MINOR
The bill was amended to require that water testing results in correctional facilities be provided to incarcerated individuals and staff only upon request, rather than being automatically accessible to them. This change adds a procedural step for accessing these reports while maintaining public availability online.
Scope change
The scope of access for incarcerated individuals and facility staff was narrowed from automatic access to access only upon request.
REQUIREMENT
The requirement for making water testing results accessible to incarcerated individuals and staff was changed from being directly accessible to being accessible only upon request.
TECHNICAL
The bill's internal numbering was updated to change the new water testing provision from subdivision 7 to subdivision 8, and the document identifier was updated to reflect the amended version.
