Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to transportation; repealing provisions related to the transportation greenhouse gas emissions impact assessment; modifying a prior appropriation; amending Minnesota Statutes 2024, section 174.03, subdivision 1c; Minnesota Statutes 2025 Supplement, section 174.49, subdivision 6; repealing Minnesota Statutes 2024, sections 161.178, subdivisions 1, 2, 2a, 3, 5, 6, 7, 8; 161.1782; Minnesota Statutes 2025 Supplement, section 161.178, subdivision 4.

AI Summary

This bill repeals provisions related to the transportation greenhouse gas emissions impact assessment, which previously required an assessment of how transportation projects would affect greenhouse gas emissions and vehicle miles traveled, and mandated mitigation strategies if projects were not in conformance with reduction targets. It also modifies a prior appropriation, canceling $3,000,000 of funds allocated for statewide and regional travel demand modeling related to these repealed assessment requirements. Additionally, the bill amends existing statutes to adjust how metropolitan counties can use certain transportation funds, removing the option to use them for projects that meet the requirements of an offset action under the now-repealed greenhouse gas emissions assessment law.
