AI Summary
This bill modifies the Tennessee Code Annotated by changing the deadline for submitting reports related to the Water Quality Control Act of 1977 from January 31 to February 15. Specifically, the bill amends Section 69-3-142, replacing all instances of "January 31" with "February 15" in subsections (a), (b), and (d). The change provides state environmental officials with an additional two weeks to compile and submit their annual reports to legislative committees with jurisdiction over environmental matters. The bill is set to take effect on January 1, 2026, which gives state agencies ample time to prepare for the new reporting deadline. While seemingly minor, this adjustment could allow for more comprehensive data collection and analysis before the reports are finalized and submitted to the legislative committees.
