AI Summary
This bill aims to streamline Idaho's laws by removing outdated or unnecessary provisions related to the Petroleum Clean Water Trust Fund, which was established to help cover costs associated with petroleum spills. Specifically, it revises how the board of trustees is appointed, removes provisions regarding the distribution of old fund money and the apportionment of moneys, and eliminates references to repealed sections concerning trust registration and obsolete language. The bill also removes a requirement for the director to find that the trust fund has met all other appropriate provisions of Idaho Code before issuing a certificate of registration, simplifying the process. The legislative intent is to ensure state laws are up-to-date and essential, serving the public's health, safety, and welfare.
