Bill > S581

This bill makes technical amendments to Section 8 of Chapter 21J of the Massachusetts General Laws, which pertains to the Underground Storage Tank Petroleum Cleanup Fund Administrative Review Board. Specifically, the bill updates references to three industry organizations by adding "or its successor" after each organization's name: the Massachusetts Petroleum Council is replaced with "American Petroleum Institute or its successor", and provisions are added to allow for potential future organizational changes for the New England Convenience Store and Energy Marketers Association, Inc. and the New England Service Station and Automotive Repair Association. These amendments ensure that if these organizations change their names or are succeeded by other entities, the legal references will remain valid and the board's composition can be maintained without requiring further legislative updates. The changes appear to be primarily administrative in nature, aimed at providing flexibility in organizational representation on the review board.
