AN ACT CONCERNING MINOR REVISIONS TO DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION RELATED STATUTES.

Summary

The legislation updates several Department of Energy and Environmental Protection statutes. It allows a portion of open‑space and watershed grants to fund restoration, protection, or urban‑agricultural use of land owned by distressed municipalities, targeted investment communities, or nonprofit conservation groups, and it clarifies how prior conservation easements affect state land acquisitions. It also creates targeted rebates for low‑income residents in environmental‑justice areas who purchase electric vehicles and a matching‑grant program for zero‑emission school buses and charging infrastructure.
