AN ACT relating to natural resources.

Summary

The bill lets corporations that build and operate sewer lines and treatment plants condemn land needed for their projects when they cannot reach an agreement with the landowner after a good‑faith effort. Before using this power, the company must obtain a permit and discharge approval from the Energy and Environment Cabinet, and anyone can object and have their concerns heard by the cabinet. This adds a new tool for expanding sewage infrastructure while preserving a process for public input.
