Bill Summary

A BILL FOR AN ACT relating to the Nebraska Litter Reduction and Recycling Act; to amend section 81-1566, Reissue Revised Statutes of Nebraska; to change a termination date; to repeal the original section; and to declare an emergency.

AI Summary

This bill proposes to extend the sunset date (the date when a law automatically expires) for the Nebraska Litter Reduction and Recycling Act from September 30, 2025 to September 30, 2030. The bill maintains the existing requirement that the department must review and evaluate the act's effectiveness at least six months before the termination date to determine whether the Legislature should extend the program. The bill includes an emergency clause, which means it will take effect immediately upon being passed and approved. By extending the sunset date, the bill allows the litter reduction and recycling program to continue operating for an additional five years without requiring a complete legislative renewal of the act at the previously scheduled expiration date.
