TO: | Honorable Robert Puente, Chair, House Committee on Natural Resources |
FROM: | John S. O'Brien, Deputy Director, Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | SB343 by Brimer (Relating to county authority to regulate the placement of water wells in unincorporated areas of the county; providing a penalty.), As Engrossed |
The applicability requirements apply to Tarrant, Dallas, and Harris counties. Both Dallas and Harris counties indicated there would be no significant fiscal impact. It is assumed that the fiscal impact for Tarrant County would be similar. Harris County estimates it would receive beetween 750 and 1,000 notices of intent to drill a well per year and the fees would offset the costs of conducting the review.
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
