Bill Summary

Relative to certain federally regulated renewable energy facilities. Telecommunications, Utilities and Energy.

AI Summary

This bill amends the existing Chapter 448 of the Acts of 2012 to exclude dams owned or operated by the United States or its agencies, as well as any dam or reservoir licensed, permitted, subject to inspection by, or otherwise regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, from the requirements of Sections 44 through 50 of Chapter 253 of the General Laws. This exemption applies to the state-level regulations covering the inspection and maintenance of dams, as these federally regulated renewable energy facilities are already subject to federal oversight and requirements.
