Summary

The committee voted to give Senate Bill 2210 a due-pass recommendation; members said the watershed-boundary study is a standalone interim project for the water resources committee and asked sponsors to coordinate calendar placement with related bills.

The House Natural Resources Committee on Oct. 12 voted to recommend a due pass for Senate Bill 2210, a shell bill that would direct an interim study of watershed boundaries and related water-resource topics for the Water Resources Committee.

Representative Haggard moved the due-pass recommendation; Representative Hedlund seconded. Representative Olson asked whether a separate bill meant to create boards across county lines (SB 2276) would render the study unnecessary; committee members said SB 2276 would be considered separately and that SB 2210 remains a standalone study for the interim.

Roll call on the due-pass motion recorded unanimous support in committee. Members noted the study will help inform possible statutory changes related to drains and water flow across county boundaries and agreed sponsors should coordinate floor placement relative to related water bills.
