         FROM:  John Keel, Director    
         
In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on SB633 ( Relating 
to assessments performed before agency adoption of certain environmental 
rules.) this office has detemined the following:
         
         Biennial Net Impact to General Revenue Funds by SB633-As Engrossed
         

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
         
The bill would require the Texas Natural Resource Conservation 
Commission (TNRCC) to complete a draft impact analysis and subsequent 
final regulatory analysis for any proposed major environmental 
rule which would exceed requirements of state or federal laws, 
exceed a requirement of a federal program delegated to the state, 
or which is solely under the general powers of the TNRCC instead 
of under a specific law.  
         
 
          
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government 
is anticipated.
