Essential services buildings.
Summary
The Essential Services Buildings Seismic Safety Act of 1986 requires the appropriate enforcement agency, which in the case of state-owned facilities is the Division of the State Architect, to review the design and inspect the construction of essential services buildings or the reconstruction, alteration, or addition to any essential services building, as provided. This bill would make technical, nonsubstantive changes to these provisions.

MINOR
No substantive policy changes were made to AB 2677 between these two versions. The differences are entirely technical and presentational, reflecting a shift from a traditional legislative document format (with line numbers) to a web page rendering of the same bill text. The actual statutory language amending Section 16009 of the Health and Safety Code is identical in both versions.
TECHNICAL
The document formatting changed from a numbered-line legislative layout to a web page capture that includes navigation elements (skip to content, home, accessibility, FAQ, etc.) and metadata fields. The underlying bill text, digest, and section references remain unchanged.
