Bill > SB876

Introduced Session

This bill creates a green jobs training program to be administered by the Department of Workforce Development. Under the program, DWD must award grants to public or private organizations for the development and implementation of green jobs training programs. The bill defines “green jobs” as jobs that produce goods or provide services that benefit the environment, conserve natural resources, or create renewable energy resources. The bill also allows DWD to require a public or private organization, as a condition of receiving a grant, to provide matching funds at a percentage to be determined by DWD. For further information see the state fiscal estimate, which will be printed as an appendix to this bill.
