An Act to prevent nonprofit institutions from avoiding wetlands or natural resource protections under the so-called Dover Amendment

This bill aims to stop nonprofit organizations, such as religious or educational groups, from using zoning exemptions to bypass protections for wetlands and natural resources. It achieves this by amending state zoning laws to explicitly prohibit these institutions from avoiding wetland and natural resource area regulations while still allowing them to build on other protected lands. The change ensures that environmental safeguards apply equally to nonprofit developments, preventing them from exploiting legal loopholes to harm the environment.
