relative to energy procurement agreements for default service.

Maddy summaryThis bill outlines how the state commission should manage energy procurement agreements for customers who do not choose their own electricity supplier. It requires the commission to oversee contracts between utilities and energy providers, ensuring a mix of short, medium, and long-term agreements to balance stable retail prices with wholesale market costs. The legislation also mandates that costs related to renewable energy standards and the administration of default service be paid by these customers, while allowing the commission to take steps to prevent misuse of the default service option.

making an appropriation to address damage done to the seacoast during January storms.

Maddy summaryThis bill authorizes the state to allocate $1 to the Department of Safety to fund infrastructure repairs in Hampton, North Hampton, Rye, Newcastle, Portsmouth, and Seabrook following flooding from January 2024 storms. The legislation allows the governor to issue a warrant to draw this sum from unappropriated treasury funds for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2024. The act takes effect immediately upon passage and designates the money for grants to help these specific coastal towns address storm-related damage.

Co-sponsor HB 1415

Vetoed · New Hampshire House · Co-sponsor

relative to PFAS facility liability.

Maddy summaryHB 1415 establishes strict liability for owners or operators of facilities where per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have been released into groundwater or surface water at concentrations of 100 parts per trillion or higher. The bill defines specific chemical terms and designates any site where PFAS are used, stored, or disposed of as a PFAS facility. Under this law, responsible parties would be required to follow federal regulations for the closure, removal, or decommissioning of tanks, pipes, equipment, and building surfaces associated with PFAS management. Although the bill was vetoed by the governor, the legislature overrode the veto to make it effective law.

Primary HB 1197

Signed into law · New Hampshire House · Lead sponsor

relative to criminal background checks and relative to insurance coverage for intrauterine insemination.

Maddy summaryThis New Hampshire law streamlines the process for obtaining criminal background checks for employees and volunteers in various state departments to help address staffing shortages. It allows more government agencies, such as the Department of Revenue Administration, to take fingerprints directly from applicants instead of relying solely on the Department of Safety's limited number of fingerprinting sites. The bill also permits employers to accept police clearances from local law enforcement if an applicant's fingerprints are unreadable after two attempts, preventing job offers from being withdrawn due to technical issues. These changes aim to speed up hiring and volunteer recruitment while maintaining the requirement for national criminal history record checks.
