begs leave to report as follows:
Your Committee has amended the measure by:

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Energy & Environmental Protection that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of H.B.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Energy & Environmental Protection,
