical amendments to update references from "state radio" to "state emergency communications center" in various contexts, including definitions related to emergency services, interoperability committees, communication system fees, and other administrative functions. The changes appear to be primarily semantic, updating terminology to more accurately reflect the division's current role and responsibilities in emergency communications and services. These modifications will ensure consistency in language throughout state statutes and provide a more descriptive name for the division that better represents its comprehensive emergency communication functions. The bill passed with overwhelming support in both the House (93-0) and Senate (46-1), indicating broad legislative agreement on the proposed nomenclature change.
