UMA ON THE HILL:
HOUSE COMMITTEE ADVANCES ENVIRONMENTAL SURETY BONDS: The House Natural Resources and Environment Committee this morning advanced HB-399 by Rep. Noel of Kanab to require those filing law suits on environmental issues to post surety bonds. UMA has been studying this measure and discussing it with the Utah Department of Environmental Quality to ensure that it does not jeopardize primacy for environmental programs under EPA.
