Bill > HB4829

This bill amends the Environmental Protection Act to remove the Environmental Laboratory Certification Committee and its associated responsibilities. Previously, this committee, composed of representatives from various laboratory types and appointed by the Director, had a role in determining assessment schedules for environmental laboratory certification and providing technical review and recommendations for the program. The bill eliminates the requirement for the Agency (Environmental Protection Agency) to obtain the committee's concurrence on assessment schedules and removes all references to the committee's existence and duties, streamlining the process for the Agency to manage environmental laboratory certification.
