Environmental protection: environmental data.

Existing law requires the Secretary for Environmental Protection to develop and adopt information technology standards by which public agencies and the regulated community may use computers and other information technology to comply with environmental data reporting requirements, and to establish a standardized electronic format and protocol for the exchange of electronic data for the purpose of meeting the environmental data reporting requirements of specified laws. This bill would make nonsubstantive revisions to legislative findings and declarations relative to the purposes of the above-described law.
