Bill > B26-0083

This bill makes three technical clarifications to existing District of Columbia laws. First, it modifies the Retail Electric Competition and Consumer Protection Act to expand the definition of a "subscriber organization" by adding the phrase "or government entity" to clarify who can own such an organization. Second, it corrects a measurement unit in the Lead-Hazard Prevention and Elimination Act, changing the referenced lead concentration from "0.7 µg/cm²" to "0.7 mg/cm²", which represents a significant difference in scale. Third, it fixes a typographical error in the Sustainable Solid Waste Management Amendment Act, changing "who manufacturers a" to "who manufactures a" to correct the spelling of "manufactures". The bill is an emergency act that will remain in effect for 90 days, with specific sections applying retroactively to dates in 2013 and 2021. These changes are intended to provide legal clarity and correct minor technical errors in existing DC laws, ensuring precise and accurate statutory language.
