relative to the site evaluation committee for energy facility siting.
This bill modifies the administrative structure of the Site Evaluation Committee for Energy Facility Siting by making it part of the Public Utilities Commission. The change requires the committee to operate under the direct supervision of the commission rather than as an independent body. This adjustment affects how the committee is managed and integrated within the state's energy regulatory framework. The legislation does not alter the committee's core duties or the specific energy projects it reviews.
