Referred: Emerging Issues(H)
Summary
The bill would make owners of large solar farms (2 MW or more) submit a detailed plan for dismantling the project and restoring the land, and provide financial guarantees, before they can start generating electricity. It also sets notice, registration and reporting rules, and adds penalties if owners fail to follow the plan. The purpose is to protect landowners and ensure sites are cleaned up when a solar farm stops working.
