Summary
The bill earmarks $50 million from the state’s general fund for the Department of Environment to evaluate and remediate abandoned or neglected contaminated sites, including uranium mines, that have no viable party to pay for cleanup. The funding covers fiscal years 2027 through 2029, and any money left over after 2029 returns to the general fund. This aims to protect public health and the environment in areas impacted by legacy mining.
