Amend CSHB 3732 (Senate committee printing) by adding the 
following appropriately numbered SECTION to the bill and 
renumbering the subsequent SECTIONS accordingly:
	SECTION ____.  SELECTIVE CATALYTIC REDUCTION TECHNOLOGY OR 
LOW TEMPERATURE OXIDATION TECHNOLOGY PILOT.  (a)  The Texas 
Commission on Environmental Quality shall select one cement kiln 
stack in a nonattainment or a near nonattainment area for the 
purpose of a pilot test to determine the effectiveness of a 
selective catalytic reduction technology or a low temperature 
oxidation technology as an advanced control technology for reducing 
the nitrogen oxides emissions from the cement kiln stack.  The Texas 
Commission on Environmental Quality shall select a selective 
catalytic reduction technology or a low temperature oxidation 
technology vendor to provide the selective catalytic reduction 
technology or low temperature oxidation technology needed to 
conduct the testing required by this subsection.
	(b)  The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality shall:                      
		(1)  conduct a feasibility study, design, supervise, 
and monitor the testing required by Subsection (a) of this section 
in consultation with:
			(A)  the selective catalytic reduction technology 
or low temperature oxidation technology vendor selected by the 
commission;
			(B)  the owner or operator of the cement kiln 
stack selected for testing under Subsection (a) of this section;
			(C)  representatives of a regional council of 
government of the region in which the cement kiln is located; and
			(D)  a representative of a citizen environmental 
advocacy group active within the region; and
		(2)  verify the accuracy of the results of the testing.                       
	(c)  The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality may 
accept and hold a gift or grant conditioned on its use for testing 
advanced controls for nitrogen oxides emissions from cement kilns 
in a nonattainment or near nonattainment area and use such gifts or 
grants without an appropriation for the pilot test under this 
section.
	(d)  The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality shall:                      
		(1)  not later than December 31, 2008, complete the 
selective catalytic reduction technology or low temperature 
oxidation technology testing required under Subsection (a) of this 
section; and
		(2)  not later than January 1, 2009, prepare and 
deliver to each member of the legislature a report describing:
			(A)  the results of the testing, including whether 
any reduction in nitrogen oxides emissions resulted from the use of 
the selective catalytic reduction technology or low temperature 
oxidation technology; and
			(B)  the costs involved in the installation, use, 
and maintenance of the selective catalytic reduction technology or 
low temperature oxidation technology.
