Various Energy/Env. Changes.
This document is an amendment to House Bill 385 rather than a standalone legislative bill, so it does not establish new laws or affect specific groups directly. The proposed change expands the definition of "property or equipment" to include hardware, software, and digital infrastructure needed for public water systems, wastewater treatment facilities, and manufacturing facilities. This update ensures that these digital assets are protected under the same legal provisions as physical equipment within the bill's existing framework.
