Suspending limitations on conference committee

jurisdiction, H.B. No. 2201 (Hughes/Estes)







By:  Hughes                                           H.R. No. 2268


R E S O L U T I O N
	BE IT RESOLVED by the House of Representatives of the State of 
Texas, 79th Legislature, Regular Session, 2005, That House Rule 13, 
Section 9(a), be suspended in part as provided by House Rule 13, 
Section 9(f), to enable the conference committee appointed to 
resolve the differences on House Bill 2201 (implementing a clean 
coal project in this state) to consider and take action on the 
following matter:
	House Rule 13, Sections 9(a)(1) and (3), are suspended to 
permit the committee to revise proposed Section 5.558(a), Water 
Code, to read as follows:
	(a)  As authorized by federal law, the commission by rule 
shall implement reasonably streamlined processes for issuing 
permits required to construct a component of the FutureGen project 
designed to meet the FutureGen emissions profile as defined by 
Section 382.0565, Health and Safety Code.
	Explanation:  The change is necessary to conform the meaning 
of the phrase "FutureGen emissions profile" in proposed Section 
5.558(a), Water Code, to the phrase as it is defined by proposed 
Section 382.0565, Health and Safety Code.
