Agriculture: fertilizer; registration and tonnage fees for composting; eliminate. Amends sec. 8501 of 1994 PA 451 (MCL 324.8501). TIE BAR WITH: HB 5761'26, HB 5763'26
This bill amends Michigan's Natural Resources and Environmental Protection Act to update definitions related to fertilizer and composting products. It clarifies terminology for terms like "composted product," "biosolids," and "manipulated manure" to ensure consistent understanding across the state's agricultural regulations. The changes primarily affect businesses and individuals involved in manufacturing, distributing, or selling fertilizers and soil amendments in Michigan. By refining these definitions, the bill aims to improve regulatory clarity without altering existing fee structures or registration requirements.
