A communication from the Department of Energy Resources (see Section 12 of Chapter 25A of the General Laws) submitting proposed regulation for 225 CMR 29.00, Small Clean Energy Infrastructure siting and permitting [a copy of said communication was forwarded to the committee on Telecommunications, Utilities and Energy, as required by law]

This bill is a routine procedural communication from the Department of Energy Resources, not a new law. It submits proposed regulations (225 CMR 29.00) for "Small Clean Energy Infrastructure siting and permitting" to the Telecommunications, Utilities and Energy committee, as required by law. The communication details the proposed rules for how local governments will handle permits for small clean energy projects, but does not change current law. The bill itself only facilitates the regulatory submission process; no new policy changes are enacted here.
