Providing for an exemption from remediation costs or other liability from prior commercial pesticide application by the United States army for owners of certain property located in Johnson county.
Died in Senate Committee
Summary
The bill would stop Kansas state agencies from ordering cleanup or charging owners for contamination caused by commercial pesticides the U.S. Army applied before 2005 on property they now own in Johnson County, as long as the land stays non‑residential. If the land is later turned into a home or a daycare, the new owner would have to pay for any needed remediation and must disclose the possible contamination in the deed. The measure failed to advance beyond the Senate committee.
