Bill Summary

As enacted, extends the air pollution control board to June 30, 2031. - Amends TCA Title 4, Chapter 29 and Title 68, Chapter 201, Part 1.

AI Summary

This bill extends the Air Pollution Control Board's existence until June 30, 2031, by making two key changes to Tennessee state law. First, it removes a specific subdivision (number 3) from Section 4-29-246(a), which appears to be a technical modification to the board's statutory language. Second, it formally adds the Air Pollution Control Board (which was originally created by § 68-201-104) to a list of state boards or commissions, likely ensuring its continued legal recognition and operational status. The bill takes effect immediately upon becoming law, with the stated rationale of serving the public welfare. While the changes might seem procedural, they are important for maintaining the board's legal standing and ability to continue its work in regulating and monitoring air quality standards in Tennessee.
